On June 16, Putin and Biden held their first summit in Geneva, which lasted about 4 hours, during which they agreed to return the ambassadors of the two countries after they had been previously summoned.
After meeting Biden at the time, Putin said that there is a glimmer of hope for building mutual trust, and all the issues discussed can be agreed upon.
