Biden will also likely press Putin on joining the G-7 nations’ just-announced international infrastructure initiative aimed at pushing back on China‘s influence in the global community. Sullivan on Monday told reporters that Biden plans to press Putin to help him provide a check on China, which is a big ask since Moscow and Beijing are aligned against Washington and the West on many issues.
The new G-7 agreement, dubbed “Build Back Better World” by Biden and his allies, will direct “hundreds of billions of dollars in infrastructure investment for low and middle-income countries that need it,” an administration official told reporters Saturday morning.
