Di Paola said in turn that it was a great honor for him to lay a wreath to the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier.
Beginning the talks at the Defense Ministry headquarters in Moscow, Di Paola said with a smile: "I have been in this room so many times that I feel at home here."

MOSCOW, July 23 (Itar-Tass) -- Chairman of the NATO Military Committee Admiral Giampaolo di Paola will discuss military cooperation with Russia’s Chief-of-Staff of the Armed Forces Nikolai Makarov on Friday.
Di Paola told Tass in Brussels the first visit to Moscow of a high-ranking military official of the alliance was a result of “political reset” in relations following the crisis caused by the war in Georgia in 2008.
“Political reset does not mean that we have no contradictions, but it testifies that we are resolute to restore and strengthen mutual trust,” di Paola said.
The Russian defense ministry said “the parties plan to sum up intermediary results of Russia-NATO interaction in 2010 and consider future prospects. Priority attention will be paid to the fight against sea piracy, rear logistics, and interaction in the settlement in Afghanistan.”
