Long-serving Russian president, Vladimir Putin, has therefore said that he would address disputes with the West after an election that saw him return to the Kremlin with a record vote share.

"From our side, we will do all we can so that the disputes with our (international) partners be resolved by political and diplomatic means," he stated during a meeting on Monday with the seven other candidates he resoundingly defeated.
"It goes without saying that not everything depends on us -- as with love, both sides have to be involved, otherwise there can be no love at all," he said.
