Mongolia is actually with the notaries of the Rome Statute, the treaty overseeing the ICC, making it technically tied to observe the court's requirements.According to the Kremlin, Putin will definitely go to Mongolia at the invitation of its head of state to commemorate the 1939 Soviet-Mongolian success over Japan in the Fight of Khalkhin Gol." The presidents will certainly review prospects for additional development of the Russian-Mongolian complete strategic relationship," the Kremlin claimed in a statement.Mongolia, a long time ally of Russia, has actually maintained a neutral stance on the 2022 attack of Ukraine, making it not likely that Ulaanbaatar would confine Putin.An identical condition took place in 2015 when South Africa, which is also a Rome Law signature, sought an exception to enable the Russian leader to attend a BRICS peak.
