Moscow/UNI/Sputnik: Russian President Vladimir Putin disagreed with the position of French leader Emmanuel Macron that Russia violated the territorial integrity of Ukraine.
“Not quite so. Or completely wrong," Putin said at a press conference following talks with French President Emmanuel Macron.
"Why did the Western countries support the [2014] coup [in Ukraine]?.. initially, power was seized by force, by means of weapons, with blood. Under these conditions, we were forced to simply protect people who lived in Crimea," Putin said.
