A NATO country has issued Vladimir Putin a warning that they “cannot guarantee” him safe passage and his aircraft will be bought “down.”
The Russian dictator is expected to meet with the US President in Hungary in the coming weeks to discuss a possible peace deal, which was instigated by Putin when it looked likely Ukraine could receive Tomahawks to attack Russian military sites deep inside the country.
In September 2023 the International Criminal Court (ICC) issued an arrest warrant for Putin, they then opened a field office in Kyiv in response to the war crimes committed by the Kremlin’s forces.
Should Putin set foot in any of the 123 member states they must have Putin arrested and taken to the Hague to stand trial, Hungary is no longer a member of the ICC.

Bulgarian foreign minister Georg Georgiev has offered Putin safe passage to travel through their airspace without being arrested, Reuters reported.
Poland has issued a warning to the Russian despot saying if he flies over their airspace his plane will be “forcibly landed” and will be taken to the Hague.
Poland’s Foreign Minister Radoslaw Sikorski told Radio Rodzina, “I cannot guarantee that an independent Polish court won’t order the government to escort such an aircraft down to hand the suspect to the court in The Hague.
“And, therefore, if this summit is to take place, hopefully with the participation of the victim of the aggression, the aircraft will use a different route.”
As previously reported the US President is pressuring the Ukrainian President to give up territory to Putin to end the war.
Trump told Fox Business that Putin “is going to take something” during any peace agreement, he added “he’s won certain property.”
It has been further reported that the meeting between Zelensky and Trump turned into a “shouting match” and the US President has said he will not send Kyiv the long-range high precision Tomahawk missiles, Reuters reports.

Trump has called for a ceasefire on the front, and a source told Reuters that President Zelensky said he will not give up any territory for Russia.
A source said, “The meeting ended with (Trump’s) decision to make a ‘deal where we are, on the demarcation line.”
Trump said on Air Force One, “We think that what they should do is just stop at the lines where they are, the battle lines.
The rest is very tough to negotiate if you’re going to say, ‘you take this, we take that’.”
The Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk said, “None of us should exert pressure on Zelenskyy on the issue of territorial concessions.
“Everybody should pressure Russia to cease aggression. Concessions have never been the path to just and lasting peace.”
