The sovereignty of all states, including Ukraine, should be respected, Russian President Vladimir Putin told CBS's 60 Minutes, stressing that he knows "for sure" that the US was involved in the ouster of President Yanukovich in 2014 Speaking to veteran journalist Charlie Rose, Putin said that Russia respects the sovereignty of Ukraine, adding that "at no time in the past, now or in the future has or will Russia take any part in actions aimed at overthrowing the legitimate government." He added that Moscow "would like other countries to respect the sovereignty of other states, including Ukraine. Respecting the sovereignty means preventing coups, unconstitutional actions and illegitimate overthrowing of the legitimate government." It is "absolutely unacceptable" to address issues through unconstitutional means, he said referring to the coup in Ukraine in February 2014. "Our partners in the United States are not trying to hide the fact that they supported those opposed to President Yanukovich," he said. Putin added that he "knows for sure" that the US had in some way helped oust Viktor Yanukovich. Moscow knows "who had meetings and worked with people who overthrew" the ex-president, as well as "when and where they did it," he said. "We know the ways the assistance was provided, we know how much they paid them, we know which territories and countries hosted trainings and how it was done, we know who the instructors were. We know everything. Well, actually, our US partners are not keeping it a secret," he said.
