Ukrainian - Ukraine crisis. News in brief. Wednesday 7 June. [Ukrainian sources] Empty Putin: 'I am not a woman, so I don’t have bad days'

Putin: 'I am not a woman, so I don’t have bad days'

Russian President Vladimir Putin is always at his best, he tells director Oliver Stone in a new documentary called "The Putin Interviews" that will air on Showtime June 12-15. The politician attributes his stamina and stability in part to the fact that he's a man.

As Bloomberg reports, "'I am not a woman, so I don't have bad days,' he tells Stone while giving a tour of the Kremlin's gilded throne room. 'I am not trying to insult anyone. That's just the nature of things. There are certain natural cycles.'"

Later in the interview for the documentary, which Bloomberg describes as friendly bordering on fawning, Putin reminds Stone that he is a "Judo master" in peak physical shape.

Elsewhere, Putin is shown indulging his now-familiar passion for playing ice hockey, and flexing his muscles on an exercise machine. He told Stone that he lifts weights and then swims every day. Putin's also seen feeding carrots to a thoroughbred horse named after Dutch theoretical physicist Johannes Diderik van der Waals at his residence.

This kind of swagger is not unusual for the 64-year-old, who appears to enjoy being photographed shirtless in the outdoors as well as while holding firearms and playing sports, and who recently bragged that Russia's prostitutes are "undoubtedly the best in the world."....................

NATO implements biggest reinforcement of collective defense due to Russia's aggression in Ukraine, - Stoltenberg

Member countries of the North Atlantic Alliance are ready to continue strengthening their collective defense in order to be able to resist the possible aggression of the Russian Federation.

NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg said in an interview with VOA, Censor.NET reports.

The head of NATO says members of the alliance are united in their stance toward Russia in a way they have not been for many years.

According to him, NATO is committed to stepping up its defense while at the same time continuing dialogue with Russia.

"The dual track approach, meaning we have to be strong, we have to deliver credible deterrence and defense, that is the reason we are implementing the biggest reinforcement of our collective defense now as a response to what Russia did in Ukraine," Stoltenberg said. "It's not an easy dialogue, but that's exactly why the dialogue is important."

The approach is a modern version of the Cold War NATO "dual-track" decision that linked deployments of U.S. long-range theater nuclear forces to proposals for negotiations with Moscow over Soviet forces in Eastern Europe.

"Ukraine is not worth it": in Russia, Putin explained the main message to Washington

Russian President Vladimir Putin has repeatedly trying to convince the United States that the post-Soviet space - this is his "vassal territory", and that the Kremlin is not interested in a war with the United States.

This opinion was "Internet" stated Russian lawyer Mark Feigin, commenting on the fragment of a film by American director Oliver Stone about Vladimir Putin.

In particular, assessing the phrase the president of Russia that "no one would have survived," "hot," Russian opposition phase and the United States, the lawyer said: "This is the usual rhetoric I would not attach any special significance, Putin has repeatedly spoken about the future of nuclear.. . war In particular, when it came to the Crimea, he said: "We were prepared to use nuclear weapons" - if there were NATO troops."

"Do not survive a nuclear war - is the Soviet rhetorical argument that a nuclear war there are no winners, that it will lead to nuclear winter, etc. Naturally, the conflict between Russia and the United States is fraught with this development," - agreed Feigin.

At the same time, he drew attention to the fact that this phrase sounded in the movie by American director and was apparently addressed to the leadership of the United States. "In a sense, this is another attempt to tell the Americans that the war between the two countries for Putin not an option resolve any issues Putin such a war with the United States does not want to Putin's main goal -.. This division of zones of influence" - says the lawyer.

In this context, he added: "In the history of Ukraine, the capture of the Crimea, and so on, Putin repeatedly tries to show: I'm acting on its own territory, I think it's a vassal territory, give me a chance to settle as a regional power, and in return I will never I will not attempt to violations of uS interests. we do not have to face, we need not fight. Ukraine is not worth it."

"I think that's a message of Putin repeatedly attempts to send the American establishment But the film -. Not a good tool for this, because it still is present a piece of propaganda and art" - said Feigin.

As he wrote "The Observer", in an interview with the American director Oliver Stone, President Vladimir Putin said that in the war between Russia and the United States , if it is from the "cold" has become a "hot", there would be no winners.
