July 18 (Reuters) - Russian President Vladimir Putin said on
Monday it would be impossible to cut Russia off from the rest of
the world, and that the country must focus on developing its own
technology and supporting fast-growing companies.
    "Clearly, we cannot develop in isolation from the rest of
the world, but we won't. In today's world, you can't just, you
know, circle everything with a compass and put up a huge fence,
it's just not possible," Putin said, speaking to a
video-conference with government figures.
