“#Biden won’t nix Putin summit over meat company hack: White House<\/strong>”<\/p>\n

\n

President Biden won\u2019t scrap his summit this month with Russian President Vladimir Putin in response to suspected Russian cybercriminals disrupting work at a major US meat producer, the White House says.<\/p>\n

JBS Foods, the world\u2019s largest meat supplier, was crippled by a cyberattack just weeks after hackers suspected of residing in Russia attacked the Colonial Pipeline, causing US gas prices to surge as stations across the Southeast ran dry.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe do not regard, as you can imagine, this meeting with the Russian president as a reward, right? We regard it as a vital part of defending America\u2019s interests. President Biden is meeting with Vladimir Putin because of our country\u2019s differences, not in spite of them,\u201d White House deputy press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said Tuesday.<\/p>\n

JBS controls an estimated 20 percent of the US slaughtering capacity for cattle and pigs, meaning the hack could result in higher prices for US consumers as worker shifts are canceled.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere\u2019s a lot we have to work through. President Biden is the most effective communicator of American values and priorities, and hearing directly from President Putin is the most effective way to understand Russian plans and intents,\u201d Jean-Pierre said during a gaggle aboard Air Force One during a flight to Tulsa, Okla.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere is no substitute \u2014 right? \u2014 for leader-to-leader engagement, particularly for complex relationships. So it is important for President Biden to sit down with President Putin face to face to be clear about where we are, to understand where he is, to try to manage differences and to identify areas where we can make progress.\u201d<\/p>\n

The summit meeting on June 16 in Geneva, Switzerland, comes shortly after the Biden administration last month decided to waive sanctions against the Nord Stream 2 gas pipeline, which the Trump administration feared would make US allies including Germany economically dependent on Russia.<\/p>\n

Biden in April\u00a0offered\u00a0Putin\u00a0the summit\u00a0during a call in which he informed him of US plans to expel diplomats\u00a0and apply new sanctions\u00a0as punishment for alleged Russian meddling in the 2020 election and the SolarWinds hack that impacted US government systems. Russia reciprocated.<\/p>\n

Biden\u2019s\u00a0summit\u00a0with the former KGB agent carries significant political risk if he appears weak against the authoritarian leader. After a 2018\u00a0summit\u00a0with\u00a0Putin, President Donald Trump was forced into damage control due to criticism of his remarks seeming to accept\u00a0Putin\u2019s denial of hacking Democrats in 2016. Trump said\u00a0he\u00a0misspoke.<\/p>\n

Biden already has lightened his approach toward Putin on several occasions.<\/p>\n

As a presidential candidate,\u00a0Biden\u00a0repeatedly attacked Trump for not punishing\u00a0Putin\u00a0over unconfirmed intelligence that Russia paid bounties to the Taliban to kill\u00a0US\u00a0troops in Afghanistan. But\u00a0Biden\u00a0has been quiet on the issue since\u00a0US\u00a0spy agencies\u00a0concluded in\u00a0April\u00a0they don\u2019t have high confidence in the claim.<\/p>\n

And\u00a0Biden\u00a0appeared to\u00a0blink\u00a0in\u00a0April\u00a0on a decision to send warships to the Black Sea in response to a\u00a0Russian\u00a0troop buildup on the borders of Ukraine. The Pentagon ordered a\u00a0U-turn\u00a0by two\u00a0US\u00a0destroyers.<\/p>\n

The\u00a0summit\u00a0will follow\u00a0Putin\u2019s ally, Belarus strongman Alexander Lukashenko,\u00a0forcing down a commercial passenger jet\u00a0to detain a dissident journalist. But the Putin administration indicated this week it will seek to turn the tables on Biden if he brings up human rights issues, saying that Russia is tracking the \u201cpersecution\u201d of Trump supporters who participated in the Jan. 6 Capitol riot.\n <\/p><\/div>\n
