The U.S. and Russia will return their ambassadors to their posts and have agreed to hold talks on arms control, cyber-security and diplomatic ties, Russian President Vladimir Putin said after his summit meeting with U.S. President Joe Biden.

“We agreed that they would return to their service,” Putin said Wednesday at a news conference after the Geneva summit concluded. “As for the timeline, tomorrow or the day after, this is a technical question.”
