Find out more about our donor programsAfter four years of a Trump presidency marked by “Russiagate”, the election of Joe Biden at the end of 2020 marks a new turning point in Russian-American relations. While the change in the American administration allowed the New START treaty on strategic arms reduction to be saved in extremis, the interactions between Presidents Biden and Putin through the media remain marked by hostility. No breakthrough seems possible on the “hot” issues, especially Ukraine, and US sanctions against Russia have increased. Should we expect a further deterioration of the relationship? Who are the main actors in the bilateral dialogue, and how are they positioned? What are the possible areas of cooperation?
