US President signals tougher Russia stance in first Putin call
Wed, 27 January 2021
President Joe Biden on January 26 signalled a tougher US stance on Russia in his first phone call with President Vladimir Putin, raising concerns over human rights and “aggression” against Ukraine, but welcoming cooperation on a new nuclear weapons accord.
The call was initiated by the White House to discuss progress on extending the New START (Strategic Arms Reduction Treaty) deal, which limits the two powers to a maximum of 1,550 deployed nuclear warheads each and expires February 5. An agreement now appears to be close.
