Putin: Russia has no relations with G7 but ready to cooperate with its members bilaterally

MILAN. June 10 (Interfax) - Russia currently does not maintain any relationship with the G7, Russian President Vladimir Putin said.

"We have no relations with the G7, what relations could there be?" Putin told journalists following negotiations with Italian Prime Minister Matteo Renzi on Wednesday.

At the same time, "if our partners want it, we will be developing active relations with any of the G7 countries on a bilateral basis," he added.
