Lavrov also said he was interested in prosecuting those accused of storming the Capitol on January 6. “In the United States, interesting things are happening. In terms of human rights, opposition rights, and opposition protection,” Lavrov said.

Human rights violations

Biden promised on Sunday to tell Putin that the United States will not allow Russia to violate human rights. Relations between the United States and Russia have deteriorated due to disagreements over important national issues, the mutual expulsion of diplomats, and allegations of election interference, espionage and cyberattacks against Moscow.

Biden and Putin will meet on June 16 in Geneva, Switzerland.
