The system of international relations
needed some changes, but the USA, who
believe they were the winners of the Cold
War, have not seen the need for this. He
added that the US has been trying to create
the world for their own gains." The
Russian President added that because of
this, regional and global security had been
weakened.
Putin also touched on the issue of the
growth of Islamic State in Syria and Iraq,
while also accused the West of, "turning a
blind eye," to the encroachment of
international terrorism into Russia and
Central Asia. Putin believes the US has
played a considerable role in sponsoring
the growth of Islamic extremism, using the
example of Washington's funding of the
Mujaheddin in the Afghan-Soviet war in
the 1980's, which eventually gave birth to
the Taliban and Al-Qaeda.
It never ceases to amaze me how our
partners have been guilty of making the
same mistakes time and again. They have
in the past sponsored Islamic extremists
who were battling against the Soviet Union,
which took place in Afghanistan. It was
because of this the Taliban and Al-Qaeda
was created, the president added.
Islamic State (IS, formerly ISIS) is the latest
terrorist organization, which is
destabilizing the world and Putin was
scathing of countries that have been
helping to fund the Islamist militants by
buying cut price oil they are selling.
Terrorists have been selling oil at really
low prices and those countries who have
been buying it and then selling it on, are
financing terrorism, which will eventually
come back to bite them, the Russian
President said.
