Russia still supplies nuclear fuel to the United States, the States act pragmatically, they do not forget themselves, therefore the Russian Federation should do the same, President Vladimir Putin said.

The States, despite everything, act very pragmatically, they do not forget themselves. We still supply nuclear fuel to the USA. And nothing, they buy it with pleasure. But that's the way it is. Why? Because it is profitable. And right, and well done.
Vladimir Putin, President of the Russian Federation

The head of state noted that, unlike the United States, the main economies of Europe have actually "fallen" into recession.

And we must also act - very pragmatically at every step, and we need to do it together: business, here is the administration, labor collectives, as I said. Listen to them, please, to the people, it is always useful. And, of course, the government, the Central Bank.
Vladimir Putin, President of the Russian Federation
