"I wanted Mr. Putin to be aware of the way the United States thinks," he says. "Can we walk back from the brink of nuclear war? Can we?" Casky asks Biden, who has been criticized for meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin in Moscow this week. 'There's no reason' not to try and have a discussion without falling into ideologies, she adds.
