This is VOA News. Via remote, I'm Marissa Melton. U.S. President Joe Biden has promised that the United States will stand with its European allies against Russia. This comes ahead of the president's first face-to-face meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin. President Biden is set to leave Wednesday for Europe where he will attend summits of both G7 and NATO as well as hold a meeting with Putin in Geneva on June 16th. The summit comes amid the biggest crisis in ties between the two countries in years. There are tensions over hacking1 allegations, human rights and claims of election meddling2, and in an op-ed for The Washington Post published on Saturday, Biden promised to shore up Washington's democratic alliances in the face of multiple crises and mounting threats from Moscow. Since taking office in January, Biden has ramped3 up pressure on the Kremlin. His comments likening Putin to a "killer4" were met with fierce criticism in Moscow. But both leaders have expressed hopes that relations can improve. Putin said Friday he expects a "positive" result from the talks.
