The ICC's arrest warrant for Putin: A futile move?
TL;DR Summary
The ICC's arrest warrants for Putin and his commissioner for children's rights only expose the irrelevance, compromise, and cowardice of the court. The ICC seems to curry favor with its western sponsors instead of casting the light of justice over the war crimes and crimes against humanity committed by the US-led west. The UK welcomes the decision on Putin, but it is unrealistic to think that there will be an arrest anytime soon. No such warrant has ever been issued for Tony Blair.
