Putin, like a true gentleman, apologised once again to Merkel for the incident with the dog in Sochi in 2007.

He didn't want to scare her.

'Frankly speaking, I already told Merkel about it, that I didn't know she was afraid of dogs. If I had known - I would never have done it. On the contrary, I wanted to create a relaxed, pleasant atmosphere. Later I found out she was afraid of dogs, it happens.

Here we are talking, it's all going to be in the media, and I turn to her once more:

'Angela, please forgive me. I didn't mean to cause you any heartache. On the contrary, I wanted to create a favourable atmosphere for our conversation. I apologise. If you ever come again, I won't do it under any circumstances'.
