Presidente Putine acusado de crimes de guerra

By Jordi Bou

March 20, 2023 - O principal órgão de investigação da Rússia disse ter aberto um inquérito crimes contra o procurador e juízes do Tribunal Criminal Internacional que emitiram um mandato de captura contra o President Vladimir Putine por crimes de guerra.


The move is a symbolic gesture of defiance, three days after the ICC accused Putin and his children's commissioner Maria Lvova-Belova of the war crime of deporting children from Ukraine to Russia.

A report published in February by the Humanitarian Research Lab at Yale School of Public Health as part of the Conflict Observatory said Russia has held at least 6,000 Ukrainian children in sites in Russian-held Crimea and Russia whose primary purpose appears to be political re-education.

It is highly unlikely that much will come of the arrest warrant for Putin and Lvova-Belova – the ICC has no powers to arrest suspects, and can only exercise jurisdiction within its member countries – and Russia is not one of them.

However it could affect the president in other ways, such as being unable to travel internationally.
