If it's arrest is what you want, I have one for you too

Russia on Friday sentenced top International Criminal Court (ICC) judges and its chief prosecutor to jail terms in their absence, in a retaliatory move after the court issued an arrest warrant for President Vladimir Putin over the Ukraine war.

In 2023, prosecutor Karim Khan charged Putin with illegally deporting children from Russian-occupied territories of Ukraine. Moscow responded by opening a case against him.

Khan, 55, is now suspended from duties over an internal probe following sexual misconduct allegations, which he denies.

The Moscow city court found that "ICC Prosecutor Karim Khan unlawfully prosecuted Russian citizens in The Hague" and that the ICC "instructed the judges of the chamber to issue patently unlawful arrest warrants".

Khan was sentenced to 15 years in jail in absentia, while eight ICC staff, including the former court president Piotr Hofmanski, received prison terms ranging from 3.5 to 15 years.

Since sending troops to Ukraine, Russia has issued numerous sentences in absentia to dissidents, journalists, opposition, and foreign politicians.

Compare that to Zelenskyy’s death list.
