The possibility of continuing the dialogue between Russia and the United States is the main result of his virtual summit with Joe Biden, according to Vladimir Putin.
"The conversation was very open, detailed, and, I would say, constructive. In any case, I hope that the American side has the same evaluation of the results of our meeting," the Russian head of state said about his meeting with the American president at a press conference following talks with Greek Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis on Wednesday.
"We have an opportunity to continue this dialogue, I think, this is the most important thing," Putin added.
The Russian leader noted that he discussed with Biden the issues of security, NATO’s Eastern expansion, including Ukraine, interaction in cyber sphere, and the Iranian issue. "We talked about a number of other issues, about normalizing diplomatic relations and so on. In general, indeed, we talked for a rather long time, in detail about all these subjects," the Russian president said. He noted that the conversation lasted "over two hours" although he didn’t recall the exact time.
It is a topic for another conversation. We agreed that we would continue this discussion and would do it in a substantive way, would exchange our thoughts on the matter in the future," the Russian leader noted.
"Russia will prepare its suggestions within a few days, and within a week, we will hand them to the US side for consideration," Putin said.
"We agreed that a corresponding body will be set up to deal with this professionally."
"We talked in detail about cybersecurity, ensuring security in this sphere and stated that after our meeting in Geneva we managed to advance rather substantially in this direction," Putin said.
According to him, "constructive dialogue has been established, it is underway, corresponding structures have been created." "an information exchange has been established and it is of a positive nature and yields positive results," the Russian president noted.
