Former French President Francois Hollande
Business Insider: Putin made a telling blunder in a shouting match with Ukraine's president, France's Hollande says
* Russian President Vladimir Putin became enraged and conspicuously blundered during the 2015 Minsk Agreement talks with Ukraine, according to a book by former French President Francois Hollande.
* Russia illegally annexed Crimea from Ukraine in 2014.
* The US, EU, and other observers say Russia has slyly used non-uniformed soldiers posing as Ukrainian separatists to stoke a war there for years.
* But when Putin was arguing with Ukraine's president, he appeared to slip up and admit he had troops in Ukraine.
* He made a number of other embarrassing blunders at the meeting too, Hollande writes.
Russian President Vladimir Putin became so enraged during a shouting match with Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko that he revealed he was lying about Russia's role in a military uprising in eastern Ukraine, former French President Francois Hollande wrote in a book about his time in office.
In 2014, Russia illegally annexed Crimea from Ukraine and began to support separatists in the eastern part of the country through information warfare, direct shipments of weapons, and by deploying non-uniformed Russian fighters posing as Ukrainians.
