Interesting spin. South African courts would put out an arrest warrant. He wouldn’t be arrested. South Africa would then be sanctioned by NATO members. The South African ruling party thus asked the Kremlin to spare them this fate.
There is a precedent to this situation (al Bashir).

As someone from the Westin Cape of South Africa I know the DA party would be insane enough to use the metropolitan police that they more or less control to symbolicaly arrest him for the publicity if they where given the chance.
DA is the majority party of the Western Cape where Putin would be visiting.

Bad OPSEC. Who warned him?

Lock up that war criminal.

South Africa cannot withdraw from international court? USA are not part of it, so Russia and China..
-
They certainly could, but I guess they'd rather be in the international court rather than have Putin visit their country.

This is good practice for Ukraine. I’m glad he has courageously taken the first step towards being a reformed war criminal. /s
