We got some admissions and denials from the war in Ukraine. On its part Ukraine has had some if not, but strategic victories since it began its counter-offensive. In a rare admission according to the news aired in some foreign stations Putin has made a rare appearance and admission regarding the stockpile of his weapons, however this is unverified that was shown on TV. Whether or not this is true remains to be seen from his next moves.
The International Court of Justice recently has issued an arrest warrant for Mr. Putin for war crimes committed against Ukraine. He can be arrested if he fails to comply with the arrest warrant if he travels anywhere outside of Russia and that being the case he cannot attend the BRICS meeting in South Africa in August with the warrant in force.
Ukraine has been calling for the immediate evacuation of all Russian troops from its territory including Crimea. Earlier last month the Foreign Minister Mr. Lavrov visited South Africa paving a way for Mr. Putin’s trip for the BRICS in August. However, now since an arrest warrant was served after this any trip outside of Russia is banned or prohibited. This arrest warrant does not prevent any other dignitary or dignitaries to represent Mr. Putin in the BRICS meeting.
