I just find the circus that Uhuru keeps around him entertaining. Instead of having zero publicity about it, talking to his lawyers, sending a question to chamber on whether they want him in person or video and being told in person, then flying out early to the Netherlands, touring the country and then using public means to go to the court and be over with it, he is going to humiliate himself.
His people are already making threats which the judges will read. This will harden their positions as if they grant a video link or excuse him, the World would think they have been intimidated. So they will grab on to their power and use it. That means he will be summoned in person as long as the threats keep falling.
Then he will travel to The Hague like three American presidents. Limos, motorcade, outriders and extremely arrogant and pushy security. By the time he is leaving, he would have annoyed thousands of ordinary citizens and attracted a suit of two from those who will be assaulted by his "security".
Why all this?
