This is the first meeting between the two presidents since their personal meeting in Geneva in June of this year.
The White House said talks between the two leaders kicked off at 10:07 a.m. (local time) in a video meeting that is expected to be extremely important amid rising tensions between Russia and Ukraine.
The United States has previously warned of imposing severe sanctions on Russia if it invades Ukraine after massing tens of thousands of its forces on the latter’s borders.

The White House said Biden would “reaffirm to (President Putin) his support for the sovereignty and territorial integrity of Ukraine.”
