MOSCOW, October 25. /TASS/. European authorities who blame Moscow for the unrest in their countries, do not analyze the underlying causes of the events, but look for someone to hold responsible instead, Russian President Vladimir Putin said.

In an interview with Vesti reporter Pavel Zarubin, the head of state noted that such accusations reveal the weakness of leaders in a number of European countries.

"And that’s bad for them. Why? Because instead of analyzing the events unfolding or looking for the underlying causes, they simply pin the blame on someone else, first on the US, and now on Russia," Putin said.
