"Following their goals, our geopolitical adversaries, our opponents, as we said just recently, are ready to expose everyone, any country, to turn it into the epicenter of the crisis, provoke a color revolution and unleash a bloody massacre. We have seen all this more than once," Putin said.
"We also know that the West is working out scenarios for inciting new conflicts in CIS space. But we have enough of them anyway. It is enough to look at what is happening now between Russia and Ukraine, what is happening on the borders of some other CIS countries", Putin noted.
"The risks of destabilization are still growing, including the risks of destabilization of the entire Asia-Pacific region," Putin said.
"We have long been convinced that combining the efforts of your agencies expands their capabilities, allows you to achieve better results, make use of available resources more efficient. Therefore, it is necessary to actively develop cooperation in the future, from the exchange of information to joint special operations and personnel training," Putin said.
