South Africa says that Russian President Vladimir Putin will not be attending next month's BRICS summit in Johannesburg. The annual meeting brings together the leaders of Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa.

Putin's attendance had raised difficult diplomatic questions for the host country, with the Russian president facing an arrest warrant by the International Criminal Court. As a member of the ICC, South Africa would be obligated to arrest him if he showed up at the meeting. The Kremlin says Putin will instead join the summit via video.
