Russia supports any steps aimed at restoring relations with European countries, President Vladimir Putin said late on Thursday, adding the outbreak of any
conflict would leave a situation with no winners.
Commenting on his phone call this week with the leaders of Norway and Finland, Putin said Russia was prepared for a potential war with Europe, though it did not want one.
“We support any steps…we support any actions aimed at restoring full-fledged and complete relations with European countries,” Putin told reporters after hosting a summit with African leaders.
