Russian President Vladimir Putin and his US counterpart, Joe Biden, may hold an online meeting "in the next few days," Kremlin aide Yuri Ushakov said on Friday. "We have a specific date and time for this video conference," Ushakov told reporters during a briefing. He said that the leaders will continue to discuss the implementation of agreements reached during their previous meeting in Geneva, Switzerland, the situations in Afghanistan, Iran, Libya and Syria, as well as the Ukrainian crisis. Putin and Biden are also expected to cover strategic stability issues, and the Russian side will ask for guarantees against the North Atlantic Treaty Organization"s eastward expansion, Ushakov said. The Russian official said that the oil market, climate change, and the fight against the COVID-19 pandemic could also be on the agenda. Kremlin Spokesman Dmitry Peskov said earlier on Friday that the date for the Putin-Biden meeting has not yet been determined yet, but that Dec. 7 is being considered. — Agencies
