At a reception for newly-arrived foreign ambassadors to Russia last week, Mr Putin welcomed Palau's representative, Francis Matsutaro.

Mr Putin said a visa-free travel agreement signed last month between Palau and Russia would help cooperation.

He said the two countries could work together in aviation and naval communications.
