REPORTER: A question for President Putin. Two questions for you, sir. Can you tell me what President Trump may have indicated to you about officially recognizing Crimea as part of Russia? And then secondly, sir, do you, does the Russian government have any compromising material on President Trump or his family?
PUTIN: The posture of President Trump on Crimea is well known and he stands firmly by it, he continue to maintain that it was illegal to annex it. We - our viewpoint is different. We held a referendum in strict compliance with the UN Charter and international legislation.
PUTIN: *chuckles* Yeah, I did heard these rumors that we allegedly collected compromising material on Mr. Trump when he was visiting Moscow. When he was a private individual, a businessman, nobody informed me that he visited Moscow. Well, please just don't think about that anymore again.
