Russian president says he may seek re-election
http://news.xinhuanet.com/english2010/world/2011-05/19/c_13883860.htm

MOSCOW, May 19 (Xinhua) -- Russian President Dmitry Medvedev said Thursday that he would not rule out the possibility of seeking re-election, the RIA Novosti news agency reported.

Medvedev was asked by a reporter after talks with visiting Austrian President Heinz Fisher, if there was hope he would remain "a direct partner of the Austrian president" after the 2012 presidential elections.

"If you put the question like that -- whether one can hope -- the answer is yes, absolutely," he said.

Fischer said Medvedev would be welcome in Austria "in any capacity."

2. I can see him
deciding against this very soon. When will he appear with an eye-patch and riding accident associated broken bones?
