Putin Hesitates To Fly To BRICS Summit In Brazil Due To Threat Of Arrest

Putin Hesitates To Fly To BRICS Summit In Brazil Due To Threat Of Arrest725.06.2025, 20:03 3,018 In late 2023, Brazil's president refused to guarantee the security of the Russian dictator.Vladimir Putin has decided not to travel to the BRICS summit in Brazil because of the country's position on the International Criminal Court's warrant in The Hague, Russian presidential aide Yuri Ushakov said Wednesday.He said Russia will be represented by Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov at the summit, which is scheduled for July 6-7."The president will participate via video link in the main events of this summit. This is due to certain difficulties in the context of the ICC requirements, you know, and it is in this context that the Brazilian government could not take a clear position that would allow our president to participate in this meeting," Ushakov said.Brazil is a signatory to the Rome Statute, the basic document on which the ICC operates, and must arrest Putin if he visits, as more than 120 other countries around the world. In late 2023, Brazilian President Lio Inacio Lula da Silva refused to guarantee the safety of Putin, who was then considering a visit to the G20 summit in Rio de Janeiro."If Putin wants to join [the summit], it will be decided by the judicial system, not by my government," da Silva said at the time.In 2023, Putin refused to travel to the BRICS summit in South Africa - also a member country of the ICC - because of the threat of arrest, which accused the Russian president of deporting children from Ukraine's occupied territories to Russia. At the same time, the Kremlin canceled Putin's visits to India for the SCO (Shanghai Cooperation Organization) summit and to Turkey for talks with President Recep Erdogan.In 2025, South Africa will not invite Putin to the G20 summit to be held in Johannesburg on November 21-22, the republic's presidential spokesman Vincent Magwenya warned late last year. "The legal situation has not changed since the BRICS summit in Johannesburg. We have no influence whatsoever on the ICC's decision," he said.PATREONSupport the website Write your comment 7 You can support the website Charter97.orgMULTI-CURRENCY ACCOUNT FOR ASSISTANCE:Bank's name: Bank Millennium S.A.Address: ul.
