in fact it's president biden apparently. there's a shot of air force one as he's headed out to the geneva airport to head back to the united states. ambassador, let me ask you about this because this to me was sort of the big take away in the, as you described it, talks about talks. president biden said he thinks there is a genuine prospect for better relations between the two countries without giving up a single thing. there were no threats, just simple assertions and letting who didn't know where i stood and what we could accomplish. and if there were violations of american sovereignty, what would we do? what did you make of what he said. >> we learned something very important about president biden again today. it says basically an extension of personal relationships between the two principles and i believe the national interest should govern the geopolitics and govern how we behave, it's important to have cordial relationships and that it ameliorates some of the sharp edges. but that doesn't seem to be what president bide

let's hearjoe biden. their feet. there is the president. let's hearjoe biden.— let's hearjoe biden. there is no roblem let's hearjoe biden. there is no problem getting _ let's hearjoe biden. there is no problem getting to _ let's hearjoe biden. there is no problem getting to the - let's hearjoe biden. there is no problem getting to the doors, i let's hearjoe biden. there is no l problem getting to the doors, was there? anyway, hello, everyone. well, i'mjust there? anyway, hello, everyone. well, i'm just finishing the last meeting of this week's long trip. the us russian summit. i know there are a lot of hype around this meeting, but it's pretty straightforward to me, the meeting. one, there's no substitute, as many of you know, forface—to—face dialogue between leaders. president putin and i had a shared responsibility to manage the relationship between two powerful and proud countries. a relationship that has to be stable and predictable, and it should be able to cooperate where it's in our mutual interest. and where we have differences, i want president putin to understand why

i said hunter biden because joe biden's foreign policy, the template is clearly laid out in joe biden -- hunter biden's laptop. this is a policy of money laundering, corruption, all proven cases. he has taken our foreign policy back to the obama era, pay for play. that is a concern for every american. this president's son is under an active criminal investigation. host: ron in missouri, democratic caller. you are next. caller: let me. the lady earlier. these people, the vitriol these people come with. let me say this. at least mr. biden, our president, does not comport himself like some frat boy. if the man drink, it would have been something. the way trump comported himself in front of putin in helsinki -- i do not think we have to worry about that. i am with the lady earlier. the vitriol they display toward this man -- i watch fox news occasionally. just to see the vitriol these people come with. they are all angry people. it comes from the lie from the orange, lion coward. we have got to come together, people. please stop letting the republicans call in. host: rick in california si

a decade ago it was vice president biden meeting vladimir putin with biden telling putin basically he had no soul. >> reporter: over four decades in politics, joe biden has plenty of experience in foreign policy. he has met with at least two russian presidents and three soviet leaders, and today he will sit down again with vladimir putin. >> i have met with him. he's bright. he's tough. and i have found that he is as they say when i used to play ball, a worthy adversary. >> reporter: at the then meeting he told the russian leader, i don't think you have a soul. biden who called putin a kgb thug took it one step further earlier this year. >> you know vladimir putin. do you think he's a killer? >> mm-hmm. i do. >> reporter: this after he had his first phone call with president putin. >> it made it clear to vladimir putin different from my predecessor that the day of the united states rolling over in today's acts by russia are over. >> reporter: by april the president ordered sanction on russia in response to cyber attacks and election attacks with an additional warning. >> it's in the i

vladimir putin going first, then president biden. very different from the last meeting between vladimir putin and a u.s. president. that one was very different. >> we have seen jockeying this morning with members of the press, we have seen the white house looking to clarify a comment that was made silently, a head nod community. the pool reporter in the room says president biden looked at her and nodded yes. the white house quick to say he was not answering that question, but saying that he was just answering another question. second session with translation happening, more people in the room, dpb, right? >> yeah, there is several people in the room now. we don't see lloyd austin, our defense secretary in there, but they want to talk arms control, cyberas well. they have antonio who was a negotiator, and also most like i will be the kremlin to extend that treaty, but what are the terms. the fact, also now, cyber which is harder to verify. you heard president biden saying verify but trust, a flip of the famous ronald reagan saying. bu

if biden does not succeed, then what? >> evan, president biden has been preparing intensively just ahead of his face to face meeting with putin here in geneva. does that line up with how he's approached other high stakes moments throughout his career? >> yeah. he believes intensively in the power of personal interaction, whether it's diplomacy or domestic politics. he will mark up his individual notes. he'll ride his speech writers hard to try to make sure he's got every detail secure. he might like to put his counter party off balance a bit. he'll challenge them on something that has been asserted. he often will say don't try to lie to me if i know how to do it myself. already in advance we hear the makings of what the russians might try to do here. the foreign minister said if the united states tries to challenge them on the subject of democracy or human rights, they may raise the insurrection at the capital. joe biden will say that's the man i beat. ultimately he's trying to build a relationship. this is the first meet

i think president biden is correct. he came in here and said -- he told vladimir putin how he feels. he put some of the examples of what could happen if there was attack on the oil pipeline or the u.s. used cyber. they know who to communicate with. those are things key moving forward. on some of the topics, there was incremental progress that was achieved. you have the am bbassadors comi back. i do think that more than at any time in at least recent times that i have been in moscow, there's some movement possibly in the prisoner exchange issue. i think both leaders did say that they have a positive outlook on that. they think a deal could be made on that. >> there's consultations now on the cyber warfare issue, which is so important. phil, president biden said, i'm quoting, he said, i did what i came to do. how so? >> i think fred hits at a key point here from the u.s. side as well. president biden, face to face interactions are extremely important to him. we have seen it on capitol hill with his former colleagues in th

rahm, joe biden has called vladimir putin a worthy adversary. how did biden do today? >> well, first of all, i think you have to put the trip within the context of the whole week. and i think it was a very good week for the president. and it made americans feel good about themselves. domestically it was very good. i think our relationships, it was very good. he got nato to endorse a series of things that he had been pushing, showing again that america can lead the coalition on both russia, china, and other issues. i think sitting with putin, i think the biggest thing i would say today that was very important is he -- i'm surprised nobody followed up on this. here are the 16 things that if you touch these sectors in a cyber attack, you will have a response. he drew red lines around a cyber attack. that had never really been done yet by a president of the united states. >> sarah, certainly muscular words from the president today. who do you think won, or can each side claim progress? >> vladimir putin wants to be considered an equal of the united states and china. so get

notably, biden is the third u.s. president who will be in office with russia occupying parts of ukraine and annexing part of it. multiple administrations have not yet figured out how to solve that problem. former defense secretary chuck hagel, thanks to you. >> thanks, jim. >>> we're live in gengeneva. that's villa la grange where biden and putin and their a advisers are meeting as we speak. please stay with us. our live coverage continues next. this is the sound of change. the sound of a thousand sighs of relief. and the sound of a company watching out for you. this is the sound of low cash mode from pnc bank, giving you multiple options and at least 24 hours to help you avoid an overdraft fee. because we believe how you handle overdrafts should be in your control, not just your bank's. low cash mode on virtual wallet from pnc bank. one way we're making a difference. incomparable design makes it beautiful. state of the art technology makes it brilliant. the visionary lexus nx. lease the 2021 nx 300 for $359 a month

worry is biden fully in control? i think he has gotten more buy in certainly than critics thought was possible. china is a perfect issue. some of our european allies are wary of joining the u.s. in too vocal, too aggressive a stance toward china. germany sells an enormous amount of exports to china. yet, the germans and other nato partners were with the u.s. in the strong communique. today's meeting with president erdogan is the most delicate yet. erdogan has been pushing the envelope. he has been playing off the u.s. against russia. he has been bought russian anti-aircraft defenses at the same time that he wanted to get u.s. fighter jets. a lot of nato allies were saying this is incompatible with them in nato. he is bending back towards biden. they exchanged sharp messages. the turks called biden arrogant, hypocritical, before the election. these two have a lot of history. if they today have a meeting in which erdogan seems to be moving toward u.s. positions on the missiles, on other key issues, at helene cooper sai

biden doj could find ways around it. so there's concerns that, and monday there is a meeting scheduled between attorney general merrick garland and representatives of cnn and "new york times" and "the washington post," in an attempt to discuss this matter and try to bring tension down. listen, i've been talk to go media rights lawyers, advocacy groups, this is something that's been of deep concern in the last few days before we even knew there actually was a gag order involving cnn. >> but, i mean, evan, as you were saying, biden took office in january. has the biden department of justice moved with enough alacrity to resolve this? >> this has been slow. the only reason we're talking about this today, cnn went to a june and asked the judge to lift the gag order that prevented the cnn lawyer to even tell more people than just a very limited number of people. it's been a very slow process. brian is right, you know, this is a policy that's applying only to merrick garland's justice department. once he leaves, we don't know

joe biden, with asked about that. he says, he doesn't believe the time is right for ukraine to be a part of nato. but it's not because of security that he's concerned about. the explanation that he gave was that the issue was corruption and that it needs to be cleaned up. so he already was signaling in advance with the position he would take . now whether that was to alleviate some of the fears of vladimir putin going into this meeting, or whether this is truly the position that the united states has decided to take. it's, it's very clear that was a deliberate message that was being sent in advance of these meetings. that one more thing we should know. all of this is that the relationship is somewhat frosty . as we look at these pictures of, i'm not sure who we're seeing getting out of that motorcade perhaps you could help me. well yeah, i could say i can be we do believe that the american medicaid has actually arrived just waiting, i think for some parts of the protocol to take place for the swiss host to welcome the

biden agreed with you, you say. so you say that there was a certain sort of -- there was a calm in these negotiations but where are the red lines? there are red lines everywhere. which red lines would you like to make sure that we maintain? i think that everybody understands what our american partners are talking about, and they understand what we're talking about in this respect, particularly when we talk about red lines. i have to be absolutely frank here, we have to very carefully and in detail describe those red lines but baring in mind the fact that we talked about cyber security strategic security and so on. i think that as a result of that, and particularly in terms of joint work in the optic, everything should be, you know, subject to eventual agreement. abc news. american colleagues. >> mr. president, thank you so much for taking my question. president biden said he would respond if cyber attacks from russia do not stop. i'm curious, what did he tell you? did he make any threats? and a quick follow-up, if i

was it biden, or was it putin? so, what is the reaction in russia in particular, and for putin domestically, was it successful? >> domestically, yes, i believe it was successful in that it's being projected as a successful summit, and actually, the russian state media propaganda machine is also kind of -- they're not kind of pressing that putin, won, of course putin was wonderful, but the message is that this was a success, a glimmer of hope, so both sides actually, biden and putin are projecting success. the problem, of course, is that there was no real success practically, no real progress, or nothing was achieved. yes, there will be working groups in cybersecurity and nuclear arms, which will be trying to work up agreements, and that would take years, at best, even if they any time appear just simply to resolve the problem of the diplomatic missions that are right now handicapped by the tit for tat expulsions. and not issuing visas even, that's a big problem. again, there's going to be another working group betw

president biden saying thank you. he said i repeat what i said outside, which is he hopes for progress here too. something productive to come out of this meeting. we should mention to president biden's right that was secretary of state antony blinken who you spoke with days ago. he said he's keeping expectations low going into this, but he said they'll know seas seas as soon as the summit is over what's come out. >> they did. blinken talked about sanctions as well. he said he thought the sanctions have worked in the past. obviously that's something vladimir putin wants to get rid of. look at the seen, david, casually taking questions. both men look so relaxed and it really is a long photo opportunity. they usually get the press out of there quickly. >> it's a lesson in diplomacy for us all between two adversaries in the months leading up this were asked questions that made global headlines. here they are sitting face-to-face. we heard mary bruce address this earlier. some have questioned whether or not president biden

joe biden will do the same thing. they go into this meeting with vladimir putin denying the hacking, denying that russia -- >> calling it nonsense. >> calling it nonsense. that starting point, it's sort of gentlemen start your engines. they're going to go at it with each other. then they will try, we open, to find some sort of common common ground. but it is why these meetings are important. ant. i know president trump got a lot of heat forever going to see kim jong-un. that never worked out. they really didn't get anywhere, although they did get some hostages released. the initial meetings, you have to be face-to-face. >> that's where you see the difference between the public stance, as you mentioned, nonsense saying these hackers are not in russia. what are you talking about essentially has been putin's stance. the discussion inside that room will be crucial. >> inside that room. i was in kenny bunk port when george bush met with vladimir putin. they had a rapport going. again, it kind of fell apart because of the i

. >> president biden: we are not seeking conflict. >> president biden of course is radically different from trump because president biden is a career man. he spent virtually his entire adulthood and politics. >> president biden doesn't want to give too much away publicly. >> what's your message to putin? >> i will tell you after i deliver it. >> it doesn't sound as though that meeting will be like this one with lots of joking and elbow bumping. the u.s. and russia are already outlining major issues with one another they want to discuss and there will not be a joint press conference afterwards. the white house tells us the president is going to come out and explain how he think it went with putin solo. chris. >> chris: peter doocy traveling with the president in england. peter, thanks for that. and joining us now, the secretary of state, antony blinken. mr. secretary, welcome back to "fox news sunday." >> secretary blinken: thanks, chris, it's great to be with you. >> chris: this trip is building up to i guess the climax, the meeting with russian president putin in geneva on wednesday.

biden knows that stuff. the tactical part would be vl interesting. >> he knows coming to this he's going to get a much harder line. there wasn't even any line from former president trooump. so he's going to get a harder line from joe biden, but i know you think that putin is in the driver's cease actually here. explain why. >> yep. a divided america is good for vladimir putin. he tried to insert cyber attacks during the elections. america, including president biden have different interests including china. if you're vladimir putin in this summit, you're going to say i've got to get on the world stage with the biggest player on the planet along with the chinese, that is, president biden. already by having the meeting i think putin wins. i close by saying what's biden going to do about it? how is he going to confront russia? i don't see it happening. sanctions are already tough and putin get as what he wants. >> we're told president biden is en route. he should be arriving very shortly at the villa la grange w

watch joe biden. watch this. >> >> another area we spent a great deal of time on was cyber and cyber security. i talked about the proposition that certain critical infrastructure should be off limits to attack, period. by cyber or any other means. i gave them a list, if i'm not mistaken, i don't have it in front of me, 16 specific entities, 16 defined as critical infrastructure under u.s. policy. from the energy sector to our water systems. so we agreed to task experts, both our countries, to work on specific understandings about what's off limits and the follow-up on specific cases that originate in other countries. either of our countries. maria: i mean, are you serious? is this a joke? joe biden gave vladimir putin a list of 16 critical infrastructure and he said these are off limits for you to hack? you've got to explain this one to me. >> well, i don't think anyone can. i mean, it's bizarre. it's absurd. to hand him that kind of list is essentially to hand him a target list, to give your adversar

biden: i know this. my covid-19 team of 25 folks, first thing we did was make sure that we had somebody it would handle leasehold question of equity. there's nothing but that. i cannot tell you how much i appreciate you rated i really minute rated. >> or thankful for your leadership because you guys have covenants to the position we are's work very thankful and we want to meet with community members who are going vaccinated today printed. biden: my grandmother's house in scranton.

and biden administrations, for the u.s. to come back and be a world leader we need to have engagement. isolating rivals what we saw under trump is not answer effective way to engage and we see that the u.s. is losing the gio political battle. we need to start engageing with these leaders and start having dialogue and stop speaking to our allies and also our rivals like putin and china. manny: you could say that the world has stopped looking to america for leadership on foreign policy and that is maybe biden's opportunity. you would say that this is an opportunity for america and russia to lay down their red lines, define the biggest red line for biden going into this and putin. >> so i think for biden it is really about reemphasizing what he believes are u.s. liberal values. he is going to -- ukraine is very close to his heart. he will reaffirm that russia should not overly interfere in the you crained then again, we're going to have putin with his own familiar list of grievances from nato expansion and anterussian action b

biden is not that kind of president. bide in what was the tradition -- there is president biden, in fact, emerging from air force one, walking down the steps here, 24 hours before he will meet face-to-face with the russian president vladimir putin, he is greeted today by the president of a u.s. ally, the swiss confederation, that is the president there. they will have is bilateral meeting themselves in about an hour's time. there are issues to discuss between the u.s. and switzerland, not quite on the scale of the u.s. and government, but the corporate tax rates with g-7 leaders is one very important topic of discussion for the two. this is president biden's first trip overseas as commander in chief, consequential at each stop so far. meeting at the g-7 alliance to establish his interest in reinvigorating it, or at least reestablishing american commitment to it, and then with nato, reestablishing the commitment to nato. a marked turn from trump's go it alone approach to world affairs. and biden has said, to confront a ru

. >> plus president biden on the the world stage. he said america has turned a page. >> we're committed to leading this change. the united states is back. >> it is fantastic. he's a breathe of fresh air. >> and new hope for a bipartisan deal on infrastructure. but some democrats say biden should go it alone. >> it is time to move forward. republicans have held us up long enough. >> "inside politics," the biggest stories sourced by the best reporters now. >>> welcome to "inside politics" sunday, i'm abby phillip. the days of donald trump's america first foreign policy are over. that is the message president joe biden want the world to hear as he travels on his first foreign trip as president. he's announcing that the u.s. will buy and donate 500 million doses of pfizer's covid vaccine. >> america will be the arsenal of vaccines in our fight against global covid-19. just as america was the arsenal of democracy during world war ii. our vaccine donations don't include pressure for favors or potential concessions. we're doing this to save

they are not going to buy biden's stuff. when i went to meet with nato, they are not going to be happy, they will all be against biden, meeting with putin. is there a single solitary syllable? what if -- what would happen if i said it is going to be really difficult and hard. i don't see anyone changing it. the same thing with the eu. the eu will not like how biden is operating. >> but this is vitamin putin. president biden: sure it is but i don't compare him to let me put in by the french president said he will never go for working with nato. guess what, -- look, guys. i am going to drive you all crazy. i know you want me to always put a negative thrust on things, particularly in public but i don't have to trust somebody. we don't have to trust somebody to get started. there is self interest. i don't trust -- i have to get on the plane. >> it is your plan, you can go when you want -- your plane, you can go when you want. president biden: i don't see any benefit ever to begin negotiation -- these are the brightest people in

biden et al. campaign rested on the notion that he would persuade allies to support him on china and he is going to brussels for a nato summit and it is not clear whether countering china is even on the agenda? how is that even possible. like kamala not going to the border. how is that possible. house biden's issue not possible when doctor jill biden insisted that her husband had been cramming nonstop for his first big trip? >> i think is so well prepared. he's been studying for weeks, working up to today. he knows most of the leaders that will be here. joe loves foreign-policy. we are bringing love from america, this is a global conference and we are trying to bring unity across the globe. >> unity? that jacket jill wars something my 16-year-old might get that target but i don't think it is going to impress the chinese some now? you know what xi jinping and the ccp love? power and domination. if trump and won the election he would have had enormous economic leverage against the eu and wouldn't ha

biden, should we put it like. that >> the queen has had, of course, many memorable meetings with american presidents. she dance with president gerald ford. she truly traded jokes with president george bush. and of course trump, famously full pod when he walked in front of the queen. all part of her extraordinary window and history over nearly a century. can you help us put this period in some historic perspective? i guess is the queen elizabeth, president biden boris johnson, covid brexit era. >> yes, that's right. this is very much a post brexit era. it's one where britain wants to reject project a positive image for the world about our opportunities in the rest of the world. and how better to do that and have her majesty, the queen, who as you mention, has known every president since harry truman. as our soft power ambassador to the world. >> andrew roberts, it's great to see you. it's going to be an interesting afternoon to watch. thanks so much. we appreciate it. coming up, get the covid vaccine or don't come

president biden needs to be prepared for both of those. >> president biden wants to find common ground on something. does putin need common ground does he need this relationship to get better >> no, he doesn't. that's why he is feeling very smug about this meeting. >> that's a major thing. >> for him, he's already achieved what he wants he doesn't need concrete outcomes with us in fact, he needs us as an enemy, not as a cooperative partner, so i think for him the stakes are pretty low. >> and for more perspective, let me bring in andrea mitchell who has other american/russi summits. what do you think president biden will be touting tomorrow as the big accomplishment >> they hope they can say they have an agreement for team to work on extending a key nuclear arms treaty that expires in five years in the '80s they were working on missiles and warheads now new destructive technologies, cyber. it's more complicated. as president biden said last night, turning ronald reagan's famous phrase, with vladimir putin you have to verify first and then trust. another possible outcome would be for ru

this wasn't a session for biden to come over here and lash out -- for biden to come over and lash out at putin over all the things he's done wrong. they wanted to find common ground. we're seeing secret service around here. we're not seeing the president yet. we're waiting on him, but we don't expect to see him until after putin has given that press conference. >> we are just told, kaitlan and i'll share with you and our viewers around the world, a white house official told the white house press pool that the first session between the two presidents went 93 minutes. they then took a 45-minute break and the second session lasted for 65 minutes. at 5:05 p.m. local time, it's 5:41 local time. at 5:05 it broke up. the summit has ended. the two leaders have gone their respective ways. we're waiting for the two news conferences to start. matthew chance is where the putin news conference will take place. set the scene over there. i understand you're in a tent over there, getting ready to start asking questions once putin shows up. >> reporter: that's right. we're in a tent. we can't get our

biden and u.s. administration has been really supportive, raising its voice against this unlawful incarceration. navalny really has become the most prominent political prisoner now globally. so i hope there is some movement on this issue as a result of this summit. >> as we've noted, your organization, alexei navalny's organizations have been key clard extremist organizations in the russian federation making it almost impossible -- pretty much impossible to do anything there. how are you going to try to continue your work or try to make a difference especially in the run up to the parliamentary elections that are coming up in russian? >> it's not the first instance of pressure on our organization, on our activists. we have always regrouped, we evolved and we found ways to fight this regime. a lot of opportunities take place online and they will continue in particular the system of tactical voting that we employed in previous elections in russia will now be used during the parliamentary elections in

biden's meeting with vladimir putin. in a new interview with nbc news, putin laughed when he was asked if he was a killer by the correspondent who he was speaking with, keir simmons, and also when asked, though, about the ransomware attacks, the u.s. intelligence has said originated out of russia, wthat we've seen more and more of. i want to play what putin said. >> mr. president, are you waging a cyber war against america? >> translator: where is the evidence? where is proof? it's becoming farcical. we know it well. we have been accused of all kinds of things, election interference, cyberattacks, and so on and so forth, and not once, not one time did they bother to produce any kind of evidence or proof. just founded accusations. >> david, if this is how putin is responding to biden when they're face to face, can biden get anywhere in terms of making quote/unquote progress with russia? >> it's going to be hard. if you think about the past 70 years of meetings, first with soviet leaders and then with russian leaders, kate

biden reaching out for a handshake. the two presidents never meeting alone. secretary of state blinken and the russian foreign minister there too. "i hope that our meeting will be productive," putin says >> thank you like i said outside, i think it's always better to meet people >> reporter: chaotic moments as russian media and russian security pushed and shoved the american press both leaders looking on president biden had said he would confront the russian leader on issues like election interference, putin's crackdown on critics, and recent ransomware attacks on america's food and gas supply that the u.s. blames on russian hackers. in an unusual move president biden not holding a joint press conference with putin afterwards instead, in dueling appearances both sides offering sometimes differing views of how it went. on cyberattacks, president biden saying he gave putin a list of critical infrastructure that he wants off limits along with this sharp message. >> i pointed out to him, we have significant cyber capability and if in fact they violate these basic

here is what putin knows about biden. he knows biden is weak. putin will look to see if biden is actually coherent. can he put sentences together? >> gillian: peter doocy is live in brussels. are things getting real for biden today? >> so far, gillian in the last few hours since the president has been on the ground at nato headquarters, he has been trying to put putin and russia at the top of the to-do list. >> we have russia that is not acting in a way that is consistent with what we had hoped. as well as china. >> in addition to emphasizing defense and deterrence, nato trying to figure out how to confront climate change and cyber hacking which has been on the u.s. gas and meets a place based on hackers and russia. vladimir putin claims he is open to a cyber criminals swap. >> are you open to that kind of thing for vladimir putin? >> i'm open if crimes against russia that, in fact, people at times have been orbit in the united states. i'm committed to hold them accountable. and i heard that and i was told as i was flying here. that is potential

room, and here is what biden or putin knows about biden. he knows that biden is weak. putin is probably going to be looking to see whether or not biden is actually coherent. can he put sentences together. he knows that biden already collapsed after the trump adminitration stopped the nord stream ii pipeline from going from russia into germany. likely what's going to happen is putin, i don't know if they talk about that if biden tries to get credit for it but biden let putin have the pipeline and of course the media here in this country can completely ignore it but putin knows and he's going to try to push biden around to see if he can get anything else out of biden imagine looking at libya where there's a lot of oil on the line and the russians are heavily involved in libya. that could be something that putin would want. my guess is that biden will give him the oil. >> you know, derivative i remember way back when, when mitt romney was debating president obama and mitt romney cited russia as the greatest threat to the country and i think pr

joe biden says the tone is positive. we will speak to francois in a just a few minutes france says adieu to face masks and prepares to bid farewell two months of nighttime curfew's in the battle against covid-19 and

that is what we have joe biden. thank god for c-span2 let people like me speak out against things going on across america. america is great and god has got us. host: all right, billy in texas. look at how members of congress are reacting. jody arlington saying "russia is a threat in our national security yet biden gave putin the green light to supply europe with russian gas. all the while, biden waging any assault on american energy. why is our president disarming our nation of the very energy independence we depend on? -- we depend on." doug lamborn sing "unbelievable. the media is focusing on biden giving putin sunglasses but his biggest gift was waiting sanctions and allowing the nordstrom to write to resume." from virginia, "i am glad we don't have a president that cozies up to putin's authoritarianism. trump would cozy up to putin and pour cold water on allies. by instead extravagant structure." "we don't trust putin and we have to stand strong against's putin behavior. we must identify areas of common interest

biden, what did president biden achieve in first week of diplomacy? joined by former trump national security adviser kt mcfarland and author of the book, revolution, trump, washington and we the people. kt, thanks for being here. >> it's a pleasure, thank you. >> as i said, let's start with the putin meeting, the press loved it and said it was great. what interests -- what success do you think president biden had in his meeting with president putin? >> none. i think it was actually a real disaster for the united states. not biden personally. i'm an american, conservative, i'm a republican. i worked for president trump. when president biden walked into that meeting with putin, it was already cast. the week before he had one job, biden had one job to rally security and economic and trade partners in europe rallied them together to say, we will now all stand up against china and russia and china-russia combined and he failed to do that. by the time he walked in to see putin, he had already given up the ledge to putin because of the ran some wear attacks

caller: well look at biden. biden's an idiot. how can somebody say the united states is a model for democracy when we elect biden and harris? it's just incredible. host: out of new york city, bernard said yes the united states still is a model for democracy. why? caller: yes hello good morning c-span. can you hear me? host: yes, sir. why do you say yes to the question we're asking this morning? caller: i say yes but i say barely yes. and whether we'll be able to hold on personally i think it might be too late because of the damage that has already been done in the last four months. you know people do not understand biden or this administration or what happened. biden is not running things and neither is kamala harris. and conservatives, misunderstand this administration when they say they're ineffective. they're not ineffective they're enormously effective of bringing -- our liberties have been attacked from our free speech we're not allowed to say certain things, certain words are deluded. you can't go on facebook. conservatives

biden and putin first met in 2011 when then vice president biden said he looked into then prime minister putin's eyes and told him, he has no soul. they clashed again in 2014 when biden, speaking for the obama administration, condemned russia's annexation of crimea. today other issues on the table. from hacking to american rights. the meeting will take place in geneva's largest park. president putin will arrive at 7:00 a.m. eastern time and then president biden will arrive after. the three leaders will appear before the cameras where only the swiss president is expected to make remarks. then the meeting. secretary of state tony blinken will accompany biden for the first phase and putin will have his foreign minister and they each have a translator and five aides on each side and expected to last four to five hours with some breaks. after the meeting, president putin will hold a solo news conference and then that will be followed by president biden. joining us live from geneva, "the washington post" reporter ann garrin, a msnbc contributor. i know it's not so early this in geneva but stil

joe biden is the 13th u.s. president the queen has met. >>> just days from now, the highly anticipated meeting between president biden and vladimir putin after a wave of cyberattacks launched from russia. in an exclusive interview, putin denies knowing anything about the attacks and compares trump to biden. >> translator: we have a bilateral relationship that's deteriorated to its lowest point in recent years. former president, mr. trump, is a talented individual. president biden is dramatically different. it's my greatest hope, yes, there's some advantages and disadvantages. >>> hanging over all the meetings, the climate pry sis. carbon dioxide at its highest levels in the atmosphere and poor nations bearing the brun of it. prince charles called on allies to do more. >> can we once again literally put the wind in our sails and win the battle against climate change? the scale of the challenge is immense. the window of opportunity to tackle it is closing extremely fast. >>> joining me now from the uk is nbc news

>> watermelon president blamed the border crisis on biden the president of mexico blamed the on biden and the numbers, numbers do not lie under president bush and under president trump in 2020 there were 646,000 border crossers there's really been 170,000 illegal border crossings and the first four months which means were on track for 2.6 million this year it is unsustainable. the real reason why she doesn't want to come to the border is because just like senator cruz, the press will follow them and they will address the crisis the mainstream media is ignoring and so is the white house. elizabeth: is this just about optics, they could've just picked up the phone and said central america keep the strong border policies or were going to cut into your trade deal, we see the optics before, empty facilities that were democrat congressman out of texas saying these are fake photos showing facilities when you just moved illegal immigrants to another facility. is this just about optics. >> certain policies work and we know that nobody's going to come from central america illegally and very few

the job. >> president biden is being tested. early on in the administration you are tested by your adversaries. the cyberattack backed by russia on our energy supply and food supply, that shows the u.s. is vulnerable and that is president biden failing the test to secure our critical infrastructure. >> as has often happened at the start of the bilateral meetings, the pool spray got chaotic as the u.s. and russian press delegations were pushing and shoving with each other trying to gain access here and the white house disputing an american pool report that during that chaotic scene president biden nodded when he was asked by the pool producer the american television pool producer if he trusted putin. apparently he nodded his head. jen psaki disputed that during a chaotic free for all with the press shouting questions the president gave a general head nod in the direction of the media. he wasn't responding to any question or anything other than the chaos. the tv pool producer disagrees saying and the associated press wire reporter

president biden will arrive here in the next hour. there is no shortage of issues the two sides will need to address, including russia's continuing cyberattacks on the u.s. its detainment of several americans in russia. its continuing interference in u.s. elections. so many issues. president biden promising to challenge putin on those issues directly, poppy. >> ahead of his trip to geneva, biden was in brussels where he reaffirmed the united states commitment to strong transatlantic ties at the eu/u.s. summit. our team is following all of these crucial angles and sit-downs. let's start in brussels. arlette saenz is there. president biden spent the morning working with eu leaders. do we know their focus? >> president biden had this morning really caps off his tour of assuring allies that the united states is back and will continue to support them. this coming, of course, after those four years of president trump really testing and putting a strain on many of the united states' relationships with allies. and in a series of meetings this

and you look at what hunter biden says, the biden them is a clan family. and joe is the wizard. that outweighs the terms that use, the most derogatory and prejudicial using n-word come u regarding diapers. that is a person who is comfortable using the n-word. this family that history and demonizing black and the number one reason, when i left the democratic party because joe biden, national brady up and said if you don't vote for me, you ain't black. this guy is a racist and he needs to look and the mayor and acknowledge that him and his family are racist. it's insulting. >> at that after hearing what obama said and now seeing these e-mails and then looking at joe biden, joe biden partnered partner with the former klansma the business. >> filibustered the civil right act the 64, the voting right back up 65, the former klansman to stop the integration of schools and school busing because he didn't want to becom racial jungles, and joe's respect the day and he prays this man when he died. what if any republican put the last thing trump ever did what hunter h

biden became president. they are starkly different missions with president biden trying to restore america's diplomatic credibility, as president putin works to undermine it. let's return live to geneva and cnn's wolf blitzer. hi, wolf. >> hi, guys, thanks very much. final preparations clearly under way right now for the start of this historic summit. president biden he is already here, spent the night here fresh off two largely successful summits with g7 and nato allies. president putin as you say set to land in about an hour or so in geneva. the stakes at this summit are extremely high, relations between the united states and russia right now at their lowest point in years. vital american interests clearly on the table including cyber defense, even for that matter democracy itself. that according to president biden. joining us once again in geneva our chief national security correspondent jim sciutto and our senior international correspondent fred pleitgen. when we look at what's going on here and we say t
