Dmitry Medvedev congratulated American President Barack Obama on winning the 2009 Nobel Peace Prize

October 10, 2009

The congratulatory message reads, in part:

”I think this Nobel Committee decision is evidence of a realistic vision of the dynamics of global development. I hope that it will serve as an additional impetus to our joint work to create a new climate in international politics and promote initiatives of crucial importance for global security.

I want to confirm my readiness for further constructive cooperation in developing Russian-American relations on the basis of equality, mutual respect, regard for each other's interests and for the benefits of world peace and stability.“
