Mongolian officials “have the obligation” to arrest Vladimir Putin if he visits the country next week, the International Criminal Court (ICC) has said.

              I think they are still their own thing, but were made to do a pledge of allegiance to Russia.

                    Was he dumb, or did the Putin regime threaten him with nad consequences if he didn’t get in?
