OREANDA-NEWS. December 01, 2010. Education and Science Minister Andrei Fursenko briefed Dmitry Medvedev on the preparations for the public discussion at a working meeting the previous day.

The President said he thinks the public discussion of the draft law On Education in the Russian Federation will be no less interesting than the recent public discussion on the law On the Police Force.

Mr Medvedev said that the discussions should ultimately produce a balanced and optimum document that will reflect Russians’ views on the kind of education the country needs in the twenty-first century.
