MEDVEDEV: He's very comfortable partner, it's very interesting to be 
with him. The most important thing that distinguishes him from many 
other people -- I won't name anyone by name -- he's a thinker, he thinks 
when he speaks. Which is already pretty good.

STEPHANOPOULOS: You had somebody in your mind, I think. (LAUGHS)

MEDVEDEV: Obviously I do have someone on my mind. I don't want to offend 
anyone. He's eager to listen to his partner, which is a pretty good 
quality for a politician. Because any politician is to a certain degree 
a mentor. They preach something. And the ability to listen to their 
partner is very important for the politician. And he is pretty deeply 
emerged in the subject, so he has a good knowledge of what he's talking 
about. There was no instance in our meetings with Mr. Obama where he 
wasn't well prepared for the questions. This is very good. And after 
all, he's simply a very pleasant man with whom it's a pleasure to deal with.
