Medvedev says Russia will learn from Beijing Olympics
The president, on the second day of his official visit to Beijing, told students at Peking University that he expected the Beijing games to be "organized at the highest level by China," and wished China success in hosting the event.
"We will be carefully studying and analyzing [the Beijing games], in consideration of the ongoing preparations for the Winter Olympics" to be held in the Black Sea resort city of Sochi, he said.
The Beijing Summer Olympics will be held on August 8-24. International media coverage of the runup to the games has focused on the troubled international torch relay, which was met with demonstrations against China's clampdown on protesters in Tibet.
