Russian President Vladimir Putin attends a meeting with Chief of the Russian Armed Forces' General Staff Valery Gerasimov, via a video conference call at the Novo-Ogaryovo state residence, outside Moscow, Russia, on Oct 7, 2020. MOSCOW: Russian President Vladimir Putin said on Wednesday he had noted what he called"sharp anti-Russian rhetoric" from US Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden, but that he had been encouraged by Biden's comments on arms control.
He said that a bipartisan US consensus on the need to restrain Russia had held back the possibility of that happening, but that a lot had nonetheless been done and that bilateral trade had grown despite US sanctions and the pandemic. But he added that Biden had made what he regarded as encouraging statements on New START, the last major nuclear arms pact between Russia and the United States, which is due to expire in February.Moscow and Washington have so far been unable to agree a new treaty or an extension, though Trump's envoy for arms control said on Tuesday that"important progress" had been made at bilateral talks.
