South Africa’s President Cyril Ramaphosa has said that arresting Vladimir Putin – if he chooses to attend a summit in Johannesburg next month, would be a declaration of war against Russia.
The Russian president has been invited to attend a meeting of Brics countries but is the target of an International Criminal Court (ICC) arrest warrant.
The opposition Democratic Alliance (DA) has gone to court to try to force the authorities in South Africa, an ICC member, to carry out the arrest.
