Russia's Putin arrives in ICC member Mongolia
ai generated text
Mongolia's decision to host Vladimir Putin has raised concerns about its obligations as a signatory to the Rome Statute, which requires member states to detain individuals with outstanding arrest warrants from the International Criminal Court. Despite this, Putin's visit to Mongolia has proceeded without incident, with the Kremlin's spokesman expressing no concerns. Kyiv has urged Mongolian authorities to execute the arrest warrant, but it appears that Putin faces little threat of arrest in the country. This visit marks Putin's first to a member state of the International Criminal Court since his indictment on war crimes charges last year.
Putin, who couldn't hate our foreign policy more, is making this visit to get Mongolia removed from the ICC. Our foreign minister should be fired. Such political renunciation is unacceptable!
Any trip to an ICC member state that does not end in arrest will encourage President Putin's current course of action and must be seen as part of a strategic effort to undermine the ICC's work.
Of course, all aspects of the president's visit have been carefully prepared.
We have an excellent rapport with our partners from Mongolia.
The main goal that the enemy set itself, to stop our offensive in Donbas, hasn't been achieved. Moreover, we're now talking not about advancing 200 or 300 meters. We haven't had such pace of our offensive in Donbas for a long time.
We always respond to our Mongolian friends' requests for assistance in meeting the growing needs for fuel and lubricants at preferential prices.
Without its own police force, the ICC must rely on states and the international community to assist in arrests.
It would be truly astonishing if Mongolia were to sacrifice the advantages of continued good relations with Russia in that way.
Welcoming Putin, an ICC fugitive, would not only be an affront to the many victims of Russian forces' crimes, but would also undermine the crucial principle that no one, no matter how powerful, is above the law.
