British soldiers, not Tony Blair, face war crime trials over Iraq War

Prosecutors at the International Criminal Court (ICC) have ruled out putting former British prime minister Tony Blair on trial for war crimes as they prepare to examine the Chilcot report about the Iraq War.

The Chilcot Inquiry, established in 2009 to investigate the UK’s role in the Iraq War, will publish its long-awaited 2.6 million-word report on Wednesday.
