Russian President Vladimir Putin and his US counterpart Joe Biden have strong disagreements on a number of important issues, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said.

During previous talks, Putin elaborated on Russia’s national interests and “red lines”, but Biden showed unwillingness to recognise them, Peskov said in a televised interview on Friday.

While the Presidents had “mutually respectful, constructive and very businesslike” conversations, “they are not friends since they did not communicate much”, he said.
