President Joe Biden is the first president since the Cold War to begin his term not seeking closer relations with Russia; there will be no “reset.” He has indicated instead that he will push back against Russian misbehavior while seeking to cooperate where doing so advances U.S. interests. In his first 100 days, Mr. Biden has sought to distinguish his policy, from that of Donald Trump, who seemed incapable of criticizing Russian President Vladimir Putin or Russian transgressions.
