Mongolia–Russia : Despite the International Criminal Court (ICC) issuing a warrant to arrest Russian President Vladimir Putin, Putin is set to travel to Mongolia. Mongolia is the first country to be a member of the ICC. In such a situation, Putin's arrest is feared. However, the Kremlin (official residence of the President of Russia) said that we have no concerns about Putin's visit to Mongolia. It is worth noting that Mongolia is a member of the ICC and this court had issued a warrant for Putin's arrest last year.
ICC issues warrant in Ukraine case
According to reports, Putin is scheduled to visit Mongolia on December 3. This will be Putin's first visit to an ICC member country despite the ICC issuing an arrest warrant in March 2023. The ICC had issued a warrant against Putin for suspected war crimes in Ukraine. According to the 'Rome Statute' of the treaty establishing this court, if an arrest warrant is issued against a person and that person sets foot in an ICC member country, then it is the responsibility of that country to arrest him. The court has no enforcement mechanism to enforce its orders.
