Putin's failure to Brix's summit points to the limited travel and isolation of Russia - CNN

The Kremlin head cannot move freely in the world. The doors are open to him only in Belarus, Central Asia, Africa, Iran, India and several other countries. Russian President Vladimir Putin will not come to Brix's meeting in Johannesburg - a key global forum that will take place this week in Johannesburg. His failure to speak eloquently about Russia's isolation - and about narrowing of Putin's horizons. About it writes in his analysis CNN.

"Once the Russian President Vladimir Putin was a person to pay attention to: a few weeks before the full-scale invasion of Russia in Ukraine world leaders in turn were operating to Moscow to call the Kremlin leader to move away from the edge of the abyss and to cancel any plans for attack. These Efforts have failed. But the person who initiated the catastrophic war now believes that his ability to travel is extremely limited, "the newspaper writes.

The analysis states that Putin cannot move freely in the world. The doors are open to him only in Belarus, Central Asia, Africa, Iran, India and several other countries. In March, the International Criminal Court issued a warrant for the arrest of Putin for the scheme of deportation of Ukrainian children to Russia. The ISS warrant has put South Africa in hopelessness: as a participant in the Hague Court's treaty, South Africa is obliged to arrest persons accused of the ISS.

The Kremlin, of course, denies any hints that Putin evades the Brix summit through the ISS warrant. On July 29, Putin told reporters that he did not consider his presence in Brix "more important than his presence in Russia now. " Recall that on August 19, US President Joe Biden called the argument of Russian President Vladimir Putin about the causes of war against Ukraine "ridiculous". He also stated that Russia had already lost.
