But last year, he was welcomed by honors in Mongolia, although he is a Member State of the ICC.

“This is due to certain difficulties, in the context of the requirement of the ICC. In this context, the Brazilian government could not take a clear position that would allow our president to attend this meeting, “Usakov said.
