More quotes by Vladimir Putin
We must stop using the language of force and return to the path of civilized diplomatic and political settlement.
Vladimir Putin
Our anti-crisis policy is aimed at supporting domestic demand, providing social guarantees for the population, and creating new jobs. Like many countries, we have reduced production taxes, leaving money in the economy. We have optimised state spending.
Vladimir Putin
Notably, it was only possible [ negotiating on the Tarabarov Island], and this is very important, due to the high level of trust Russia and China reached in their relations by that time. If we reach the same level of trust with Japan, we might be able to reach certain compromises.
Vladimir Putin
Europe and the United States are not the whole world.
Vladimir Putin
I think every person should have some faith inside him, in his heart. What matters is not an external display of this faith, but the inner state of the soul.
Vladimir Putin
Even with the help of anti-Russian propaganda in the mass media, Germany has not succeeded in damaging this sympathy.
Vladimir Putin
There are many issues in the global economy in general and in the western economy as well: population ageing, drop in labour productivity growth rates. This is obvious. The overall demographic situation is very complicated.
Vladimir Putin
I only had a telephone conversation with [Donald Trump], whereas [Shinzō ] Abe met with him in person.
Vladimir Putin
One must not allow oneself to skid down to isolationism and unbridled economic egoism. ... The second possible mistake would be excessive interference into the economic life of the country. And the absolute faith into the all-mightiness of the state.
Vladimir Putin
At some point a few years ago Japan unilaterally stopped those talks and broke off contacts with us. It was not we who broke off contacts with Japan, it was the Japanese side that broke off contacts with us.
Vladimir Putin
The goal we have set for ourselves, which is to diversify our cooperation with China, is making progress.
Vladimir Putin
Even during the years of the Cold War, the intense confrontation between the Soviet Union and the United States, we always avoided any direct clash between our civilians and, most certainly, between our military.
Vladimir Putin
This is also evident in Europe, not the dependence on oil and gas, but the fact that structural reforms are long overdue, and I think that the leading economies are very pragmatic and efficient in addressing the issues facing the European economy. That is why we keep approximately 40 percent of our gold and foreign currency reserves in euros.
Vladimir Putin
The most obvious risk was that the Russian speaking population was threatened and that the threats were absolutely specific and tangible. This is what made Crimean residents, the people who live there, think about their future and ask Russia for help. This is what guided our decision.
Vladimir Putin
Given the cost of borrowings and the $100 billion in Government reserves, there is no reason for us to borrow. We should review the situation carefully. Besides, borrowings are possible, but we must understand what is more profitable at this point.
Vladimir Putin
Only a developed society, for example, only a strong democratic system in modern conditions can create a climate in which any manifestation of terrorism is unacceptable and can also make the state itself stronger.
Vladimir Putin
Here we have 40 million Russian citizens involved in the sphere of agriculture one way or another. This is very important.
Vladimir Putin
Protest actions and propaganda are two slightly different things.
Vladimir Putin
The strengthening of our statehood is, at times, deliberately interpreted as authoritarianism.
Vladimir Putin
As far as I understand, the president-elect of the United States [Donald Trump] is ready for such joint work. We do not know yet what it will be like in actual practice. We have to wait for him to take office and form his administration.
