The world needs Russia and no decision by the so-called leaders in Washington and Brussels can change this. This was stated by Russian President Vladimir Putin at a meeting of the Valdai Club.
“The mere fact that on Valdai’s anniversary he brought together such a representative audience speaks, it seems to me, for itself… The world needs Russia, and no decision by Washington or Brussels, supposedly superior to the others, can change this.” — Putin said, quoted on the Kremlin’s telegram channel.
