US President Joe Biden and his Russian counterpart, Vladimir Putin, discussed, during their summit in Geneva, to continue a U.N-backed cross-border aid operation into Syria whose mandate is due to expire next month, a U.S. official said.
During a press briefing published by the State Department, a U.S. senior official stated that Biden and Putin discussed the Syrian file, in addition to Afghanistan, among many other regional issues, and it was agreed to search for ways to cooperate, adding that the United Nations will determine in a month whether the humanitarian corridor would be expanded in Syria or not.
