I think he is afraid of this meeting.

The Americans simply moved to a different level of international relations ... You can offend someone in absentia, but in a personal conversation they are afraid to do it, ”the senator expressed confidence. 

At the same time, Dzhabarov added that "Russia is a great country, and a great country always forgives the weaknesses that some allow." 

“Nevertheless, Russia is open to negotiations.

The more Biden hides, the weaker his positions look, ”the parliamentarian concluded.  

Earlier, the Russian Foreign Ministry announced that the United States did not support the proposal to talk between Putin and Biden.

The department emphasized that the responsibility for "missing another opportunity to find a way out of the impasse in Russian-American relations caused by Washington's fault" lies with the United States.

On March 18, Putin invited Biden to hold open talks online.

He also wished his American colleague good health, commenting on Biden's affirmative answer to the journalist's provocative question whether he considers the Russian leader a "killer."

Biden said he would hold new talks with Putin "at some stage."
