This is almost certainly not happening, but it would be absolutely hilarious if that’s how the Putin regime ended.

Only 1?? With how much we spend on the war you think it would be higher than that.

Make it a trillion because that’s at least how much money would be saved if that sack of dog farts were put up against a wall.

Putin is not going to turn up in Mexico. Mexico might not care much about the war in Ukraine, but the US does and would be rather easy to do it for Mexico.

The United States arresting the President of Russia while they are in Mexico would be the definition of “Political Crisis” and it would likely result in Russia declaring war on the United States and potentially the Netherlands, and thus NATO, as well.

The US would not arrest Putin, Mexico would. The US just happens like have an interest in arresting Putin and a lot of leverage over Mexico. That is besides it being international law, so most countries would actually like that.

Also nobody Russia would not start a war over the arrest of Putin. Anybody in the Russian leadership, who has the power to declare a war against the US, Netherlands, Mexico and/or NATO also has the power to replace Putin. So why would they try to bring Putin back, so Putin can take their power?

Russian General: God damn USA just ruined my 2 years of planning to slip some polonium into Putin’s tea so I could take over!

That’s you and your comment was clearly talking about the United States arresting Putin in Mexico. That’s why I responded the way that I did.

Also nobody Russia would not start a war over the arrest of Putin.

That’s easy to say here on the Internet but the extra-national arrest of a countries current Head of State is no small thing and it’s plenty likely that Russia (or any other country) would strongly object.

So why would they try to bring Putin back, so Putin can take their power?

All 120 or so people at the top of the Russian Hierarchy are loyal to Putin personally, that’s why.

What happens when one of the 120 odd power brokers calls up the Hague and says “You release Putin and we stop war tomorrow and pay Ukraine 500 Billion in reparations. You don’t release Putin and we come for him anyway.”

That’s some wicked calculus for the ICC to deal with.

No-one is getting arrested. But we would like to offer mr Putin a nice hot cup of tea. Near this window on the 20th floor.

CIA have done far worse “political crises” all over the world. Why would Mexico of all countries object to unsanctioned US military ops ???

No one needs to know when Putler disappears.

He wouldn’t be disappearing though. He’d turn up in The Hague in front of the ICC.
