Xinhua: Medvedev says Russia remains reliable energy partner

Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev said Thursday Russia would continue contributing to global and regional energy security despite economic difficulties.

"Our country has a deserved reputation as a reliable and responsible partner in the energy markets," Medvedev told the 14th ministerial meeting of the International Energy Forum, which was boycotted by U.S. and British representatives.

Noting Moscow equally valued its European and Asian partners, Medvedev said it was the Asia-Pacific region that currently shaped global economic process.

"Russia, being an integral part of that region, is going to actively participate in cooperation with the Asia-Pacific countries which are our current and future markets," the Interfax news agency quoted him as saying.
