US Secretary of State Anthony Blinken said in an interview with MSNBC that relations between Moscow and Washington are at a low point.
“From our point of view, it is very clear that the reckless and aggressive actions that Russia is consistently taking are responsible [for the deterioration of relations],” he said.
The HEAD of the State Department agreed with the assessment that relations between Russia and the United States are at their lowest point. “That may be the only thing I agree with [Russian President Vladimir] Putin on, an accurate description,” the secretary of state said.

Blinken stressed that for US President Joe Biden, the purpose of the meeting with Putin is to say that the US wants a more stable and predictable relationship. According to him, Washington is ready for such relations and "would prefer them", as it is in the interests of both states and the whole world.
