What is the legal status of Vladimir Putin according to international law?
According to the International Criminal Court (ICC), Vladimir Putin is officially classified as a war criminal. As Jill Dougherty confirms, there is currently a warrant for Putin's arrest. Senator Roger Wicker's statement that Putin should be imprisoned or face execution is technically correct under international legal frameworks, despite neither Russia nor the United States being members of the ICC. This legal designation stands in stark contrast to Trump's controversial comments suggesting Ukraine initiated the conflict, which Dougherty, who was in Moscow when the invasion began, firmly rejects.
