RUSSIAN President Vladimir Putin signalled in an interview aired yesterday that he hoped for an end to a dispute with Washington on missile defense if President Barack Obama were re-elected in November, telling Russia's RT television he was "an honest person who really wants to change much for the better."
Putin took aim at Obama's Republican rival Mitt Romney, calling his criticism of Russia "mistaken" campaign rhetoric and suggesting a Romney presidency would widen the rift over the anti-missile shield the United States is deploying in Europe.
Putin also said Russia was not ready to shift its stance on Syria, and suggested Western nations were relying on groups such as al-Qaida to help drive President Bashar Assad from power.
The Russian leader declined to comment on the sentences handed down to three women from punk band Pussy Riot jailed for two years for performing an anti-Putin song.
