According to reports from Russia, Putin may fly over Albanian territory to go to Hungary!
After it was announced that the summit between Vladimir Putin and Donald Trump will be held in Hungary, a big question has appeared on Russian Telegram channels: “How will Putin get to Budapest?” No one sees an airlift that defies sanctions, international mandates, and diplomatic networks as simple.
According to " La Republica ", the Russian president cannot pass over Ukrainian territory. The route through Belarus, Poland, Slovakia and Hungary is also out of the question due to political antagonisms and sanctions restrictions.
A Russian analyst, Kirill Benediktov, has mentioned a more reasonable corridor that could pass through Turkey, and then through the Balkans: passing through Albania or Montenegro, Kosovo, Serbia and finally Hungary.
But even this route is not without its risks. The Telegram channel “Condottiero,” run by a veteran of the Wagner Group, has suggested that such a journey would require “strict flight safety guarantees” and a “US Air Force escort over Europe.”
But the question that arises is, if Putin decides to follow the Balkan path, will the Albanian government allow it?
Putin is the subject of an arrest warrant from the International Criminal Court (ICC) for war crimes and crimes against humanity in Ukraine. Under ICC rules, any member state that hosts such an individual has a legal obligation to arrest him. But Hungary has said it will not do so, even though it is still formally a member of the ICC until its withdrawal, which is expected to take effect
The meeting in Budapest also has a strong symbolic dimension. Indeed, in the same city on December 5, 1994, the Budapest Memorandum was signed, where Ukraine agreed to disarm from nuclear weapons in exchange for guarantees for the integrity of its territory and the security of the state. But it was later “broken in its faith” by Russia. / Pamphlet
