US President Barack Obama is due in Moscow for a summit with his
Russian counterpart Dmitry Medvedev.
Arms control will top the agenda of the summit. The Soviet-era Start
I accord expires in December.
The two leaders are also expected to discuss regional issues such as
Iran, European security and Afghanistan during the two-day visit.
President Obama will hold talks with Vladimir Putin, currently prime
minister and formerly president, on Tuesday.
Both sides have made clear their desire to improve, or "reset",
relations between Washington and Moscow.
Mr Obama flew out of Andrews Air Force Base aboard Air Force One on
Sunday evening, together with his wife and two daughters.
He is due to begin his visit by laying a wreath at the Grave of an
Unknown Soldier near the Kremlin wall, before talks with Mr Medvedev,
the BBC reports.
