    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.
