Talks on possible placement of nuclear weapons in Ukraine call into question future of Ukrainian state - Putin

MOSCOW. March 5 (Interfax) - Those who do not want to understand Russia's concerns about the possibility of nuclear weapons being placed in Ukraine call into question the future of this state, Russian President Vladimir Putin said.

"People who don't want to understand that, especially those from today's leadership, should understand that if they continue doing what they are doing, they call into question the future of Ukrainian statehood. And if it happens it will be wholly and fully on their conscience," Putin said at a meeting with women from the cabin crews of Russian airlines.
