MOSCOW, Sept. 2 (UPI) -- The Kremlin is threatening to release the recording of a call between Russian President Vladimir Putin and EU Commission President Jose Manuel Barroso after accusing Barroso of taking Putin's words out of context.
Vladimir Chizhov, Russia's ambassador to the European Union, said the country will release the contents of the call unless Barroso objects within two days. This comes after Putin's foreign policy adviser Yuri Ushakov accused the EU president of breaching diplomatic confidentiality and taking his words out of context.
