Putin To Visit ICC Member Mongolia On September 3, Says Kremlin

Russian President Vladimir Putin will visit Mongolia, which is a member of the International Criminal Court (ICC), next week, the Kremlin said on August 29. The ICC issued an arrest warrant for Putin in March 2023, accusing the president of being responsible for the illegal deportation of children from Ukraine, which constitutes a war crime. "On the invitation of the President of Mongolia Ukhnaa Khurelsukh, on September 3, 2024 Russian President Vladimir Putin will make an official visit to Mongolia to participate in ceremonial events dedicated to the 85th anniversary of the joint victory of Soviet and Mongolian forces over Japanese militarists on the Khalkhin Gol River," the Kremlin said.
