LISBON, Portugal - Russian President Vladimir Putin warned Thursday against new international sanctions against Iran, saying they would lead to a dead end.

"It's not the best way to resolve the situation by running around like a madman with a razor blade in his hand."
Putin said the standoff around Iran's nuclear program needs to be resolved through talks, pointing at North Korea as an example.
