Some shocking nonsense from France here. No one gets immunity from an ICC arrest warrant because they're in office - not Netanyahu, not Putin, no one.
See Article 27 of the Rome Statute: www.icc-cpi.int/sites/defaul...
My book is out! I’m grateful for the many people in Jordan, Tunisia, Stanford, and elsewhere who helped it reach this point.
If you’re interested in why some autocrats stay popular or why ruling monarchs are so durable in today’s world, this book is for you!

Turkmenistan. Freedom of movement of citizens latest frontier in regime's ever expanding repressive strategy. Due to travel abroad to see her work recognised, journalist Soltan Achilova is forcibly hospitalised so that she can't leave the country.
Simply horrendous.
