Zelenskyy's office says Putin's arrest warrant makes any negotiations with Russia impossible

This was stated by Mykhailo Podolyak, Advisor to the Head of the Office of the President of Ukraine.

"The legal fixation of the "RF’s current president" as an obvious international criminal directly means:

1. No negotiations with the current ru-elite

2. No return of RF to world politics in its pre-war status

3. No lifting of sanctions as long as the "face of Putin" represents RF," he wrote.

• On March 17, the International Court of Justice in the Hague issued an arrest warrant for Putin. He is suspected of forcibly deporting Ukrainian children.

• China said that the International Criminal Court, which issued the arrest warrant for Putin, should take an "objective position."
