WASHINGTON – President Joe Biden and Russian President Vladimir Putin concluded their first in-person summit in Geneva on Wednesday, with both leaders saying the meeting had been constructive but with divisions between the two countries clearly on display.The meeting, which took place at an 18th century villa, lasted three hours and gave the two leaders a chance to discuss a range of issues including cyberattacks, Moscow's crackdown on supporters of democracy and Russian interference in U.S. elections."I told President Putin that we need to have some basic rules of the road that we can all abide by," Biden told reporters in a solo news conference after the meeting.Biden said he emphasized areas where "there's a mutual interest for us to cooperate for our people – the Russian and American people – but also for the benefit of the world."Putin, speaking through an interpreter, called the meeting "a fundamental one" and said that while the countries have "divergent" positions on some issues, both sides were determined to "understand each other and try and converge our positions."Some key takeaways from the meeting:The White House tried to downplay expectations for the summit before arriving in Geneva, insisting that it didn’t expect any significant results to come out of the meeting.None did.Perhaps the most concrete result was an agreement by the two leaders that the U.S. and Russian ambassadors should return to their respective posts in Moscow and Washington.
