Putin will skip G8 summit
RUSSIA'S President Vladimir Putin will skip a planned visit to the United States this month for a key global summit and a meeting with President Barack Obama, the Kremlin confirmed yesterday, as he faced pressure from protests and opposition criticism at home.
The White House said on Wednesday that Putin is unable to join other leaders of the Group of Eight industrial nations meeting on May 18-19. The Kremlin said Putin needs to finish work setting up his new government. Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev will go.
