Summary

He also criticised the arrests of hundreds of people who stormed the Capitol building in Washington, DC, on January 6.“He really defended his behaviour and seemed to deflect and redirect away from the criticism from the west on the crackdown on democratic freedoms and protesters and said the US is in no position to criticise,” Halkett said.Biden said later that any comparison between what happened on January 6 and the Black Lives Matter movement was “ridiculous.”“It’s one thing for literally criminals to break through a cordon, go into the Capitol, kill a police officer and be held accountable, than it is for people objecting, marching on the Capitol and saying you are not allowing me to speak freely.”Putin also said Moscow and Washington will begin discussions on possible changes to the New START arms control treaty after it expires in 2026, adding that the two countries are responsible for nuclear strategic stability.Signed in 2010, the New START treaty limits the numbers of strategic nuclear warheads, missiles and bombers that Russia and the United States can deploy.Russian President Vladimir Putin speaks during a news conference after his meeting with US President Joe Biden [Alexander Zemlianichenko/Pool via AP Photo]Putin also said Russia had provided exhaustive information to the US on cyberattacks and that the two sides agreed to start “consultations on cybersecurity”.Biden said the two sides had agreed to further discussions on keeping certain types of critical infrastructure off-limits to cyberattacks.
