More quotes by Vladimir Putin
There is nothing in common between al-Assad and ISIS, they fight against each other.
Vladimir Putin
The Prime Minister [Shinzō Abe] also highlighted the need to address general humanitarian issues. We already mentioned one of these issues: visa-free travel by Japanese citizens to the South Kuril Islands.
Vladimir Putin
I go to the gym, I swim daily and from time to time I meet with friends and do extra-curricular stuff.
Vladimir Putin
However, it was not us who refused to freeze oil production our Saudi partners changed their point of view at the last moment and decided to slow down the adoption of this decision. I would like to reiterate our position, it remains the same.
Vladimir Putin
Take, for example, Lithuania. Do you know, what was its population in the Soviet times? It was 3.4 mln people. It was a small country, a small republic. And what is it now? I have looked though the recent statistics, today the population of this country is 1.4 mln people. Where are the people? More than half of the citizens have left the country.
Vladimir Putin
It is clear that the international community has no other universal organisation of the likes of the United Nations.
Vladimir Putin
I believe that the 21st century economy is an economy of people, not of factories. The intellectual factor has become increasingly important in the economy, which is why we are planning to focus on providing additional opportunities for people to realise their potential.
Vladimir Putin
We are ready to build large underground gas storages in Turkey, to participate in the privatization of Turkey's gas-distribution networks, to use the existing and participate in the construction of new pipelines in order to supply our energy resources through Turkey to third countries, including in southern Europe
Vladimir Putin
Nobody and nothing will stop Russia on the road to strengthening democracy and ensuring human rights and freedoms.
Vladimir Putin
There is no one else at all who is fighting ISIS on the ground, except for President al-Assad's army.
Vladimir Putin
The demise of the Soviet Union was the greatest geopolitical catastrophe of the century.
Vladimir Putin
I think the American people should express their preferences and we'll accept their choice.
Vladimir Putin
The thing is, however strange it may seem, that the interests of the United States and of the Russian Federation do coincide sometimes.
Vladimir Putin
After the demise of the Soviet Union, we had many problems of our own for which no one was responsible but ourselves: the economic downfall, the collapse of the welfare system, the separatism, and of course the terror attacks that shook our country. In this respect, we do not have to look for guilty parties abroad.
Vladimir Putin
Looking at the map of the Russian Federation, one can see a country covering mostly northern areas today more than 70 percent of our territory is or can be referred to as northern, if not the Far North. We have a rather small warm Black sea strip in the South and - to tell the truth - quite a few regions with a hospitable warm climate.
Vladimir Putin
We conducted talks on border issues with our friends in the People's Republic of China for 40 years. There were also issues related to specific territories.
Vladimir Putin
If there were any in China and Russia in this connection, though we both made some compromises. But these were compromises between friendly countries. I think it is almost impossible to achieve such compromise in other ways.
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
Even if we do not always agree on every aspect, nobody should take this as an excuse to declare us as enemies.
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.
