Former American diplomat Ces Freeman rated the results of the meeting of the presidents of Russia and the United States Vladimir Putin and Joe Bayden in a conversation with RIA Novosti. In his opinion, the American leader has shown that it can restore a worthy tone of the US foreign policy.
At the same time, Bidenu still has to show that it can use the improved atmosphere to promote the interests of the United States, Freman said. “Opened the door to resume negotiations on the control over nuclear weapons and mutual restrictions on abuse in cyberspace, but there is no guarantee that they will bring the result, if they give something at all,” he added.
The main result of the meeting was the restoration of dialogue based on mutual respect and politeness, which has long been naply, emphasized the diplomat. Despite this, the path to progress on the nuclear issue and cybersecurity can be long and heavy.
The meeting of the Russian and American presidents was held on June 16 in Geneva at Ville La Grunge. Leaders communicated for three and a half hours.
