Russian President, Vladamir Putin has said that women in the country are free to decide if they want to have sex with World Cup tourists or not.The Russian leader was responding to a call by Russia’s head of parliament’s committee for families, Tamara Pletnyova, deterring Russian women from having sexual relations with foreign tourists.

The president said the women should have right to make their own decision.

Putin’s spokesman, Dmitry Peskov told reporters, “They can, perhaps, decide it on their own. They are best in the world.”

Pletnyova had said on Thursday that when Russian women marry foreigners, the relationships end badly and women are stranded abroad or in Russia but unable to get their children back.

She said for this reason, Russian women should avoid having sex with foreign tourists, who will come to the country during the 2018 FIFA World Cup.

More than 1.5 million tourists are expected to visit Russia during the course of the one-month long World Cup tournament and Pletnyova said that the women of the country should be cautious and prevent themselves from engaging in sexual relations.
