The International Criminal Court (ICC) issued an arrest warrant on Friday against Russian President Vladimir Putin over the invasion of Ukraine. What happens now?
CBC NewsRussian President Vladimir Putin attends a meeting of the Prosecutor General's Office Board in Moscow on Wednesday. Russian officials have denied allegations of war crimes in Ukraine and say an arrest warrant from the International Criminal Court for Putin is meaningless.
But if Putin were to set foot in any of those other countries, they'd have to arrest him, said Payam Akhavan, a senior fellow at the University of Toronto's Massey College and an adviser on genocide to the ICC prosecutor. He'd then be sent to The Hague for trial.
However, with no armed body to enforce its warrants, the ICC has minimal power to arrest people and instead must rely on the security forces of member states.
