Three hours. Afterwards the two president s held separate News Conferences but hit some of the same tones and themes, Mutual Respect and optimism tempered by realism. I did what i came to do. The bottom line is i told President Putin we need to have some basic rules of the road that we can all abide by. I made it clear to him that i believe. Consequences of that would be devastating for russia. I dont think hes looking for a cold war with the United States. President putin seemed to be looking for the right category for mr. Biden, among the four u. S. President s he has met with during his 20 years leading russia. Translator he is very balanced, professional man, its obviously clear that he is very experienced and it seems to me that we did speak the same lan language. Certainly doesnt imply that we must look into each others eyes and find a soul or swear eternal friendship. Our chief National Affairs correspondent jeff zeleny is live in geneva. Good morning. Youve now had some time to process the summit after all of the preparation and anticipation. What are your key take a ways from this first meeting between president s biden and putin . Reporter good morning, i mean, as President Biden is back in washington the summit is still reverberating here in europe and that of course was the point of President Bidens first trip abroad, it was to strengthen alliances and to confront the aggression of russia. A couple key tangible take a ways, the ambassadors to both respective countries will return to their posts in washington and moscow. Of course, they were sent home because of the rising tensions. So that is the first real tangible benefit. The second is really having a task force on Cyber Attacks and security. Beyond that it was simply the relationship that was beginning to develop between President Biden and President Putin. Frankly we do not know where that was going to be. President biden says over the next three months, six months, even a year will term whether Vladimir Putin wants to normalize his behavior, wants to essentially rejoin the international community. So the biggest take away of all is that President Biden went ahead, had this summit, even though some of his advisers questioned whether he should so he is has now opened this dialogue and thats what he said he wanted to do. Not to, you know, ease tensions entirely, but to stabilize this very teetering relationship. But their differences on the table as the Washington Post head line states it this morning. Reporter right. The president spent weeks prepping for this summit with putin. Now he has to come home and face the domestic challenges, first being his stalled infrastructure plan. Whats the priority for the president back on home soil . Reporter right. That is going to confront him when he wakes up this morning, there is no doubt about it, because the reality is over the last week talks have continued on the president s jobs plan which has been stalled. The bipartisan negotiations that broke down right before he left for his trip have resumed in a different fashion but the president has asked last evening here before he got on Air Force One if he had been following the latest on infrastructure and he was pretty candid and said he has not. White house Chief Of Staff ron klain has been leading these negotiations. The president will get seeped back into them, but infrastructure, Police Reform those are two of the top items on the agenda but it is a return to fighting a covid19 and really lifting up the economy, but for all the warm reception that President Biden received here on the world stage, in fact, he was flanked by his fellow world leaders, now hes back to the realities of a very deeply divided Partisan Washington where his reception will not be nearly as warm and he of course knows that better than anyone. In that Environment Governing can be hard. Thank you so much, jeff zeleny in geneva. Russian president Vladimir Putin describing his summit with President Biden as, quote, constructive. The russian president said there was no hostility and voiced optimism about the possibility of future results. Translator the meeting had results, it was substantive, it was concrete and it took place in an atmosphere that was geared toward achieving results. But the points of conflict between the two nations are obvious here. President putin denied russian responsibility for an uptick in recent Cyber Attacks. President biden hinted at u. S. Retaliation if they do not stop. Joining us now International Diplomatic editor Nic Robertson is live in london for us. Good morning. Does russia see this meeting as with inn . Reporter yes, putin did play that as a win, played it as a win in the press conference. Look, these Press Conferences are always going to be a play to domestic audiences so when he looked his most uncomfortable which is being pressed on questions about alexei navalny, on questions about ukraine, about the cyber threat he always deflected and spun it as this is a u. S. Problem. This is not us, this is the United States being the country thats accused of the most sort of Cyber Attacks. We always answer their questions, they dont answer ours. Navalny is essentially a stooge of the United States, they want to bring down the kremlin. This was heavy spin by putin. I think the real question here is was biden able to get in the sort of long Strategic Planning and mindset of Vladimir Putin. Remember here that putin is in power until 2036 so he has a long ways to go. He knows that he can outlast he knows that he can outlast President Biden. But biden was saying things particularly about china and we know that china is the big sort of threat that biden sees in the future and he was laying out some lines there for putin on china, you know, russia Shares Thousands of miles long border with china. Russia is being squeezed economically by china. You know, that was when biden was sort of pushed on why does he think his getting around putins, you know putins denials, essentially that he thinks his sort of getting into the long mindset of putin and of course we have no idea, biden said three to six months to get any sense that have at all but thats where we dont know what putin took away and that is maybe where bidens message was landed most strongly. Nic robertson, thanks so much. So a booming economy and rising inflation has the fed moving up its timeline for an Interest Rate hike. The central bank now expects to raise Interest Rates in 2023. Now, it previously predicted Keeping Rates near rock bottom near zero for two years. This is a shift in its outline. Jerome powell downplayed the update saying any Interest Rate hike is still far off. Liftoff is well into the future, the conditions for liftoff are very far from maximum employment, for example. Its a consideration for the future. Prices are higher for most things americans buy, but powell blames Supply Chain Woes a normal byproduct of the economic rebound and says that will correct over time. The prices that are driving that higher inflation are from category being directly affected by the recovery, from the pandemic and the reopening of the economy. He cited lumber surprise prices, they spiked due to bottlenecks but have since come down. Still investors do not like the idea of Interest Rates rising even if its way off in the future in 2023, more expensive Borrowing Costs could eat into corporate profits and u. S. Stocks fell on wednesday although they bounced off their lows. U. S. Futures are down right now. Big picture, the economy is booming and the fed raised its outlook for Economic Growth this year. It now expects 7 Economic Growth this year leaving no need eventually for Emergency Stimulus. That would be the strongest Economic Growth i think since reagan was president. The question always for me is who gets helped and who gets hurt. When Interest Rates are so low its like free money for speculators and so, you know, youve got to tamp that down eventually.

The video just released by the Justice Department its in the case of a 23yearold connecticut man hes charged with assaulting Police Officers, hes pleading not guilty. Congressional reporter Daniella Diaz is live on capitol hill for us. Its the first video to be released since the Court Decision forcing Media Outlets like cnn to seek video case by case. Will we see more . Reporter christine, i think thats what the goal is here. You know, more than a dozen Media Outlets including cnn have been seeking access to video that has been used in these court cases against capitol riot defenders defendants, including Police Body Camera footage, Surveillance Footage and more. You know, this marks the first Public Disclosure after a judge ordered prosecutors release this footage. You know, these four newly released clips are from a case against Patrick Mckay he. This man accused of assaulting police in a tunnel on the way to the capitol building. This was the First Release of video order by a judge since a recent decision to force Media Outlets to seek access to capitol riot evidence case by case. It adds to a few other clips that have become available through Court Proceedings related to the riot. The bottom line here is that we are expected to see more because more judges are reviewing whether to release video in a handful of other capitol riot cases where its been used in court against these defendants. Christine . Officer fanone of one those officers who received a heart attack he went up to capitol hill yesterday and lets just say things didnt go well. What exactly happened . Reporter things didnt go well certainly an understatement, christine. He actually ran into congressman andrew clyde, a conservative republican from georgia who is one of these House Republicans that voted against awarding the congressional gold medal to the Police Officers who defend td the capitol on january 6. He ran into him yesterday and tried to shake his hand but the congressman denied his handshake. Take a listen to what he told our don lemon last night. I saw Congressman Clyde standing outside of an elevator, i was there with officer harry dunn who accompanied me throughout the capitol. Went into the elevator, i told i, you know, greeted Congressman Clyde, i was very cordial, he extended my hand to shake his hand. He just stared at me. I asked him if he was going to shake my hand and he told me that he didnt know who i was. So he introduced myself, i said that i was officer michael fanone, that i was a d. C. Metropolitan Police Officer who fought on january 6 to defend the capitol and as a result i suffered a traumatic brain injury as well as a heart attack after having been tased numerous times at the base of my skull as well as being severely beaten. At that point the congressman turned away from me, pulled out a cellphone, looked like he was attempting to pull up like an Audio Recording app on his phone and, again, like never acknowledged me at any point. As soon as the Elevator Doors opened he ran as quickly as he could like a coward. You know, Congressman Clyde is one of these congressmen that has been down playing what happened on january 6th, the insurrection. You know, he made headlines recently because he actually during a congressional hearing compared what happened on january 6th to a normal tourist visit. Again, as i said earlier, there were 21 House Republicans who did not vote who voted against a bill in the house to award the congressional gold medical to these officers that defended the capitol on january 6th. This is just the latest chapter of many of these conservative republicans who continue to down play what happened on january 6th. I think its important to remind our viewers where Congressman Clyde was on january 6th and what exactly he was doing. With he showed a picture in that clip with don lemon but he was behind barricades because people were trying to get in to the chamber where he was, right . Reporter absolutely. It was a photo that we all remember clearly that came out after he compared what happened on january 6th to a normal tourist visit which it certainly was not that. Apparently he barricades himself behind big pieces of heavy furniture when the tourist right side in the capitol. Thank you so much. Nice to see you. So while some lawmakers in washington are playing the denial game about the big l
