Putin Leaves Mongolia for Russia After Controversial Trip

Russian President Vladimir Putin departed Mongolia on Tuesday and arrived in Vladivostok, in eastern Russia. The trip to Mongolia was controversial as it was the first time the Russian leader had visited a member country of the International Criminal Court (ICC) since it issued an arrest warrant for him 18 months ago.

Russia and Mongolia agreed to strengthen economic ties at the end of a controversial visit by President Vladimir Putin in defiance of an arrest warrant issued by the International Criminal Court for alleged war crimes in Ukraine. #ukraine #russia #zelensky #putin #worldnews #politics #news #mongolia #asia

Putin held talks with Mongolian President Khurelsukh Ukhnaa in Ulaanbaatar on Tuesday, where the two sides oversaw the signing of cooperation agreements covering energy, trade and transport as well as projects to expand an economic corridor between Russia, Mongolia and China.

“Mongolia stands for the development and expansion of cooperation with its eternal neighbor, the Russian Federation,” Khurelsukh said during statements to the media after the talks. Putin’s visit “is of great importance for enriching friendly relations,” he said.
