In connection with the announced visit of Russian leader Putin to Mongolia, I call on the competent authorities of this country to ensure the execution of the International Criminal Court warrant for the arrest of this war crimes suspect
He noted that the warrant for Putin's arrest in the case of the war crime of mass illegal deportation and transfer of Ukrainian children was issued by the Pre-Trial Chamber of the International Criminal Court in March 2023, and Mongolia, as a signatory to the Rome Statute, has an obligation to cooperate fully with the ICC under its Article 86.
This means detaining the suspect and handing him over to representatives of the International Criminal Court.
