Finnish President Tarja Halonen today meets with Russia’s Dmitry Medvedev in Sochi for bilateral talks

Location

“Timely international issues” are on the agenda, a press release from the Finnish President’s office reads. It is less than four months since the two presidents last time met. That was in Helsinki and then energy and security issues were high on the agenda. The talks take place in one of Russia’s biggest construction sites, the place for the 2014 Olympic Winter Games.
