    That’s not how it works. If a warrant is issued then any country that is a signatory is obligated to arrest him if he sets foot in their territory.

        The ICC issuing an arrest warrant would also erode the legitimacy of the administration internationally. A head of state that can’t visit other heads of states tends to become a lame duck, especially when they’re not an autocrat.
