What to expect when US and Russian leaders meet today

BBC World Service - Newsday, What to expect when US and Russian leaders meet today

President Biden and President Putin are taking part in a summit in Geneva

The meeting comes at a time when some say the relationship between these two nuclear super-powers is worse than during the Cold War.

When the US and Russian leaders meet in Geneva it will be the first time since Joe Biden became President, so what should we look out for? We get the view of Rose Gottemoeller, a former Deputy Secretary General of NATO and a Russia expert. 

Israel says it has launched air strikes against Hamas targets in the Gaza Strip, in retaliation for incendiary balloons fired from the territory. We get the latest.

And we speak to the Chief Prosecutor to the International Criminal Court, Fatou Bensouda, who leaves her post today after nine years.
