On March 17, the ICC Pre-Trial Chamber issued an arrest warrant for Russian President Vladimir Putin and Children’s Ombudsman Maria Lvova-Belova. The Russian leader’s press secretary, Dmitry Peskov, said that simply raising the issue of the ICC decision is unacceptable, Moscow does not recognize the jurisdiction of this court and none of its decisions are null and void from the point of view of the law. He wrote on his Telegram channel that in June 2020, then US President Donald Trump signed an executive order authorizing sanctions against ICC members “in response to their idea of ​​investigating crimes in Afghanistan”.
