Biden and Putin start summit.

“I think it’s always better to meet face-to-face,” Biden told Putin.

“I hope our meeting will be productive,” the Russian leader said.
Putin, via translator: "I'd like to thank you for the initiative to meet today.”

“Still, the US and Russian relations have a lot of issues … that requires collaborating and I hope that our meeting will be productive.”
The 1st session of Biden and Putin’s private meetings started at 1:44p in Geneva and ended at 3:17p, per White House. The small meeting was Biden, Putin, Blinken, Lavrov and two interpreters.

Expanded bilat has begun now.

If you are outside, seek cover.”

At meeting with Chinese delegation in Alaska, @SecBlinken says US intends to discuss cyber attacks, Xinjiang, Hong Hong, Taiwan. Blinken criticizes China for taking some actions that “threaten the rule based order that maintain global stability.”
"We do not seek conflict,” Biden national security adviser @JakeSullivan46 tells the Chinese delegation at meeting in Alaska, “but we welcome stiff competition."
US and China bear great resposibility in world’s stability and peace, Yang Jiechi, a top Chinese diplomat, tells @JakeSullivan46 and @SecBlinken. He says US has American style democracy; China has its own style of democracy. But both share interest in climate, economic recovery.

Biden must apologize and take back “boorish” allegations that Putin is a killer, top Russian official says, per
@tonyhalpin.

Summoning their ambassador from the US “won’t be the last, unless there is an explanation and an apology from the American side.”

Biden's inauguration speech will last 20 to 30 minutes. Theme is “unity,” his aides say.
Trump in his farewell speech will say: “I am especially proud to be the first president in decades who has started no new wars.

“All Americans were horrified by the assault on our Capitol. Political violence is an attack on everything we cherish.”
“Now, as I prepare to hand power over to a new administration at noon on Wednesday, I want you to know that the movement we started is only just beginning,” Trump will say in farewell speech.

NEW: White House sends invitations for Trump’s departure event at Joint Base Andrews—starts at 8a Wednesday.

Guests must arrive between 6a and 7:15a; may bring up to five other people; and must wear mask, the invites say, according to one shared with me by an ex Trump official.
Trump’s “ceremony” is scheduled for 8 a.m. at the military base where the outgoing president will make his final departure aboard Air Force One.

He’ll be 1st living US president in more than a century to choose not to attend regular exchange of power.

bloomberg.com/news/articles/…
It’s difficult to find folks who *are* planning to go to Trump’s departure events early tomorrow.

Ex national security adviser John Bolton and deputy Charlie Kupperman were invited; not going.

Same with ex chief John Kelly and ex comms aide Anthony Scaramucci; many others.
