TORZHOK, Russia (Sputnik) - Russian leader Vladimir Putin earlier said that the problem of the West's attitude towards Russia is in its geopolitical interests, arrogant attitude towards others and self-confidence.
Russia does not have unfriendly countries, there are unfriendly elites of these countries, Russian President Vladimir Putin said on Wednesday.
"There are many achievements, even in those countries that we call unfriendly today. Although we do not have unfriendly countries, we have unfriendly elites in these countries," Putin said at a meeting with cultural workers in Russia's Tver Region.
The president also noted that there are plenty of positive things in the European culture, however there are many issues when it comes to the current life in these societies.
