MOSCOW, August 25 (RIA Novosti) - Russian President Dmitry Medvedev will meet with his Belarusian counterpart Alexander Lukashenko on Thursday in Sochi, the Kremlin press service said on Tuesday.

Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko arrived in Sochi, on the Black Sea, last Friday.

Relations between the countries that have been trying for several years to establish a Union State deteriorated recently after numerous economic and political disputes, including Lukashenko's reluctance to sign a deal to set up a CSTO rapid reaction force.
