Biden supports ICC warrant for Putin's arrest.
TL;DR Summary
US President Joe Biden has welcomed the International Criminal Court's decision to issue an arrest warrant for Russian President Vladimir Putin for war crimes in Ukraine. The ICC decision marks the first time the court has issued a warrant against one of the five permanent members of the UN Security Council. While there is no immediate prospect of Putin facing arrest, legal experts have pointed to the examples of former Serbian leader Slobodan Milošević and Liberia’s former president Charles Taylor as international leaders who wound up in the dock in The Hague.
