'Russia will either be independent, or not exist at all' - Putin

Russian President Vladimir Putin discussed the impact his speech at the 2007 Munich Security Conference had made on the international community. "I considered it correct and timely to articulate our concerns. I didn’t say it to argue with anyone or to put Russia against anyone," Putin stated, revealing that he rewrote the entire prepared speech while onboard the plane. "Russia will either be independent and sovereign, or will not exist at all. I wanted to convey this to our partners in the hope that they would hear and somehow adjust their attitude towards Russia." The president added that the aim was to urge colleagues to embrace co-operation based on mutual respect for each other’s interests, 'without attempting to suppress others’ will'. ​​#putin #russia #geopolitics #america
