Putin accuses US of acting ‘aggressively' in Middle East

Russian President Vladimir Putin on Wednesday accused the US of acting 'aggressively' in the Middle East.

Speaking at an investment conference organized by Russia's second-largest bank, VTB, Putin said the development of new logistics routes is an “inevitable” process backed by the growth of the economy and trade and due to geopolitical risks.

He exemplified his argument with the Suez Canal, saying the volume of cargoes passing through it has decreased, which he said is “regrettable” on the part of his country.
