The Mexican president on Thursday rejected a request from Ukraine's government to arrest Vladimir Putin if the Russian leader defies an international arrest warrant and attends the inauguration of Mexico's next president in October.

"We can't do that," President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador told reporters at a regular government press conference.

"It's not up to us."

Ukraine asked Mexico to arrest Putin if he attends the Oct. 1 swearing-in ceremony of President-elect Claudia Sheinbaum. The request, in a statement from Ukraine's Mexican embassy dated Aug. 7, pointed to an arrest warrant issued by the U.N.'s International Criminal Court (ICC).

There’s no way Putin would travel to Mexico. The dangers to him would be many and immense. Also, dictators are the most vulnerable at home when they are on foreign travel.

What will be your reaction if Vlad does what senile Joe did for Ukraine…..supply them with weapons, intelligence, $$$ billions, station advisors, etc…? …then all that x 10?

Cuba, South American, Central America, etc…..fair play? Vegetable Head Joe’s Ukie war is turning into a debacle. He has shown much restraint.

What HIMARS doink?
———-
The bigger question is how are Vlad’s lower technology Monstrous FAB’s doing?

https://www.fdd.org/analysis/2024/07/19/what-we-know-about-russias-new-3-ton-glide-bomb/

“…. Thanks chiefly to the UMPK, Russia is currently launching around 3,500 glide bombs per month….”

Nothing, absolutely nothing on the field carries the destructive power of Vlad’s FAB’s…..it easily brings down any building, 1,000 meter kill zone, and he is not running out of them, in fact, increasing production.

Putin won’t be there... It will be one of his doubles. He can’t leave the country, they’d depose him.

Both AMLO and Putin support Maduro in his election fraud.
