"This is most likely the American president's general practice. As we know, the US president also held a separate press conference in England. They did not hold a joint press conference with [UK Prime Minister] Boris Johnson. We also learned that Mr Biden is planning to hold a separate press conference [after meeting with Putin]. As we said earlier, after the talks are over, President Putin will also go out separately to talk to the press", Peskov said.
The statement was announced after Bloomberg reported, citing a White House spokesperson, that president Biden will hold a press conference by himself after the meeting with his Russian counterpart.
According to the White House official, a conference in such a format would be most suitable.
The Putin-Biden summit is expected to be held on 16 June at Villa La Grange in Geneva, Switzerland. It will be their first meeting since Biden's inauguration.
Putin noted that he and his US counterpart need to find ways to mend relations between the two nations during the talks in Geneva, as they will likely discuss strategic stability, the settlement of international conflicts, and the joint fight against terrorism.
