Thread: Putin slams US for making world more dangerous

Russian President Vladimir Putin launched a full-frontal attack on the United States Saturday, saying it had made the world a more dangerous place and left successive conflicts unresolved.
Addressing an audience of senior officials and politicians including many from the United States and the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO), Putin said the United States had "overstepped" its borders with disastrous results.
The Russian leader, who spearheaded opposition to the 2003 invasion of Iraq by the United States and its allies, accused Washington of operating by "separate norms."
"The United States has overstepped its borders in all spheres - economic, political and humanitarian and has imposed itself on other states," he told delegates at the 43rd Munich Conference on Security Policy.
"One-sided illegitimate action hasn't solved a single problem and has become a generator of many human tragedies, a source of tension," Putin said.
"Local and regional wars didn't get fewer. The number of people who died didn't get less but increased significantly."
The United States, he said, had gone "from one conflict to another without achieving a fully-fledged solution to any of them."
Putin also took aim at US plans to site a missile defense system close to Russia's border in NATO countries the Czech Republic and Poland, adding that any further enlargement of the alliance would be inappropriate.
Analysts say that Russia's relations with the United States have deteriorated significantly under Putin, who has tried to restore Russia's prestige since the economic collapse that followed the Soviet Union's 1991 collapse.
US Democratic Congresswoman Jane Harmen charged that Russian experts had helped Iran develop an indigenous missile capability in the 1990s.
Putin denied that claim, saying Russia was "less involved than anyone" in such technology transfers.

He is learning from me...

yeah well. Russia is not the pushover that it was back in the late soviet days; there is nothing to 'rally' the troops behind, they aren't communist anymore, and they are making a lot of new weapons for the 'rogue regiemes' to have.

Ooh, Putin slammed us?

I'm gonna cry.

The set of balls that guy must have.

"Every single time we try and rape and plunder our neighbors, the damn Americans have already raped and plundered them"

"After 2 decades of direct,personal involvment in the slaughter in Chechnya, I feel I must do something to stop the US violence towards others. I must make a principled stand"

"As I was saying to one of my mob buddies over the dead body of some journalist or politician who spoke against me the other day, the US has gone too far in its criminal ways"
