Hillary Clinton says Vladamir Putin doing what Hitler did in 30s

Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton has likened Russia President Vladimir Putin to Adolf Hitler and Russia-Ukraine dispute to Nazi Germany.

Clinton said that Putin's decision to issue passports to those in Crimea with ties to Russia is similar to the 'population transfers' that went forth in Germany after World War II, BuzzFeedreported.

According to the Washington Times, during a private event in Southern California, Clinton said Putin was doing what Hitler did back in the '30s'.

Clinton's speech was one of the few foreign policy commentaries she has made publicly since exiting her State Department role in 2013, the report added.
