Putin arrest warrant will stand even if US-led peace talks agree Ukraine amnesty, ICC prosecutors say
The ICC's investigation into alleged war crimes will continue despite peace negotiations, with the U.N. Security Council able to defer cases temporarily, deputy prosecutor Nazhat Shameem Khan said.
- On Friday, Deputy prosecutor Nazhat Shameem Khan said the International Criminal Court's investigation into Ukraine cannot be halted by peace talks, though the U.N. Security Council can request a temporary deferral.
- In recent weeks, negotiators from the U.S., Ukraine and Russia have crisscrossed the globe to discuss a potential peace deal, while Nazhat Shameem Khan spoke at the ICC's weeklong annual meeting in The Hague, where hundreds gathered.
- The ICC issued arrest warrants for Russian President Vladimir Putin and five others, but the Kremlin rejects the court's jurisdiction and calls the warrants null and void.
- Linking justice to peace, Nazhat Shameem Khan said attempts to bring justice should go hand-in-hand with peace efforts and described the moment as `a very challenging, but also a very decisive time for justice and for international criminal justice`.
- The court reported backing from its 125 member states, but U.S. sanctions by U.S. President Donald Trump, including on the Fijian jurist, have strained its resources.
