The country’s Ministry of Justice recalled that the ICC had already established in a case that even heads of state do not have immunity from the Court.

Austria is a party to the Rome Statute and will fulfill its obligations under it. In particular, this means the arrest and extradition of Russian President Vladimir Putin to the International Criminal Court, if he decides to come to the country. This was stated by the Ministry of Justice of Austria in response to a request from Ukrinform.

“Austria is a party to the Rome Statute. This means that Austria, like all other contracting parties, is obliged to cooperate with the ISS: the arrest warrants issued by the Court must be executed, and the persons sought of the Court should be arrested,” the agency said.

The Ministry of Justice of Austria also emphasized that “in 2019 (in the case of the President of Sudan, Omar al-Bashir – ed.), the ICC has already been established in a case that even the heads of state do not have safety before the Court.”

“No one is above the law, which specifically means that every crime must be fully investigated,” the department stressed, adding that there should be no impunity.

As you know, on March 17, the ICC issued an arrest warrant for Russian President Vladimir Putin and Children’s Ombudsman Maria Alekseevna Lvovo-Belova. They are suspected of involvement in the illegal deportation of Ukrainian children.

Meanwhile, Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban’s chief of staff said his country would not arrest Putin if he came to the country.
