The International Criminal Court has issued an arrest warrant for Russian President Vladimir Putin.
The Hungarian political party Fidesz does not support a resolution to arrest Russian President Vladimir Putin as part of a warrant issued by the International Criminal Court. This was announced on Wednesday, April 19, by the deputy head of the Hungarian Democratic Coalition Party, Agnes Vadai, at a press conference.
According to Vadai, the Hungarian government has previously stressed that it will not be able to arrest the head of the Kremlin, Vladimir Putin, because although it has ratified the Rome Statute of the ICC, it has not implemented it into national law.
“It is clear that Viktor Orban serves Vladimir Putin and will not allow the Russian president to be arrested if he goes to Hungary. Orban is interested in Putin and making money, not the fate of the Ukrainian children kidnapped by Russia,” said Vadai.
According to Fidesz, Budapest has no legal basis to arrest the Russian president: Hungary only formally approved the Rome Statute, but did not change the law to implement it.
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.
