Russian President Vladimir Putin has claimed that weapons being sold from European nations to Ukraine are actually ending up in the hands of the Taliban terrorist group. <\/p>\n

The mad claim was made during a meeting with new members of the Russian Public Chamber. Despite earlier claims that Russia was actually in contact with the terrorists, it now appears that Putin has openly shown disgust at Europe allegedly supplying them with weapons \u2013 albeit unintentionally.<\/p>\n

According to Russia's TASS news agency, Putin said: \u201cThey say now (that) weapons from Ukraine are popping up in the Middle East. Of course they are, because they sell them \u2013 Ukraine also sells weapons to the Taliban, and from there, the weapons spread anywhere. Everything is for sale\u201d<\/p>\n

Putin didn't provide any evidence as to how he knows weapons are being sold from Ukraine, and Ukrainian officials have not commented on the claims either. During the same rant, published in full on the Kremlin-backed news website, he also claimed that the occupied regions of Novorossiya and Donbass are filled with \u201ccorruption\u201d and that Ukraine is \u201cfull of corruption\u201d.<\/p>\n

He claimed: \u201cBelieve me \u2013 I had close contacts with (Ukraine\u2019s) former leaders \u2013 they buy everything: the vote in the Supreme Court, the vote in the Constitutional Court. People in Novorossiya and Donbass were living in such conditions, with everything bogged down in corruption.<\/p>\n
