Joe Biden after meeting with Putin: “I did what I came to do”

US Presidnet Joe Biden said the talks with Vladimir Putin in Geneva were "positive" but warned the US would not tolerate interference in US democracy, the BBC reports.

Putin described his talks with the US president as "constructive". He said the two sides agreed to return ambassadors after they were withdrawn earlier this year.

A wide range of topics, from cyber attacks to Ukraine were discussed, but little in the way of concrete deals.

“I did what I came to do,” Biden said.

He said that the US and Russia had agreed to cooperate and “advance our mutual interests”.

"The last thing Putin wants is a new Cold War," Biden told journalists.
