"These are not ordinary meetings; they take place in hard polemics. I consider them positive, because negotiation is better than conflict," said Medvedev.
"These are not only negotiations, but also clear steps forward … What we hope is to see an agreed text at the OSCE summit in a month given good job is done. We do believe that it is possible to reach. The main work is still to be done," said he.
