French President Nicolas Sarkozy congratulated Dmitry Medvedev on his victory in Russia's presidential election, Russian news agencies reported Monday.
"The French leader warmly congratulated Medvedev on his convincing victory in the presidential election and pledged to strengthen the strategic partnership between the two countries," RIA and Itar-Tass cited a member of Medvedev's office staff as saying.
In their telephone conversation, Sarkozy invited Medvedev to visit France, the unnamed official said.
Medvedev, 42, won Sunday's presidential election by a landslide victory, becoming the country's youngest ever president-elect.
