Russia tells US to expect ‘uncomfortable’ signals ahead of summit
Al Jazeera
Warning from Moscow after Washington pledges to press the Kremlin on human rights issues during Putin-Biden meeting.
Russia said on Monday it would send what it described as “uncomfortable” signals to the United States ahead of a summit between the two countries’ leaders next month and announced it was beefing up its western border militarily. The comments came a day after US President Joe Biden said he would press Russian President Vladimir Putin to respect human rights when the two leaders meet in Geneva on June 16. Relations between the two powers are at post-Cold War lows and the meeting next month will be the first between the two leaders since Biden assumed office in January.More Related News
