The Kremlin stated it is not worried about the possibility that Mongolia could arrest President Vladimir Putin during his visit, despite Mongolia being an ICC member with an outstanding warrant for his arrest.

Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov stated there are no worries about Putin's arrest in Mongolia, citing good relations and careful preparation of the visit.

The Ukrainian Side hopes that the Government of Mongolia is aware of the fact that Vladimir Putin is a war criminal. The International Criminal Court, the jurisdiction of which is recognized by Mongolia, has issued a warrant for his arrest on suspicion of the illegal forced transfer of Ukrainian children to the Russian Federation.

These individuals are guilty of the war of aggression against Ukraine, atrocities against the Ukrainian people, murders, rapes, robberies, shelling of civilian infrastructure, and genocide.

Mongolia, as an ICC member state, is obligated to comply with the arrest warrant for Vladimir Putin during his upcoming visit

In case of non-cooperation, ICC judges may make a finding to that effect and inform the Assembly of States Parties
