Russian President Vladimir Putin will bring a long laundry list of issues to discuss at his first summit with U.S. leader Joe Biden in Geneva on Wednesday even as the Kremlin says there’s little chance for a breakthrough in relations.
The official agenda touches on bilateral relations, cybercrime, climate change and the Arctic, economic cooperation and regional security issues from around the globe, as well as issues that haven’t been agreed on ahead of time, Kremlin foreign policy aide Yuri Ushakov told reporters in Moscow.
