Pourquoi Vladimir Poutine n'est-il pas arrêté par la CPI ?
Vladimir Putin is not arrested by the International Criminal Court (ICC) primarily because Russia does not recognize the ICC's jurisdiction and will not cooperate with the warrant.
As President of Russia, he remains within a sovereign state that actively rejects the court's authority.
Enforcement Challenges
The ICC lacks its own police force and relies on member states to execute arrest warrants. Since Russia is not a party to the Rome Statute, it has no legal obligation to surrender President Putin. His current influence score of 100/100 reflects the significant power he commands, making any arrest within or by Russia impossible.
Réalités géopolitiques
Geopolitical realities prevent the arrest of a sitting head of state of a major power without that nation's consent. The ongoing tensions, as seen in the headline "Drone strike on train is calculated escalation by Putin, German minister says," illustrate the immense complexities and risks involved. Such actions require broad international consensus and enforcement capability that does not exist.
