Through his annual “direct line” press conference on Thursday, Russian President Vladimir Putin spent four hours taking questions from the public on subjects ranging from the Ukraine conflict and the Iran nuclear deal to rural transport and the sale of milk to primary schools.

A record three million questions were recorded. The first hour was dominated by discussion of the economy. Later the program moved to Russia’s relations with its neighbors and nations abroad.

The Guardian summed up some of event’s key points:

Iran: Putin insisted lifting a five-year embargo on the delivery of air defence missiles to Iran did not undermine international sanctions since the Russian ban was voluntary. The US and Israel have objected to the move announced this week. Putin said he made the decision since Iran had shown “a desire to reach compromise”. …

Ukraine: The Russian president denied Russian military forces were in Ukraine and said Kiev was violating a peace accord by maintaining an economic blockade on eastern regions under the control of pro-Russian rebels. …

Relations with west: Putin said the west must respect Russia’s interests if it wants to normalise diplomatic relations. He said the US “doesn’t need allies, they only need vassals” and that Russia would never accept that role.
