Putin admits Russia forcibly imposed Soviet model on E.Europe

Moscow (AFP) - Russian President Vladimir Putin on Thursday admitted that the Soviet Union sought to "forcibly" impose the Soviet model on Eastern Europe after World War II.

"After WWII we tried to impose our model of development on many Eastern European countries and did it by force," Putin said during his annual phone-in with Russians. "We have to admit this. And there's nothing good about it."
