Putin's annual 'Direct Line' session postponed

Russian President Vladimir Putin's annual live question-and-answer session will be postponed this year, his spokesman has said.

Dmitry Peskov said on March 30 that the Direct Line televised session with Putin, which is usually held in April each year, will be held later this year, but before August.

Peskov said the delay was due to Putin's "tight schedule", RadioFreeEurope/RadioLiberty reports.
