MANILA (Philippine Daily Inquirer/Asia News Network): The arrest order issued by the International Criminal Court (ICC) against Russian President Vladimir Putin should prompt the Philippines to rejoin the international body, detained former Sen. Leila de Lima (pic) said on Sunday (March 19).
“This development ought to press (the) Philippine government to consider resumption of ICC membership. That will be a most profound step in joining once again the overall struggle for international criminal justice,” she said in a statement.
