It is very difficult to tie a political leader to a broken international law. Putin's legal detention is not possible. He would have to be expelled by his people, there is practically no other way, according to Dr. Joanna Siekiera, an expert in international law.
In her opinion, the International Criminal Court in Hague decided to proceed with opening an investigation on the situation in Ukraine, but the way to punish specific individuals is very long.
"I am skeptical, I know, but pragmatism speaks through me. So does it by world leaders. Today there is a war, the world is agitated, but what will happen next? There is pressure to get along with Russia, "Joanna Siekiera assessed.
She added that she did not believe in morality in international relations, but in the interests of states.
"I expect that in a few months the sanctions will begin to crack. Therefore, I believe that the legal detention of Vladimir Putin is not possible," the expert assessed.
