The International Criminal Court’s decision to issue an arrest warrant for Russian President Vladimir Putin has sparked a grim mood in Moscow.
The circle of the Russian dictator is now narrowing, it is becoming more and more toxic both for the outside world and within the country. The Kremlin is unhappy with what is happening around Putin’s face. The Russian elite is aware of the sad prospects, namely the geopolitical catastrophe of the Putin regime. Andrey Yusov, a representative of the Main Intelligence Directorate of the Ministry of Defense, said this on the air of the national telethon.
And so, we are already talking about the search for Putin’s successor and it is no longer Putin who is looking for him,” he noted.
The GUR also stressed that Russian propagandists did not come out with their traditional show, where they discussed The Hague. For the very fact of discussing a warrant for Putin’s arrest for the Russian population “would be a strange and too alarming call.”
Because to tell that the “special operation” is going according to plan, and then to receive a wanted list and a warrant for arrest from the ISS, it will be difficult even for Solovyov and Skabeeva to connect these things together,” Yusov explained.
Recall, the International Criminal Court in The Hague on March 17 issued an arrest warrant for Russian President Vladimir Putin, accused of war crimes in Ukraine.
In particular, the head of the aggressor country should be arrested in the Republic of South Africa during his planned visit to the country for the BRICS summit in August 2023. The country is one of 118 states that have ratified the Rome Statute of the ISS, so South Africa is legally bound to enforce Putin’s arrest warrant.
