U.S. President Joe Biden expects further personal contacts with Russian President Vladimir Putin in the foreseeable future, he said at a White House press briefing.
A reporter asked Biden whether he plans an in-person meeting with Putin in the nearest future and whether he believes that a new Russia-U.S. summit is necessary. "We will be talking at length," TASS cited Biden as saying.
On December 7, the two presidents had a video conference that lasted for about two hours. The main focus was given to the situation around Ukraine; besides, the leaders discussed bilateral relations, cybersecurity, and the Iran nuclear deal.
