NOVO-OGARYOVO, Russia (Reuters) - President Vladimir Putin said on Tuesday Russia intends to work with Western states using the International Monetary Fund as a potential source of economic aid to Ukraine.

Putin said the West had asked Russia to hold off on releasing further instalments of a $15-billion (8 billion pounds) bailout package which he promised Kiev in December after its government spurned deals with the European Union in favour of closer Russian ties.
