Vladimir Putin is pretty infamous for his no-nonsense approach to politics. He’s also known for not giving a damn for anyone’s sensitivities. Ever since Muslim-controlled Turkey shot down a Russian jet last month, Putin has been upping his rhetoric against the religion. After announcing his thoughts on imposing some stricter sanctions on the country, he said something that is likely to draw some ire from more sensitive Muslims.
Putin said during a press conference that he was not interested in “saber-rattling” with Turkey. He promised stronger sanctions on the country. After Putin’s statements the Russian Energy Minister Alexander Novak announced that Russia would be ending the talks on the Ankara Turkish gas steam pipeline, a move designed, he said, “to emphasize the strength of Kremlin anger.”
Between Putin’s relatively gentle chiding and Mr. Novak’s more aggressive announcement to halt energy discussions with Turkey, it’s clear that Putin wishes he could do more. And perhaps he would, if the NATo countries could be convinced to coordinated their attacks with Russian military.

He is only an allie economically, and he has warned that nation also.
Muslims = prehistoric religion…wake up
Anything that infuriates a muslim is okay with me.
The only country that doesn’t put pressure on the Muslims is the one run by Obama!
I respect President Putin! Islamics is what we all have to work together to get them under control!
Keep it up, Mr. Putin!
THAT IS A REAL LEADER
He is not going to put up with their b******t
“Barbat”. Comedia e pentru noi, in spate se joaca amical. Incercati sa dati jos un avion sovietic(scuzati mi-a scapat) din greseala nu voit, si vedeti ce mai ramane din voi sa duca tratative dupa.
