Don't really interesting legal point, is how can any individual subject of an international criminal arrest restaurant, so as the head of state of a major nation.

Russia has been stripped of its permanent seat on the security council, but is still a member of the security council.  There is no reason at the UN they cannot decide to decide to impose the arrest warrant.

If it cordoned off the Kremlin, the Kremlin were then be subject to international law.  It will be temporarily remove from Russian control.

At this stage UN police officers could freee the enter and the rest the worst Russian leader in recorded history.

Xi Jinping has gone off to see Putin, as churn out do not sign up to the International Criminal Courts.  Neither do the U.S. - as it wouldbe inconstitutional.

But if we look at the history and the ICC, war criminals have Monterrey had a them cells over to the Hague.  Or just died!

The magnitude of the defe losses caused by the unwarranted Ukraine they are or may not warrant UN intervention.  That is a matter for a high level lawyers.

I think in all likelihood Putin will die in office as the Russian president.  So in the last 20 years of his administration, basically under house arrest in the Kremlin.
