Putin gets frank behind wheel driving 350 km through Far East

Russian Prime Minister Vladimir Putin has made some quite straightforward statements in his interview to the Kommersant Daily's correspondent Andrey Kolesnikov. The location of their conversation was rather unusual, as the two spoke while Putin was driving a Russian-built, yellow Lada Kalina Sport car along the new highway connecting the country's East and West. The premier wanted to inspect the road between Khabarovsk and Chita personally. During the trip with the journalist, the premier outlined his view on both internal and foreign policy, commented on the presidential election in 2012 and stated that he has nothing to regret.
