South Africa plans law change over Putin ICC arrest warrant by atoluwash(m) : 5:01 am On May 31, 2023 |
South Africa intends to change its law so that it has the power to decide whether or not to arrest a leader wanted by the International Criminal Court (ICC), a deputy minister has told the BBC. Obed Bapela's comments come in the midst of extreme speculation about whether South Africa stands by its invitation to Russia's President Putin to visit in August. The ICC has issued an arrest warrant for Mr. Putin over the Ukraine war. South Africa had earlier invited him to attend a summit of Brics leaders. Russia has not said whether Mr. Putin plans to attend the summit. Meanwhile, Pretoria has also granted diplomatic immunity to Russian officials attending, something that its foreign affairs department described as standard procedure. Brics is intended to strengthen ties between the nations that make it up - Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa. |
