Armenian President Vahagn Khachaturyan approved parliament's decision to join the International Criminal Court (ICC) on Saturday.
Armenia joined the International Criminal Court on Saturday, adding to a growing list of countries where Russian President Vladimir Putin can't visit freely.Armenian officials made it clear that their decision to join the ICC was not meant to be a jab at Russia, an ally to the country, claiming that Azerbaijan's aggression towards Armenia was the catalyst for its decision, the Associated Press reported.
Armenia, along with the other countries that have signed and ratified the Rome Statute, are expected to arrest Putin upon entry after the Russian leader was charged with war crimes in Ukraine in March.The ICC alleges that Putin is responsible for the unlawful deportation of children from Ukraine to Russia during his invasion of the Eastern European country that began in February 2022.
