GUBKIN
(Belgorod region). July 14. /TASS/. Russia will not wedge any war, but will
defend its interests in international arena in a civilized manner, President
Vladimir Putin said on Friday.
"We
are not going to argue, quarrel or wedge a war, but we proceed from the fact
that we should not be ignored and our legitimate interests and rights have to
be respected," Putin told workers of the Lebedinsky iron-ore mining and
processing plant.
Russia is
the largest country in the world, with a rather big population, he said.
"We
cannot but have our own interests and we will be defending them. However, we
will be doing it by all legal means necessary," he said, noting
Russia should produce impartial information about itself and its history for
this purpose.
