The European Union has reminded Mongolia of the ICC arrest warrant for Vladimir Putin.
A statement on this topic was made by the press service of the EU diplomatic department.
The European Union is concerned about Putin's upcoming visit to Mongolia, RIA Novosti reports.
This is related to the ICC warrant and the republic’s obligations to the international judicial organization.
The statement notes that Mongolia has the right to build a foreign policy that fully meets its state interests.
At the same time, the EU recalled that Ulaanbaatar ratified the Rome Statute of the ICC in 2002.
From that moment on, the Republic assumed the corresponding legal obligations.
