What are the odds they'll do that? Or that Putin just won't show up then? Could he do that?
I lolled when I read that request. The odds are lol
Zero. We're staunchly and traditionally neutral on foreign conflicts, for better or for worse. :/
I disagree - Mexico is a Rome statute signatory, meaning that (theoretically) they're legally obligated to arrest Putin on arrival as the ICC has issued a warrant for him
Afaik their diplomatic neutrality wouldn't override their legal obligations
I don't think this matters since we're only extending the invitation to be polite knowing he won't show up anyway.
Regardless, it's extremely unlikely'
I doubt he'll go out of his bunker anyway
It's Mexico. $500 would override their legal obligations.
(Please don't crucify me, I spent a lot of time there and absolutely love Mexico, it's culture and it's people ❤️... But damn if I didn't spend a lot of money on bribes)
What always gets me is how do you know how much to bribe people for? Did you have to ask around? Do they actually tell you?
I just picture me slipping a border guard a fiver and being so insulted he arrests me lol
Then offer more. A quick end to the war to save $100 billion or so is worth a lot of money. Offer enough and maybe even the cartels decides they'd like to help uphold the law
