NAIROBI (Reuters) - Kenya's president said it could be forced to halt cooperation with the International Criminal Court if it requires both him and his deputy - both charged with crimes against humanity - to attend hearings in The Hague at the same time.

The West has urged Nairobi to cooperate with the ICC because it failure to do so would undercut contacts with Nairobi seen as crucial to its role as a regional bulwark against militant Islam. Kenya is also a big recipient of U.S. and European aid.
