Now there will be high level talks between the two leaders, in which other senior colleagues will also be involved. It is believed that these talks will last for several hours.

Biden and Putin’s meeting is expected to stabilize the deteriorating relations between the US and Russia.
Have already met
Biden is going to meet the President of Russia for the first time in a decade. The last time he met Putin was in March 2011 when Russia’s leader was prime minister and Biden was vice president. Then he called Putin a ‘killer’ and an ‘adversary’ (Biden Putin Summit). The summit will have topics such as strategic stability, cyber security, climate change, the coronavirus pandemic and the Arctic (Joe Biden Vladimir Putin Meeting in Geneva). Putin and Biden can also discuss regional crises such as Ukraine, Syria and Libya.
There will also be talk on Iran and Afghanistan
Along with this, he will also discuss Iran’s nuclear program and Afghanistan (Biden Putin Debate). Putin’s foreign affairs adviser Yuri Yushakov said the meeting was important amid tensions in Moscow and Washington, but expectations were not high (Biden Putin Meeting). Yushakov told reporters this week, “The first such meeting is taking place when bilateral relations are in a very bad phase.” Both sides feel that there is a need to initiate dialogue on pending issues.
