And Russia is sovereign,” said New Yorker journalist Isaac Hotiner.
Caldwell agreed with this statement, saying that a country can only be considered sovereign if it is able to resist the trends that the US and the EU are imposing.
Hawtiner and Caldwell concluded that Russian President Vladimir Putin shared traditional notions of sovereignty.
Earlier, Putin said that Russia had timely and firmly put up a barrier to attempts to influence the sovereignty of the state.
