Hamáček wants Biden and Putin to meet in Prague

Deputy Prime Minister and acting Minister of Foreign Affairs Jan Hamáček has asked Czech ambassadors in Russia and the United States to propose Prague as the location of a possible meeting between presidents Joe Biden and Vladimir Putin.

According to a Kremlin statement released after a call between Biden and Putin on Tuesday, President Biden "suggested considering the possibility of holding a personal meeting at the highest level in the foreseeable future".

Relations between the US and Russia are currently frosty. Not least because of the rising tensions between Russia and Ukraine.
