Russian President Vladimir Putin conceded on Monday that the deadly terrorist attack in Moscow last Friday was carried out by "radical Islamists" but insisted that there was a link to Ukraine, without presenting evidence.
Putin told senior Kremlin officials Monday that an investigation into the attack on the Crocus City Hall concert venue, in which 139 people died when gunmen entered the building and shot indiscriminately, "must be carried out in the most professional manner, objectively, without any political bias."
The Islamic State group said it was behind the attack on Friday and published footage of it. Four men appeared in a Moscow court on Sunday night and were charged with terrorism offenses. Three more men were charged Monday.
Putin initially suggested the attack was linked to Ukraine, claiming that the suspects had fled toward the border and that "a window had been prepared for them on the Ukrainian side to cross the border." He did not present any evidence for the claim. Kyiv denies any involvement.

On Monday, Putin appeared to accept that the IS group was responsible for the attack but insisted that there was a link to Ukraine.
"We know that the crime was committed by radical Islamists, whose ideology the Islamic world itself has been fighting for centuries," Putin said, according to comments translated by NBC.
"But we also see that the United States, through various channels, is trying to convince its satellites and other countries of the world that, according to their intelligence data, there is supposedly no Kyiv trace in the Moscow terrorist attack, that the bloody terrorist attack was carried out by followers of Islam, members of the ISIS organization banned in Russia."
U.S. officials have dismissed any Ukrainian involvement in the attack, with White House spokesperson John Kirby telling reporters, "There was no linkage to Ukraine. ... This is just more Kremlin propaganda."
