More quotes by Vladimir Putin
People in the eastern regions [of Ukaraine] are talking about federalisation, and Kiev has at long last started talking about de-centralisation. Order in the country can only be restored through dialogue and democratic procedures, rather than with the use of armed force, tanks and aircraft.
Vladimir Putin
If regional associations are created, they should work on the basis of WTO norms, on the WTO basis.
Vladimir Putin
One thing is clear, everyone, no matter what their professional or material status, no matter what their influence on various state structures, must obey the law.
Vladimir Putin
The basic principles of democracy should be observed whatever the country - principles such as civil liberties, a free market, a free press, the priority of the individual over mythical state interests, a state which serves the interests of ordinary people and defends their rights and interests. This is all easy to say but hard to make reality.
Vladimir Putin
For Russia, there is not and there may not be another political option but democracy. However, Russian democracy is... not at all the realization of standards imposed on us from outside.
Vladimir Putin
Even if we do not always agree on every aspect, nobody should take this as an excuse to declare us as enemies.
Vladimir Putin
Frankly speaking, we all know that provoking military and political instability, regional, and other conflicts is a helpful means of distracting the public from growing domestic social and economic problems in certain countries. Such attempts cannot be ruled out, unfortunately.
Vladimir Putin
Easter celebrations are evidence of the increased benign influence of the Russian Orthodox Church and other traditional churches in our country on society.
Vladimir Putin
This is not only a matter of relations between Russia and the United States. In my view, any restrictions in the economic sphere that are dictated by considerations of political expediency are extremely harmful for the world economy as a whole. This destroys unity and the rules of the game.
Vladimir Putin
The transfer of power is always a test of the constitutional system, a test of its strength.
Vladimir Putin
We were in negotiations, but then the Japanese side suspended them unilaterally. Now, at the request of our Japanese partners, we have reopened these talks.
Vladimir Putin
Russia, as well as any other country, does not need dictators, but it needs equitable principles of organizing the state and society: just, effective, flexibly responding to changes inside and outside the country - that is what Russia needs.
Vladimir Putin
We would like to draw the attention of our partners, of potential investors to the Russian Far East.
Vladimir Putin
This is the large range of issues we have to discuss [with Shinzō Abe] and make a decision on each one of them. Look, after the resumption of the negotiating process in 2000, we did not refuse to consistently work toward signing this peace treaty.
Vladimir Putin
Of course, we will work towards that end. Of course, we will work to achieve this result. However, you have just mentioned the 1956 agreement, and one may recall that these negotiations were later terminated, in effect, on Japan's initiative.
Vladimir Putin
I have heard this a thousand times. Of course every state has the right to organize its security the way it deems appropriate. But the states that were already in NATO, the member states, could also have followed their own interests - and abstained from an expansion to the east.
Vladimir Putin
I'd rather not deal with such questions, because anyway it's like shearing a pig - lots of screams but little wool.
Vladimir Putin
The goal we have set for ourselves, which is to diversify our cooperation with China, is making progress.
Vladimir Putin
Of course Germany's media are heavily influenced by the country on the other side of the Atlantic Ocean.
Vladimir Putin
I hope that the responsible figures in the Ukrainian leadership will not hinder soldiers in the Ukrainian army from putting down their weapons, if they aren't capable of taking that decision themselves and giving that order, then I hope that they won't prosecute people who want to save their lives and the lives of others.
Vladimir Putin
