Limits on Trade with Third Parties Will Ultimately Harm Those Imposing Them, Says Putin

Russian President Vladimir Putin has stated that countries attempting to limit trade with third parties will eventually incur losses themselves.

“Those who try to restrict economic cooperation with third countries will sooner or later suffer losses themselves,” Putin said in an interview with the India Today YouTube channel.

Putin also noted that India has made tremendous progress since gaining independence. “I would like to say that in the mere 77 years since independence, India has achieved significant progress in a very short period of history,” Putin remarked.
