MANILA (Reuters) - Russian Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev said on Wednesday that his country can beat terrorism on its own but the best option would be for Moscow and the West to put aside their differences and fight it together.

Speaking at a summit of Asia-Pacific nations in Manila, Medvedev said the West's boycott of Russia looked "weird" in light of last week's militant attacks in Paris and the Oct. 31 bombing of a Russian airliner over Egypt.
