The Putin Question: Can He Be Arrested?

Russia's ex-President Dmitry Medvedev has warned that any attempt to arrest President Vladimir Putin abroad would be seen as "a declaration of war." The International Criminal Court (ICC) issued an arrest warrant for Putin last week for alleged war crimes. Meanwhile, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy visited the partly Russian-occupied region of Kherson on Thursday, pledging to "rebuild' the area to its former pre-occupation state. Leaders of the European Union are meeting in Brussels on Thursday for the European Council summit, where they are set to formally sign off on a deal to fast-track €2 billion ($2.1 billion) worth of ammunition deliveries to Ukraine.
