Putin blasts Obama: ‘Who is he to judge?’



If President Obama wants to make accusations against Russia, he should go get a job as a courtroom lawyer, Russian President Vladimir Putin said Friday.

Speaking at a St. Petersburg economic conference hosted by CNBC, the Russian leader had choice words for Mr. Obama and said the U.S. is in no position to judge Russia’s actions in Ukraine.

Mr. Putin denied that Moscow is fomenting unrest and violence in Ukraine, which is set to hold crucial nationwide elections on Sunday. Claims to the contrary, Mr. Putin said, aren’t valid.
