Russia is ready to help solve the migration crisis on Belarus' borders with the EU, President Vladimir Putin said on Sunday. At the same time, he rejected the accusations against Russia and announced that the West was trying to shift its responsibility to it.
"When we hear accusations against us, I want to say to everyone: deal with your internal problems, do not transfer your own cases to anyone that should be dealt with by your respective ministries," Putin said in a television interview.
He added that, however, Russia is ready to help in any way to settle the situation, if, of course, something depends on it.
He repeated his assurance that Russia has no connection with the situation on the Belarusian border. It is the Western countries "themselves to blame for this crisis."
Putin also announced that he did not discuss the situation on the Belarusian border with its leader Alyaksandr Lukashenka, but learned about it from the media.
