Russian President Vladimir Putin has criticised the United States and its Western allies for what he describes as an attempt to force their will on the world.
Speaking at a conference in Munich, Putin attacked the concept of a "unipolar world', NDTV.com reports.

"Russia’s energy policy is dictated by the market and not subject to political speculation, economic pressure or blackmail," he said.
