Russia’s Prime Minister Vladimir Putin harshly criticized the recent UN resolution on Libya (Russia abstained from voting on the resolution), and also U.S. foreign policy. "The resolution is defective and flawed," Putin told workers at a Russian ballistic missile factory. "It allows everything. It resembles medieval calls for crusades." "This U.S. policy is becoming a stable trend," Putin said, recalling the U.S. air strikes on Yugoslavia, Afghanistan and Iraq. "Now it's Libya's turn - under the pretext of protecting civilians," the Premier said. "Where is the logic and conscience? There is neither." Putin went on to add that "the ongoing events in Libya confirm that Russia is right to strengthen her defense capabilities."
