Vladimir Putin has accused US President Barack Obama of hostility towards Russia over the Ukraine conflict.
The Russian president made the comment in a newspaper interview before visiting the Serbian capital Belgrade.
He was referring to a UN speech by Mr Obama last month in which he listed "Russia's aggression" in eastern Ukraine among top global threats, alongside Islamic State and the ebola outbreak.
Mr Putin told the Serbian daily Politika it was "hard to call such an approach anything but hostile".
"We are hoping our partners will understand the recklessness of attempts to blackmail Russia, [and] remember what discord between large nuclear powers can do to strategic stability," he said.
He branded attempts to isolate Russia over Ukraine "a completely absurd, illusory goal" and accused the US of meddling in his country's affairs.
Mr Putin, who is set to meet Ukrainian leader Petro Poroshenko in Milan on Friday, called on Kiev to start nationwide dialogue.
He said it was "a real opportunity has appeared to halt military confrontation, essentially civil war".
Russia is at odds with the West over its annexation of Crimea from Ukraine in March and its support for separatist fighters in the former Soviet country's eastern region.
In retaliation the United States and European Union have imposed sanctions on Russia which have damaged its already stuttering economy.
Despite the tensions with Europe, Mr Putin was guaranteed a warm welcome in Serbia, which is one of Russia's staunchest allies.
During his visit he was due to address crowds at a military parade marking the 70th anniversary of Belgrade's liberation from Nazi occupation - an event brought forward by four days in his honour.
