More quotes by Vladimir Putin
How can I be a gangster, if I worked for the KGB? It is absolutely ridiculous.
Vladimir Putin
Russia is the biggest country in the world. It would be very difficult to surround it, and the world is changing so fast that it would basically be impossible, even in theory.
Vladimir Putin
Our intention is to develop music, theatre and exhibition activities on the Far Eastern regions.
Vladimir Putin
We are not going to waste our reserves and burn them for any political ambitions. We will act very carefully.
Vladimir Putin
I would like to say, you know, that, unfortunately, we have many unresolved problems. But a great number of people in Russia know Japan and love Japan, and I am sure that eventually we will resolve all our problems.
Vladimir Putin
I think that a person cannot be criminally or otherwise prosecuted, his or her rights cannot be infringed upon the grounds of nationality, ethnicity or sexual orientation in the modern world. It is absolutely unacceptable. And it is not the case in Russia.
Vladimir Putin
My English is very bad.
Vladimir Putin
As for the criticism we receive, you know, even Mr. [Donald] Trump's team criticize us. For instance, one of the participants or members of his team claimed that Russia was giving money to the Clintons through some funds and that in fact Russia is controlling the Clinton family. This is nonsense.
Vladimir Putin
However, given the fact that the State has a controlling stake in the company [Rosneft], it might not be the best course of action when one company under State control buys another one fully owned by the State. This is one point.
Vladimir Putin
I have always tried to sense the mood of the people, their needs, their attitude toward ways to solve problems, their priorities. That's mainly what I go by. And I think that's the most important thing in any person's work, in the work that the people of Russia entrusted in me.
Vladimir Putin
Irrespective of when this may happen, it would not be an exaggeration to say that today millions of people living in Russia and, I am sure, millions of people living in Japan have an urge to get to know each other, cooperate and exchange useful information, as well as a sincere desire that all problems that still remain unresolved be resolved.
Vladimir Putin
We will work with any Administration and with any President in whom the American people have placed their trust. That is, of course, if they wish to cooperate with Russia.
Vladimir Putin
We will not allow the past to drag us down and stop us from moving ahead. We understand where we should move.
Vladimir Putin
It is no accident that I mention our American friends, as they are always influencing our relations with our neighbors either directly or behind the scenes. Sometimes you don't even know who to talk to - the governments of certain countries or directly to their American patrons.
Vladimir Putin
The mutual sympathy of our peoples is and will remain the foundation of our relations [with Germany].
Vladimir Putin
I do not want to answer provocative question.
Vladimir Putin
It is true that the role of the state in the Russian economy may be too big today, but from the fiscal standpoint, it is not always practical to do this in a falling market.
Vladimir Putin
I see the collapse of the Soviet Union as a great tragedy of the XX century.
Vladimir Putin
It is not what your supporters, friends or your political adversaries call you that matters. What is important is what you think you must do in the interests of the country, which put you in such position, such post as the Head of the Russian State.
Vladimir Putin
I do not think I have the right to determine the political future of Syria, be it with or without al-Assad. This is for the Syrians themselves to decide. Nobody has the right to claim the rights that belong to the people of another country.
