Vladimir Putin has made a surprise visit to the Russian-occupied port city of Mariupol, Ukraine, in an act of defiance two days after the International Criminal Court issued an arrest warrant for him. During his visit, Putin was seen chatting with local residents, visiting an art school, and a children’s center in Crimea. This visit is seen as a show of support for the Russian-occupied territory and is likely to be met with criticism from the international community.
