Ukraine Urges Mongolia to Arrest Putin

Ukraine has requested that Mongolia arrest Russian President Vladimir Putin during his visit on September 3, based on an International Criminal Court (ICC) warrant. The Ukrainian Foreign Ministry made this call to action public via Telegram, urging Mongolia to comply with the ICC's mandate.

Ukraine on Friday urged Mongolia to arrest Russian President Vladimir Putin, who is scheduled to visit the country on September 3, citing an International Criminal Court (ICC) warrant.

"We call on the Mongolian authorities to comply with the mandatory international arrest warrant and transfer Putin to the International Criminal Court in the Hague," stated the Ukrainian Foreign Ministry in a Telegram post.

The arrest warrant from the ICC positions Putin as subject to international legal actions, and Ukraine's appeal highlights the broader geopolitical tensions surrounding his administration.
