Moscow expects U.S. to shape its policy towards Russia within a month

Moscow expects that the United States’ Joe Biden-led administration will make up its mind regarding its policy on the Russian track within a month’s time, Russian Foreign Ministry Spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said.

"I believe that the priorities are to be identified within the current month. Also, they are to begin to implement them," she told the Ekho Moskvy radio station in an interview on Wednesday.

Zakharova recalled that so far there had been only telephone conversations between Russian President Vladimir Putin and Joe Biden and between Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov and U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken.

"The way I see it, not only the team, but the approaches are still in the making. No approaches have been announced to the key issues, at least, those on the international agenda, yet," she added.

The current US president, Joe Biden, was sworn in on January 20. The process of key personnel appointments and approval of Biden’s nominees by the Senate of the U.S. Congress is continuing.
