The Russian President is wanted for “credible allegations” about his alleged role in war crimes in occupied regions. Putin is accused of being responsible for the deportation of children from Ukraine into Russia. Moscow has always denied carrying out atrocities since the invasion.
The International Criminal Court (ICC) has issued an arrest warrant for Russian President Vladimir Putin, accusing him of abducting children from Ukraine.
It also issued a warrant for the arrest of Maria Alekseyevna Lvova-Belova, Russia’s commissioner for children, on similar allegations of war crimes.
The Kremlin said Russia found the questions raised by the ICC “outrageous and unacceptable”.
They added that the warrants are “null and void” as Russia does not recognise the ICC and has not signed up to the Rome Statutes , the treaty underpinning the world’s permanent war crimes tribunal.
