arrested in the u.s. and sent back to their homeland? vladimir putin for the hour. next on "larry king live." good evening. vladimir putin is the prime minister of russia. he previously served as president of the russian federation. it's a great pleasure to welcome him back to "larry king live." mr. prime minister, we thank you for joining us. we know -- let's start right off, we know that you're eligible to run again for the presidency in 2012. are you thinking about doing that? >> translator: we've been working with president medvedev in very close contact and we decided long time ago, that we'll adopt a concerted decision as regards to year 2012 in the interest of the russian people. >> larry: so that is a maybe?

>> translator: we'll see. there is still quite time before the elections take place. that should be in april, year 2012. once again, we will be in consultations and we'll adopt that decision based on the economic, social and political situation in the country. >> larry: okay. let's get to current things. what do you make of the release of the united states diplomatic and military documents by the wikileaks group? >> translator: some experts believe that somebody is deceiving wikileaks. their reputation being undermined. to use them for their own political purposes later on. that's one of the possibilities there. and that's the opinion of the

experts. and also you have such opinion expressed here. if it's not so, then it tells us that it's necessary for the diplomatic services to be more attentive to their cables. such leaks occurred before in previous times. so this is no catastrophe. i don't see this as being a catastrophe. >> larry: how about documents that include a cable in which defense secretary robert gates, united states, is reported to have told his french counterpart that russian democracy has disappeared and that the government is being run by security services? what's your response to the american secretary of defense saying that? >> translator: i know mr. gates. i met him several times. i believe he's a very nice person.

and he is not a bad expert too. but it is known also that mr. gates was one of the leaders of cia of the united states of america before. and today he happens to be the secretary of defense. now, if he's the best expert in democracy in the united states of america, then i congratulate you with that. >> larry: so he is wrong in saying that your country is being run by secret security services? >> translator: he's been deeply misled. our country is led by the people of the russian federation through the legitimately elected government and the parliament authorities of the president and the prime minister of the russian federation. now, as regards to democracy, this has been a long-term dispute with our american colleagues. i'd like to recall the fact that twice, twice, in the history of the united states of america, there were cases, the candidate

to the presidency who subsequently became president of the united states, voted by majority of electorate, with the delegates presenting the lesser number of electorate as a whole. is that democracy? when we're talking with our american friends and tell them there are systemic problems in this regard, we can hear from them, don't interfere with our affairs. this is our tradition and it's going to continue like that. we are not interfering. but to our colleagues, i would also like to advise, you don't interfere either. that's the sovereign choice of the russian people. the russian people have unilaterally made their choice in direction of democracy in the early '90s. they will not be led astray. nobody should be having any doubts.

russia has interest in that and will do that. now, as regards to the questions posed by mr. gates in this diplomatic cables, that has to do with evidence desire to apply pressure to the allies in specific matters. such matters arise in big numbers. i say yes, you need to apply pressure to russian. they're not democratic. you should do this and that because they're not democratic. we've heard that thousands of times. we started to dismiss such allegations as yet they've been using it as a tool of the foreign policy of the u.s. and i think it's erroneous approach to dealing with the russian federation. >> larry: what, mr. prime minister, is the -- how would you describe the relationship between you and president medvedev? there are some who say the statement goes that you're batman and he's robin. >> translator: well, you know,

when myself and mr. medvedev were deciding on how we will build on our cooperation in the future, now at present, how we'll build on our relationship, when we decided as to how we should build the electorate campaign, for the presidency in year 2008, we were fully aware of the fact that many people would try to introduce a split in our joint approach to the construction of the russian federation, economy and otherwise. truth of the matter is, this is about our interaction, which is an important factor of the domestic policies in this country. but to be honest with you, we didn't suspect that this would be done with such arrogance, with such a push and being so unethically done. such assertions indeed are aimed to slander one of us to get

under the skin, to provoke some steps which might disrupt, destroy the productive interaction in running this country. i have to tell you that we got used to it, and i will ask all of those who try such attempts to be quiet about it. >> larry: we will be right back with the prime minister of russia, vladimir putin. we'll ask about the situation on the korean peninsula right after this. ♪ when it's planes in the sky ♪ ♪ for a chain of supply, that's logistics ♪ ♪ when the parts for the line ♪ ♪ come precisely on time ♪ that's logistics ♪ ♪ a continuous link, that is always in sync ♪ ♪ that's logistics ♪ ♪ there will be no more stress ♪

your foreign minister last week said there's a colossal danger of an escalation there. do you share that fear? >> translator: yes, indeed. the situation is very worrisome and very acute. and we can't but be worried about that. whatever happened is in the very vicinity of our -- if it were. having said that, we can't a lot on the fact that the prudence will get upper hand there. emotions will be shelved. and the dialogue will be started. without a dialogue, it is not possible to come to an agreement. jointly with the partners, including the united states of america, we've been working closely as regards to the settlement of the north korean

peninsula having to do with the nuclear programs and settlement regarding the direction and relations between the two parties involved and at different stages of this effort. this work provided us with different outcomes. sometimes very positive and impressive results. and i count a lot that we'll resume this positive trend of action. >> larry: china has proposed sitting down now, six-party talk, the two korea, china, united states, russia and japan, sitting down now. do you support that? >> translator: well, the president is in charge of our foreign policies and this question should primarily be addressed to him. generally speaking, russia is interested in the continuation of that dialogue. >> larry: do you think china should do more? it has a lot of influence in north korea.

to rein in north korea? >> translator: well, you know, this position taken by the state department of the united states. but basically speaking, we all need to do whatever it takes in order that the situation would be on the track of normalcy from now on. the chinese have leverage over impact of economy in the first place. but most importantly, what we need to remember, we should respect the interests of the korean people. both in the north and in the south of that peninsula. we should be patient and we should choose the right mode of speech with them and work out a united position there of all states involved in this quite a complex negotiation process. the unit of approach is what really matters. it's a guarantee of our joint success there. >> larry: do you share of

concern of many other nations that iran is moving toward becoming a nuclear power? is russia okay with that? >> translator: the iranian nuclear program is being implemented for over 20 years now. as of late, recently in recent years, iran has demonstrated in various ways the readiness to engage in dialogue with international community, iaea included. we know the initial stages have witnessed some activities which raised questions and we supported iaea to get answers to those questions. you certainly know that we're concerned with any expression of the proliferation or any possibility, theoretical possibility, of proliferation of

weapons of mass destruction. this relates to absolutely all states, including iran. having said that, we don't have any grounds to suspect iran. in the sense that they seek to possess nuclear arms. but we've been cooperating with all our partners, including the u.s. of america, in the premise of the united nations organizations. as you know, up to now, we've been able to adopt concerted positions. our position is open. iran is aware of our position. and we'll continue to cooperate with all the participants of this process, up till the final settlement of that problem. and i count greatly on the fact that this settlement will occur and i believe that this is the interest of the neighbors of

iran. israel are very much afraid of the iranian programs. iran also and the iranian people as well. i don't see that in any way as being prejudice or undermining the interests of iran. if they were to fully open all their programs and satisfy the legitimate interest of the international organization, iaea, that is in their effort. >> larry: we'll take a break -- >> translator: i don't see that as being -- at the same time, i still maintain that iran has a right to implement nuclear programs under the oversight of the international organizations. >> larry: when we come back, we'll ask about the possible ratification or nonratification of the treaty between the united states and russia. don't go away. for women over 50.

>> larry: we're back with prime minister putin. a great pleasure to welcome him to "larry king live." there's a lot of concern now about this new treaty your

president medvedev warned that there would be a new arms race if nato and moscow don't agree on a joint missile shield. and what happens to the relations between the two countries? will there be another arms race if the united states doesn't ratify? >> translator: no. talking today before the federal assembly, president medvedev mentioned the fact that we just put forward a proposal as to how jointly working, all of us tackling joint problem of security, could share responsibility between ourselves. and this problem should be necessarily dealt with through these joint effort in the first place. but if our proposals will be met with negative answers only and on top of that, at our borders

will be built additional threats as this new version of the third defense region there, russia will have to ensure her own security through different means and ways. to put in place a new striking forces against the threats which have been built there against the new threats created along our borders. the new missile nuclear will be put in place. that's our choice. we don't want that to happen. this is no threat on our part. we've been simply saying that this is what expects all of us to happen if we don't agree on joint effort there. that's it. once again, we don't want this to happen at all. >> larry: well, you're saying it's not a threat but it does sound like a threat.

"the wall street journal" today reporting that america believes you're moving short-range tactical nuclear warheads near nato allies as recently as this spring. was that true? >> translator: larry, please listen to me now. i want you and all the american people to know this. at least those spectators who follow our program here. it's not us who are moving forward our missiles to your territory. it's you who are planning to mount missiles at the vicinity of our borders, of our territory. we've been told that you'll do it in order to secure against the, let's say, iranian threat. but such a threat as of now does not exist. now if the countermissiles will be deployed in the year 2012 along our borders -- or '15 -- they will work against our nuclear potential there, our nuclear arsenal. and certainly that worries us.

and we are obliged to take some actions in response. we're talking about action in response. not about taking the first initiative there. and in lisbon, the president medvedev was very specific in his proposals. boiling down to the fact that part of responsibility for ensuring security in europe should be taken upon by nato. and part of responsibility of joint responsibility that is should be taken upon by russia. and here to say we could agree with nato and that's to say with the united states too on the exchange of information, on joint control over those facilities. the military experts can agree

upon all those things. if a good will is to be exercised there. but if in a very dumb nature people will ignore your interests, we'll do whatever we want to do there, and then we'll regard that as a threat to ourselves. then we'll have to react somehow. i want the american public to hear this. >> larry: and you've said it straight and we'll be right back with more of the prime minister of russia, vladimir putin, after this. i said "sure." "well, let's grow some algae." and that's what started it. exxonmobil and synthetic genomics have built a new facility to identify the most productive strains of algae. algae are amazing little critters. they secrete oil, which we could turn into biofuels. they also absorb co2. we're hoping to supplement the fuels that we use in our vehicles, and to do this at a large enough scale to someday help meet the world's energy demands. yeah. aww...that oj needs alka-seltzer plus. fast powder packs are a taste-free fizz-free way

>> larry: we will touch some other bases with the prime minister of vladimir putin of russia coming to us tonight from moscow. what's your assessment of president obama? >> translator: such assessment is to be provided by the electorate. by the people who voted for him. basically american citizens first. but looking to outside to provide an assessment there, generally speaking, i say president obama has been confronted with very serious challenges. especially in this year of economy. it's not up to me to judge whether he has taken right or wrong steps when he passed through the parliament, the law on health care for one.

but i don't doubt the fact that in this particular case, very sensitive for americans. two, obama did whatever he could to respond to the aspirations of the american people. who had been understood by him. he promised to do that. he did that. were thankful to him for the fact that he has softened the rhetoric in the u.s./russia relations. and in practical terms, he put further away this idea of the defense region in europe approach. which provided us with a possibility of dialogue. we want some time there to try and implement this very plan. which was put forward by the

president medvedev in lisbon. >> larry: this is puzzling. ten russian sleeper agents were arrested in the united states earlier this year. then sent back to russia in a spy swap. you met with them after their deportation. what was your impression? i mean, you were very involved with the kgb. what was this all about? what did they tell you? >> translator: well, basically, as regards strictly business, we had -- yes, we talked to different topics with them. what can i tell you now? these are the people who naturally deserve respect. i've said it before. i can repeat it again. with their activities, they didn't cause any harm to the

interests of the united states of america. as you know, they belong to a special service, clandestine service, with their own tasks to tackle. these tasks, as a rule, become pertinent in the crisis periods like when the diplomatic relations would have been suspended or cut. thanks god such a status of affairs we have not witnessed in the relations between russia and u.s. today, and i hope it will never occur in our relations in future. >> larry: so they do no what you would call spying under your direction? >> translator: they had their own tasks to address. they are involved in the clandestine activities.

the main purpose of which is to be actively involved during the crisis times. and when the diplomatic ties are suspended. when other means of intelligence service are sometimes not possible. these did not cause any harm to the interests of the united states of america. having said that, any country, including the united states of america, is engaged in intelligence gathering. nobody doubts that. incidentally, the activities of our -- secret service that are compared to the u.s. services looking much better. thanks god neither these agents, nor others, were seen as organizing clandestine prisons or hostage taking or torturing people. >> larry: we will ask the prime minister about afghanistan and other things. ask him about george bush's new

>> larry: we're back with prime minister putin. the former ussr. spent nine years fighting in afghanistan. in fact, i believe we discussed this last time we were together ten years ago. they spent -- your country spent there without victory. some call it the soviet union's vietnam. do you think the united states will do any better in afghanistan? >> translator: first, i don't think it would be right to make such a comparison with regard to afghanistan. our troops withdrew from afghanistan in organized, quiet manner. after withdrawal of our troops,

the regime which had been supported by the soviet union, lost it for three years in a quiet mode. it was destroyed by taliban. virtually after the collapse of the soviet union when there was no longer any support to be provided by the former soviet union to them. i believe that the soviet union made many mistakes there. the blunder was the fact that soviet troops were there in the first place. it was not the thing to do. that's evident. now, as regards current presence of american troops and of the international coalition troops in afghanistan, indeed, the situation has seriously changed there. likewise, you cannot compare our presence in afghanistan with vietnam. in the same manner, you cannot compare the u.s. and

international presence in afghanistan today with the soviet presence in the late '80s there. well, you know, i would think that the international coalition in afghanistan today is carrying out an important and positive mission. we cannot and shall not be present there militarily ourselves. but we've been rendering assistance. both to the american partners and other partners of the international coalition in afghanistan in various ways and means. we have agreed to ensure transit and we've been doing that. including not only by air but also by surface. we've been relating important pertinent information, including

we have got it through our special services, that we should have mentioned a few minutes earlier. this could be related to an absolute positive side of our interaction. there were instances when our helicopter flyers took out american and dutch military staff from the battlefield being fired on by the enemy. and there are other means to support the international efforts in afghanistan. for example, assisting the government in office and the arms forces of afghanistan. this is whole set -- a big set of joint work there.

we count on the fact that this effort will bear positive fruit. >> larry: let's discuss the former president george bush. in his new memoir, "decision points," he calls you -- describes you as sometimes cocky, sometimes charming, always tough. he also calls you wily and cold-blooded. earlier though he said when he had first met you he looked into your eyes and he saw a vibrant soul there -- i'm a -- that's a -- paraphrasing what he said. what was your relationship with the former president. >> translator: they were warm relations, good, kind human relationship. he visited me in my house. i visited him in his house, including at his rancho. he have different views on many issues involved, of course, but one thing is for sure, george bush, the junior, is a very

decent fellow. and he's a very nice partner too. >> larry: so i'm gathering you liked him a lot -- >> translator: -- and he has a very good family. i was very pleased when i visited his father's house. in human terms, yes. but still we had different approaches while dealing with the same questions at hand. >> larry: will you read his book? >> translator: i know some of the abstracts of this book already. i don't agree fully with what he has written there of course. but i'm sure he has forgotten a few things. if we meet with him, i will remind him of certain things too. >> larry: we'll take a break and we'll be right back with prime minister putin right after this. c t adththod easy-to-swallow petes.

you in english. and i can understand quite a lot which allows me sometimes without interpreter to deal with my colleagues, you know, in a semibusiness manner. >> larry: okay. later this week, fifa will announce which country will host the 2018 world cup. do you think you have a good chance to host it? >> translator: yes, i do think we have such chances. and i proceed from the assumption that our contenders will make an emphasis on the fact that they're ready to go with the world cup already. but why do we need to hold the world cup where they already have everything in place? the philosophy of fifa is to expand world soccer, space, to spread out the world football space.

in eastern europe, there has never been a case of world cup being staged there. therefore, we are a very natural contender. our problem is, however, about the fact that as of late during this competition race, i'm sure the fifa members have been slandered absolutely groundlessly. they want to compromise that organization. and that is exactly that organization involved in not only organizing soccer features, soccer games. they are currently fulfilling a very important social program. to really advertise healthy mode of life. putting aside alcoholism among youngsters. but also building on relationship between peoples and states. it's a very important function

they have. >> larry: who -- >> translator: and we count greatly on the fact that the members of fifa will adapt the relevant decision in favor of russia's choice. >> larry: who is slandering them? >> translator: in competitive stripe, many people try to do that. we're aware of the fact there has been a lot of information surfacing in bbc but allegation is one thing. you have to prove the case. i believe this is not a right manner of competition for the right to hold this world cup as it were. >> larry: will you go to zurich to make a personal appeal? >> translator: i've been reflecting on that. but i believe that under the current circumstances, when the fifa members are being attacked

like that, when attempts are being made to compromise them, we need to give these people a chance to adopt an objective decision without any pressure from outside. >> larry: all right, we'll be right back -- >> translator: -- sport all my life. i love soccer. >> larry: let me get a break. we'll be right back with more of the prime minister following this. and to lactaid® milk. easy to digest and with all the calcium and vitamin d of regular milk.
