ICC Warrant: Kremlin “not worried” about Putin’s visit to Mongolia

Vladimir Putin has received assurances ahead of a planned visit to Mongolia that he will not be arrested on an International Criminal Court warrant, according to Bloomberg.

Moscow is “not worried” about the fact that Mongolia has joined the Rome Statute, which recognizes the International Criminal Court (ICC), due to the upcoming visit of Russian dictator Vladimir Putin to Ulaanbaatar. Kremlin Speaker Dmitry Peskov said this at a briefing on Friday, August 30.

“No, there are no concerns we have good talks with our friends from Mongolia,” he told reporters when asked.

Peskov was asked if negotiations had taken place with the Mongolian authorities regarding the warrant issued by the ICC.

“Of course, all aspects of the visit were carefully prepared,” Peskov said.

In this regard, Bloomberg wrote, citing two sources, that Vladimir Putin received assurances before his planned visit to Mongolia that he would not be arrested on a warrant from the International Criminal Court.

It is understood that Putin’s visit to Mongolia will be his first to an ICC member country after an arrest warrant was issued for him in March last year for organizing the deportation of thousands of Ukrainian children to Russia.

It should be noted that Mongolia signed the Rome Statute in 2000. However, the country ratified it in 2003. Thus, it is a party to the International Criminal Court and is obliged to abide by its decisions.

In December 2023, a judge from Mongolia became an ICC judge for the first time. The country’s President Ukhnaagiin Khurelsukh said that this is “a sign of the growth and strengthening of the country’s reputation in the international arena and the trust of international organizations in Mongolia.”
