biden could inform president erdogan he was going to be recognizing the armenian genocide, something that, of course, past presidents avoided doing because they did not want to infuriate turkey. he did that. his reaction was more muted, i think, than most peramericans predicted it would be. we do know they have a slew of topics to discuss but one big one is russia and that upcoming summit with president putin and president biden's national security adviser jake sullivan said he does expect the president to compare notes with erdogan about putin in this meeting to prepare him for what is going to happen in that sitdown that they're having in geneva on wednesday, something that president biden is really kind of taking the temperature, not just from erdogan, but from multiple other world leaders. he even discussed it with the queen, john, so this is really all of this buildup to see what that final meeting is going to look like in geneva. >> kaitlan collins live in brussels, appreciate the live reporting. and to share reporting and insights, dana bash, kylie
