More quotes by Vladimir Putin
Of course, it's always bad to lose, of course it's always a hardship when you lose to yesterday's miners or yesterday's tractor drivers. But life is life. It'll surely go on.
Vladimir Putin
Nobody should pin their hopes on a miracle.
Vladimir Putin
The sanctions may be imposed only by the decision of the UN Security Council. A unilateral imposition of sanctions is a violation of international law.
Vladimir Putin
Now they [NATO and the USA ] are sitting there, and we are talking about all these crises we would otherwise not have. You can also see this striving for an absolute triumph in the American missile defense plans.
Vladimir Putin
Democracy is not possible without effectively working legal system.
Vladimir Putin
Let's recall Bosnia in 1995. As we know well, the European peacekeeping contingent, represented by the Dutch troops, did not want to get involved with one of the attacking sides, and allowed it to destroy a whole village. Hundreds of people were killed or injured. The tragedy in Srebrenica is well known in Europe.
Vladimir Putin
If you want to lower the significance of Russia in the world, you actually just want to elevate your own country. That is a mistake.
Vladimir Putin
If Russia's interests and security are threatened, Russia will resist. Everyone needs to know that.
Vladimir Putin
Economic crimes are complex in nature, difficult to untangle, and they must be investigated according to the procedures set by the law.
Vladimir Putin
Sanctions have nothing to do with this [relations with the People's Republic of China]. The decline in our mutual trade has objective causes, which are the energy prices and the exchange rate difference. But the physical volumes have not decreased, quite the opposite actually. They are growing.
Vladimir Putin
Where in the world have you seen construction people who do everything on time, with good quality and at minimal prices? Just give me one country like that. A country like that doesn't exist in the world, you know. There's not one such country anywhere in the world.
Vladimir Putin
The constitutional reform is supposed to give autonomy to eastern Ukraine and to be adopted by the end of 2015. This has not happened, and the year is over. That's not Russia's fault.
Vladimir Putin
My job is not only to give medals, you know, which certainly is part of my function. First and foremost, though, my job is about ensuring success of the work in various spheres. It is a kind of day-to-day spadework.
Vladimir Putin
A lot can be done, but not everyone immediately succeeds in everything.
Vladimir Putin
Whatever we do, all the knowledge, the experience, they stay with us, we carry them on, use them in one way or another.
Vladimir Putin
The UN, of course, must also adapt to modern demands and take into account the reality of the modern world in its work.
Vladimir Putin
I'm sure corruption in Chechnya is minimal.
Vladimir Putin
Yes, life in Chechnya so far looks more like a life after a natural disaster.
Vladimir Putin
I always had a problem when someone was trying to place sport in social and political context. Sport is a separate and unique kind of human activity, which functions under its own rules and principles. It has nothing to do with the political agenda, and neither it should. When politics interferes with sport, unjust things happen.
Vladimir Putin
We should cooperate much more closely in fighting terrorism, which is a great challenge.
