Russian ambassador to the UN, Vitaly Churkin, launched a scathing attack on some council members. He questioned their criticism of the use of force, asking the US representative: "Did you find any weapons of mass destruction in Iraq?"
Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov described talk of sanctions as the working of "a sick imagination".
Mr Putin said in the interview: "The fact is that US citizens were indeed in the area in conflict during the hostilities. It should be admitted that they would do so only following direct orders from their leaders."
Mr Putin added: "The American side in effect armed and trained the Georgian army. "Why... seek a difficult compromise solution in the peacekeeping process? It is easier to arm one of the sides and provoke it into killing another side. And the job is done".
