Any attempt to arrest President Vladimir Putin after the International Criminal Court (ICC) issued a warrant for the Kremlin chief would amount to a declaration of war against Russia, his ally Dmitry Medvedev said on Thursday.

The ICC issued an arrest warrant on Friday, accusing Putin of the war crime of illegally deporting hundreds of children from Ukraine. It said there are reasonable grounds to believe that Putin bears individual criminal responsibility.

"What would that be? It would be a declaration of war on the Russian federation," he said in a video posted on Telegram."And in that case, all our assets – all our missiles et cetera – would fly to the Bundestag, to the chancellor's office." Nuclear risks had risen, he said. "Every day's delivery of foreign weapons to Ukraine brings closer the nuclear apocalypse."

He said the West now wanted to crack Russia apart into a host of weaker states and steal its vast natural resources.
