Popular Post webfact Posted March 17, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted March 17, 2023 By Antoinette Radford & Frank Gardner, BBC security correspondent BBC NewsThe International Criminal Court (ICC) has issued an arrest warrant for Russian President Vladimir Putin. The court alleges he is responsible for war crimes, and has focused its claims on the unlawful deportation of children from Ukraine to Russia. It says the crimes were committed in Ukraine from 24 February 2022 - when Russia launched its full-scale invasion. Moscow has denied the allegations and labelled the warrants as "outrageous".

Popular Post twix38 Posted March 17, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted March 17, 2023 (edited) About time! Putin the criminal has been poisoning folk abroad, locking up opposition, enriching himself and sanctioning war crimes whilst running a regime that constantly lies with impunity for long enough. At least now he is labelled and a home-body. Look forward to seeing the Chinese President meeting his friend the indicted war criminal lol Edited March 17, 2023 by twix38 4 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Bkk Brian Posted March 17, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted March 17, 2023 Who would have thought just over a year ago it would lead to this. President of the worlds largest country having an arrest warrant issued for unlawful deportation of children from Ukraine to Russia. A symbolic but important gesture and a prayer that those kids will be re united with their families where possible. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brucegoniners Posted March 17, 2023 Share Posted March 17, 2023 That will do a lot of good. I don't suppose someone in Mother Russia could make a citizen's arrest could they? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Social Media Posted March 18, 2023 Share Posted March 18, 2023 The Kremlin slammed the court's decision to issue an arrest warrant for Putin 'outrageous and unacceptable'; in contrast, Ukraine hailed the decision and said 'the wheels of justice are turning'.O 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoilSpoil Posted March 18, 2023 Share Posted March 18, 2023 This will corner Putin even more and will make him increasingly desperate and dangerous. Why doesn't NATO deflate the situation first, give Putin a possible way out of this conflict and once the war is over then go for him? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post spidermike007 Posted March 18, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted March 18, 2023 Putin has been a serial killer for a long time now. And he has stolen and extorted tens of billions. Now, he is slaughtering women and children. So, yes he is a felon, and has been for a long time, it just took awhile for the international community to label him as such. The world would be a far better place without this monster. 3 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why doesn't NATO deflate the situation first, give Putin a possible way out of this conflict and once the war is over then go for him? He already has a way out, if he cares to take it. Just stop the fighting in Ukraine, retreat from ALL the lands Russia has conquered including the Crimea, return all the Ukrainian children to the Ukraine. The problem with that IMHO, is that Putin is riding a tiger, and cannot get off without being eaten. 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A big nothing burger What does America not recognizing the Court's jurisdiction have to do with anything? This is a major court, and being charged is both serious and embarrassing for Putin. Let's see where he goes the next time he leaves Russia. His circle of places to go is limited, and most of the places he would be safe traveling to are not going to raise his profile on the international stage. He's a pariah. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
