Ukraine's embassy in Mexico has asked the government to arrest Russian President Vladimir Putin if he attends the October 1 inauguration of President-elect Claudia Sheinbaum.
I disagree - Mexico is a Rome statute signatory, meaning that (theoretically) they’re legally obligated to arrest Putin on arrival as the ICC has issued a warrant for him
Afaik their diplomatic neutrality wouldn’t override their legal obligations
It’s Mexico. $500 would override their legal obligations.
(Please don’t crucify me, I spent a lot of time there and absolutely love Mexico, it’s culture and it’s people ❤️… But damn if I didn’t spend a lot of money on bribes)
Then offer more. A quick end to the war to save $100 billion or so is worth a lot of money. Offer enough and maybe even the cartels decides they’d like to help uphold the law

I don’t think this matters since we’re only extending the invitation to be polite knowing he won’t show up anyway.
Regardless, it’s extremely unlikely’
I doubt he’ll go out of his bunker anyway
