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.

Nothing will happen to him so stop it

Now do the same for bush jr and obama

Get pressure from the UN and US to start WW3.

Same as Biden keep selling weapons to other countries,! U.S. no better than the other- Mr. Evil

Nothing will happen .. Putin will never be arrested

U.S. and Nato purposely instigated and caused this war... Russia is NOT the enemy. Russia is doin wat a good leader does.... DEFEND HIS COUNTRY AND PPL.

People remember that CBC is a Canadian state sponsored/owned/controlled organization and that stories are often skewed to appease the owner

Like to see them try to to get him good luck he will bomb the shit out of everything

Nothing…..

Special Forces are coming for you!

That's as effective as hen's teeth.

What’s happening in our country is more important. Focus on Canada’s problems.

Nothing.

Maybe putin and trump could become cell buddies😂😂

He needs to get a lawyer and turn himself in. He'll then be bailed and probably told not to go to Ukraine or contact any Ukrainians before his trial.

Putin arrest warrant & clown circus called InternationalCriminalCourt. 'Its not facism or WarCrimes when we do it!' Are similar warrants going to be issued for US & western leaders for crimes against humanity of past 25 yrs? Hypocrisy Duplicity Propaganda CivilizedWest

He doesn’t travel to the countries where he’s warranted to be apprehended for possible jail time. That’s what happens. The war doesn’t win and news media should stop covering it because it essentially glamourizes hate/NATO and other war groups to “get on television” for vanity

libs / ndp = china

Is Canada going to take responsibility for the war crimes in Libya? Or is the ICC only for your enemies?

Russia should pull back, but this in reality is more PR fluff. Not to mention who sanctioned and targeted members of the ICC to prevent investigations? “Many others have not (ratified), including key members of the UN Security Council — the U.S., China and Russia….”

How many innocent people were killed under the watch of Clinton, Bush and Obama? How many countries did they invade?

Russia, Ukraine, US are not members of the ICC self proclaimed authority. They accuse Putin of war crimes because he allowed Russian speaking children to seek safety in Russia. While Zelensky abducts teenagers off the streets and sends them to the Bahkmut meat grinder to die!

Sure

Send in the social workers !!

We wait. At some point he either comes to trial, or he dies.

I hope in the end the fugitive will face justice. Or at least end up like Hitler.

The United States refuses to be part of the ICC and has worked to de-legitimize it. China will now push Russia and Ukraine to talk, and hopefully find a resolution to achieve a cease fire and further talks. All while we pushed away diplomatic efforts for peace...

This is nonsense. Dissolve the ICC. You can't pretend to be an honest broker when you are obviously doing the bidding of certain parties. Supernational organizations should all be dissolved, including the UN. National authority must be pre-eminent.

Putin hiding in bunker

What happens next

Write one up for Trudeau too.

Everyone in Russian Politics, The Russian Army, and Everyone on their Propaganda News Casts, should be Prosecuted.

calm down with with the anti-Russian hysteria. Meanwhile Israel keeps killing Palestinians

What happens now is Russia and Putin laugh off such a absurd verdict. Let's keep praying for a Russian Victory to end this Ukrainian initiated War

Well then lots of world leaders will be having warrants for their arrest very soon we hope, oboma,bush,Blair,zelinsky,and many many more let’s get it rolling if we’re going to do this fair is fair

Probably world war three because of western interference

What is truly “horrific partisanship” is Trudeau covering up the election help he got from Beijing—and then appointing a “family friend” and member of the Beijing-funded Trudeau Foundation to “rapporteur” about it.

His response was hilarious

Nothing.

Still waiting for arrest warrants for Bush, Netanyahu and the Saudi King

Try to get him. This is just a silly political attack.

He is a horrible person

Absolutely nothing?

Pocket court has been created by states committed crimes in recent years.

Literally nothing as this is yet dumbest shit ever.

Mr Putin, will laugh and laugh again. Russia is not a signatory to the Rome statutes.

Would that be like the fake Bill Gates arrest warrant ?

Cool. Now do Trudeau.

The ICC is not even recognized by the US. If the ICC were a serious organization, many American politicians would have arrest warrants for Irak. This is just another act paid for by American tax payers and supported by the European governments that serve as American whors.

Two recent international initiatives thus recognize Russian war crimes in Ukraine: 🔴ICC arrest warrant for Putin, 17 March: 🔴United Nations report on Russian war crimes, 15 March:

tRump might need a roommate.

What happens now, we issue one for JustinTrudeau for aiding and abetting ethnic cleansing

CBC still stays ridiculous?

As evil as he is and as much as we all want to see him hang, he will never see the inside of a courtroom in the Hague let alone a prison cell.

Country that arrests him, will basically be wiped off the map….

My question is who's going to arrest him

just quit with that bull crap, what kind of micky mouse organization is it anyway i guess all the holy guys are in there, just don't question them.

Nothing is happening! It’s a joke 🤣

i don't say what putin did was good. but really!! all the us president's did a lot of war crimes bush / clinton / bush II obama / biden. just saying trump did the least why did they never arrested them? don't even talk about the vietnam war. how legal was that

Sure hope he turns himself in

The RCMP will get him.

Probably nothing. Why rush to the Kinetic and final step of WWWIII?

Nothing

Nothing until he goes outside Russia. And that ain’t happening.

Hopefully we send as many fighter jets as possible as quickly as possible so the Ukrainians can push the Russians out of Crimea. If they can strike within Russia even better!

GWBush would be tried for war crimes also for his illegal war in Iraq looking for WMD that never were if the usa belonged to the ICC

A whole lotta nothing. This is completely symbolic and we need to stop lying to the public for clicks.

They'd have greater credibility if they issued one for Bush & Cheney, too.

Nothing, it's a circus not a court. Putin isn't guilty of anything besides protecting Russian speaking citizens in Ukraine. Now if it was a legitimate court every American President would have been tried and convicted since WWII.

STFD 😅😅😅

Will they issue arrest warrants for the war criminal George Bush? How about Barrack Obama?

Lmao literally nothing 😂

Trials at The Hague, followed thereafter by prison.

is his foreign secretary lavrov issued a warrant also?

Nothing will happen. same for any of the American presidents involved in leveling the middle east

Arrest warrant for the man sitting atop the most powerful nuclear arsenal in the world LOL OK.

The Anglo-Holy Roman International Kangaroo Court.
