If the war crimes of Russian troops are recognized by the International Criminal Court, those involved may be detained in any country that recognizes the jurisdiction of this court.

He said that all those who had committed crimes against humanity and genocide were potentially under investigation because 42 countries had already submitted applications and supported such an investigation by the International Criminal Court. Those convicted would eventually be sentenced to, for example, long-term imprisonment.
“It is difficult for me to imagine a civilized European country that will not detain or hand over to the International Criminal Court a war criminal, such as a political or military leader from Russia. Such a verdict will mean that a diplomatic passport is unlikely to help the Russians. They will be imprisoned in any European or another country that recognizes the jurisdiction of the International Criminal Court and transferred to The Hague and receive imprisonment. In other words, this is such a serious risk that the Russians are very afraid of “.
