On April 14, Russian President Vladimir Putin held the 14th Q&A session with Russians. The program lasted three hours and 39 minutes. During that time, the president answered over 55 questions.
During the Q&A session, Putin said the German newspaper Suddeutsche Zeitung was connected to the U.S. bank Goldman Sachs, which was a consequence of an error by those who prepared reference materials for the president.
