ICC warrant for Putin sparks international controversy and threats.
TL;DR Summary
Hungary's chief of staff, Gergely Gulyas, has said that the country would not arrest Russian President Vladimir Putin if he entered Hungary, despite the International Criminal Court (ICC) warrant for alleged war crimes. Gulyas called the warrant counterproductive and said that arresting Putin would go against Hungarian law since Hungary has not widely incorporated the ICC's statute into its legal system. Putin is unlikely to face a trial from the warrant, but it could limit his ability to travel to the ICC's 123 member nations.
