GENEVA (AP) — Fresh from supportive summits with allies, Joe Biden declared himself ready Tuesday to take on Russia’s Vladimir Putin in far more confrontational talks — a climactic finish to the most important week of meetings in his young presidency.
Biden meets for his first talks as president with the Russian leader on Wednesday, in what’s expected to be roughly a half-day of discussions between the two leaders and aides behind closed doors. That’s after spending much of a weeklong European trip — the foreign policy highlight of his presidency so far — working to strengthen ties with like-minded partner nations in order to better deal with rivals Russia and China.
A reporter soon after Biden’s arrival in Geneva on Tuesday shouted out a question on whether he was ready for Wednesday’s talks. “I am always ready,” Biden answered.
Biden’s European tour has aimed to restore U.S. partnerships that were damaged under former President Donald Trump, who openly invited what American intelligence services said was Russian interference in U.S. political campaigns, and who sought out Putin and other autocrats he saw as strong.
Biden goes into Wednesday’s talks bolstered not only by the supportive words of European allies but by the tangible news of a major breakthrough in a 17-year trade dispute centered on rival subsidies for aircraft manufacturers.
At almost every stop this week, the president repeated his message that “America is back,” in hopes of convincing both allies and rivals that the U.S. is engaged and strong internationally after Trump’s isolationist presidency and the political upheaval that peaked last January in violence at the U.S. Capitol.
Political sniping continued. House Republican leader Kevin McCarthy accused the Democratic president of deferring to Putin on his trip abroad and making America weaker.

It looks like Bidet’s drooling is contagious—AP has gone full senile!
Is Biden going to lift his leg on him?
Putin knows Biden barely knows what day of the week it is.
The AP is one of the most pathetically biased “news” distributors today. In this environment, that is really saying something.
Right. The AP. You bet.’
the president repeated his message that “America is back to a room full of Socialist Leaders with thier HANDS OUT
This is all a farce. Biden will walk in, and start some kind of discord so he can claim he “stood up to Putin”. He is likely primed with a few tripwires that launch him into his planned walkout or whatever.
1) He wants a Reagan at Reykjavik vibe.
2) He cannot have any agreements, that would undermine the outrage when Trump was friendly to him and all was cordial.
3) He is and has always been a rude asshole. Witness the ways he lashed out at voters, calling them liars, wanting to do pushups, saying he wants to beat up Trump. He is an ignorant man and has no capacity otherwise.
So it is set in stone, Biden will “stand up” to Putin, and come out declaring victory.
America is now the USSR, and we have our own Andropov.
The AP has certainly been on a Biden tear of late. Some bad news for the boys in the boardroom: it isn’t working.
Here’s the thing: I don’t even think that most liberals are stupid enough to believe this crap.
But they all nod and smile; they are all in on it, to try to pretend Joe can function as POTUS.
It is both humiliating and terrifying.
Yeah, I think those three might need a towel after writing that. For drool or whatever.
Sheesh AP! Sucking up much?
Took 3 writers to come up with this journalistic handjob.
These guys make Baghdad Bob look credible.
More AP drivel written by foreigners
Vlad will chew #PresidentPotato up and spit him out all the way back to Wilmington and the White Basement. No contest. Whom are you rooting for?
Yo! AzzPress!
That taste in your mouth is what you get for fellating a turd 24/7/365.
“who openly invited what American intelligence services said was Russian interference in U.S. political campaigns”
Oh yes, that joke at a rally, saying “hey Russia, maybe if you can find Hillary’s emails” people would be really interested.
It was a clear joke and these humorless idiots keep pretending it was real. Meanwhile, the communists (DNC) get actual assistance from China, the UK, Australia, Ukraine, Germany, etc.
