The Mexican president on Thursday rejected a request from Ukraine’s government to arrest Vladimir Putin if the Russian leader defies an international arrest warrant and attends the inauguration of Mexico’s next president in October. “We can’t do that,” President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador told reporters at a regular government press conference. “It’s not up to us.” Ukraine asked Mexico to arrest Putin if he attends the Oct. 1 swearing-in ceremony of President-elect Claudia Sheinbaum. The request, in a statement from Ukraine’s Mexican embassy dated Aug. 7, pointed to an arrest warrant issued by the U.N.'s International Criminal Court (ICC).

    Pansies.

    What do you expect from a country that can’t even govern itself though?

    Should have requested the Cartels do something about it.

      Should have requested the Cartels do something about it.

      The United States could simply offer a 12 month amnesty to any Cartel who manages to make Putin appear, alive, at The Hague. The value of that would easily exceed a Billion dollars and be highly motivational.

      Too bad he hasn’t seemed to piss off China. I bet with all those precursor connections they would have enough influence to get them to destroy the meeting place.

      You must be American. Your ex president is a CONVICTED FELON and isn’t in prison. STFU.

        Ah yes, the old “your government/politician does bad thing therefore you cannot criticize other bad thing” argument. So eloquent, so convincing. So strong.

        I could live to be a thousand, and I’ll still be seeing small-minded people make the same argument.
