Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky on Friday urged Western allies to “speed up” arms deliveries, including tanks, to repel the Russian invasion, at the opening of a meeting of the country’s supporters.

Yes, we will still have to fight for the supply of modern tanks, but every day we make it more obvious that there is no alternative to making a decision on tanks,” Zelensky said in his evening speech via video.

“Our partners have a principled attitude – they will support Ukraine as much as necessary for our victory,” he continued.

Meeting at the U.S. military base in Ramstein, Germany, Ukraine’s Western allies were unable to agree on the delivery of heavy tanks, notably due to the lack of a green light from Germany.

Kiev’s expectations were high before this meeting of some fifty countries to coordinate military aid from allies against Moscow, Ukraine hoping to obtain the necessary weapons to launch a new offensive against Russian troops on its soil.

Zelensky, who on Thursday called on the West to “considerably” increase their deliveries, nevertheless welcomed a meeting in Ramstein on Friday that “will strengthen our resilience.

He cited “several hundred combat vehicles added to the arsenal” of Ukraine, “significant results concerning rockets and anti-aircraft systems ».

War in Ukraine: the International Criminal Court will not let go of Vladimir Putin, the international arrest warrant remains valid for life

The arrest warrant issued by the International Criminal Court in The Hague (ICC) for Russian President Vladimir Putin will remain valid even if Russia’s war against Ukraine ends.

“There is no statute of limitations on war crimes,” ICC Chief Prosecutor Karim Khan told BBC Radio on Monday.

The latter highlights Vladimir Putin’s alleged responsibility for the war crimes committed in Ukraine since Russia invaded the country. The arrest warrants against the head of state and his commissioner for children’s rights, Maria Lvova-Belova, will therefore remain hanging over their heads for the rest of their lives, he said. “Unless they appear before the independent judges of the court and the judges decide to drop the charges. »

The arrest warrants are essentially symbolic. A trial seems to be out of the question for the time being.

The British lawyer and chief prosecutor in the trial of former Serbian leader Slobodan Milosevic in The Hague told Sky News reporters that because of the arrest warrant for him, Vladimir Putin has become a wanted criminal. “This label will stick to him for the rest of his life, unless he is tried and acquitted or, which is almost unthinkable, the ICC withdraws the arrest warrant,” he explained. “The arrest warrant is a very, very important and encouraging step,” he said.
