No one would get through his phalanx of goons to arrest him. However, his destinations are already limited to places the ICC has no jurisdiction, so nothing has changed in that department.

There are two arrest warrants: Putin and Maria Lvova-Belova, his head of the children's commission, who is hoarding 23 Ukrainian children herself while pushing through illegal adoptions of other Ukrainian children illegally seized and deported to Russia.

They claim it;s humanitarian, so did the Argentine dictators who disappeared the children of people they didn't like. The ICC considers it cultural genocide and a war crime. There is nothing humanitarian about snatching children from their home country and trying to turn them into little Russians, especially when their parents are still alive and desperately trying to get them back.

The last head of state the ICC indicted was Qadaffi and we know what happened to him. He didn't get arrested, either, but identifying him as a criminal went a long way toward convincing others in Libya that he was vulnerable.
