“#Biden and Putin to meet at Switzerland summit in June<\/strong>”<\/p>\n

\n

President Biden and Russian President Vladimir Putin will meet next month in Geneva, Switzerland, the White House confirmed Tuesday.<\/p>\n

Biden and Putin will hold talks on June 16 \u2014 after Biden makes stops in England for the annual G7 summit and in Belgium for a NATO conference.<\/p>\n

White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki said, \u201cThe leaders will discuss the full range of pressing issues, as we seek to restore predictability and stability to the U.S.-Russia relationship.\u201d<\/p>\n

The meeting during Biden\u2019s first trip<\/a> abroad as president follows a rocky period for US-Russia relations punctuated by the hack this month of the Colonial Pipeline by cybercriminals suspected of residing in Russia. The hack caused gas stations to run dry throughout the Southeastern US.<\/p>\n

Biden in April\u00a0offered\u00a0Putin\u00a0a summer summit\u00a0during a phone call in which he informed him of US plans to expel diplomats\u00a0and app<\/a>ly new sanctions\u00a0as punishment for the SolarWinds hack and alleged Russian meddling in the 2020 election.<\/p>\n

Biden\u2019s summit with the former KGB agent carries significant political risk for him. If there are public remarks, he risks looking overly accommodating of the Russian strongman or embarrassing himself with gaffes.<\/p>\n

As a presidential candidate last year, Biden repeatedly attacked then-President Donald Trump for not punishing Putin over unconfirmed intelligence that Russia paid bounties to the Taliban to kill US troops in Afghanistan. But Biden has been quiet on the issue since US spy agencies concluded in April they don\u2019t have high confidence in the claim.<\/p>\n

And Biden\u00a0appeared to\u00a0blink\u00a0in April on a decision to send warships to the Black Sea in response to a Russian troop buildup on the borders of Ukraine. The Pentagon ordered a\u00a0U-turn\u00a0by two US destroyers following Russian warnings.<\/p>\n

Biden and\u00a0Putin also traded personal insults this year \u2014 adding to potential headlines out of the summit.<\/p>\n

Biden said in an ABC News interview in March that he regarded\u00a0Putin\u00a0as a \u201ckiller\u201d and claimed that he once told the Russian leader to his face that, \u201cI don\u2019t think you have a soul.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI said [to\u00a0Putin], \u2018I looked through your eyes, and I don\u2019t think you have a soul\u2019,\u201d\u00a0Biden told ABC News.\u00a0Putin\u00a0allegedly looked back and replied, \u201cWe understand each other.\u201d<\/p>\n

Putin\u00a0responded to Biden\u2019s \u201ckiller\u201d jab\u00a0by saying, \u201cit takes one to know one,\u201d before inviting Biden to a live streamed debate.<\/p>\n

The summit will closely follow Putin\u2019s ally, Belarus President Alexander Lukashenko, forcing down a commercial passenger jet to detain a dissident journalist. The Obama-Biden administration similarly forced down a jet over Europe in 2013 that was carrying Bolivian President Evo Morales in an unsuccessful attempt to imprison mass surveillance whistleblower Edward Snowden.\n <\/p><\/div>\n
