Everything that we [with Shindzo Abe] are talking about has come to us as a result of the events of 70 years ago. In some way or other, during these 70 years we have been involved in some kind of dialogue on the issue, and that includes the conclusion of a peace treaty.

Above all, we should acknowledge that the collapse of the Soviet Union was a major geopolitical disaster of the century. As for the Russian nation, it became a genuine drama. Tens of millions of our co-citizens and co-patriots found themselves outside Russian territory.
Vladimir Putin

It is a major world power, and today it is an economic and military leader - no doubt about it. That is why America has a strong influence on the situation in the world in general.
Vladimir Putin
Image
The fight against terrorism is something very real and practical for us. This is a fight to preserve our territorial integrity, and in this sense we need to have the instruments and create an environment in Russia that would make it impossible for the international terrorist organisations to achieve the aims they have set for themselves here.
Vladimir Putin
Image
We are actively preparing a partial privatization of Rosneft itself. It is the best proof that our major plans have remained unchanged. Another example would be one of the largest Russian diamond mining companies in the world. We are privatizing part of our stake in that as well.
Vladimir Putin

The mutual sympathy of our peoples is and will remain the foundation of our relations [with Germany].
Vladimir Putin
Image
Absolute trust is something hard to achieve even in a family, and it is much harder to achieve on an international level.
Vladimir Putin
Image
Even if we do not always agree on every aspect, nobody should take this as an excuse to declare us as enemies.
Vladimir Putin

In my opinion, provision of military support to illegal structures runs counter to the principles of modern international law and the United Nations Charter.
Vladimir Putin
Image
We believe in the fundamental principles of the European economy.
Vladimir Putin

The level of our political trust [with China] is also very high. We have similar positions on major international issues or even, as diplomats say, our views are identical. We often have shared positions on key issues of the modern international agenda.
