Low Expectations, Days Before Pres. Biden To Meet Putin

The big deliverable of the summit is likely to be on the arms control front, says a Russia expert. But President Biden's list of grievances is long.

Months after calling Vladimir Putin a “killer,” President Joe Biden is now days away from meeting with the Russian leader on his first trip overseas.  "I think the big deliverable of the summit will likely be on the arms control front. We should expect the two leaders to announce the beginning of arms control and strategic stability dialogue going forward." Andrea Kendall-Taylor led Russia policy for the Biden transition team. She says common ground with the former KGB agent is sparse, though the Biden administration hopes it can include addressing climate change and countries like North Korea.
