Putin ally proposing banning ICC in Russia FMTNews FMTWorld
Russian president Vladimir Putin was accused of illegally deporting hundreds of children from Ukraine.
Vyacheslav Volodin, an ally of Putin’s, said that Russian legislation should be amended to prohibit any activity of the ICC in Russia and to punish any who gave “assistance and support” to the ICC. Volodin said that the US had legislated to prevent its citizens ever being tried by the Hague court and that Russia should continue that work.The ICC issued an arrest warrant earlier this month accusing Putin of the war crime of illegally deporting hundreds of children from Ukraine.Russian officials have cautioned that any attempt to arrest Putin, Russia’s paramount leader since the last day of 1999, would amount to a declaration of war against the world’s largest nuclear power.
The Kremlin says the ICC arrest warrant is an outrageously partisan decision, but meaningless with respect to Russia.
