WASHINGTON/MOSCOW (Reuters) - The United States and Russia are lowering expectations for big breakthroughs at a superpower summit between U.S. President Joe Biden and Russian President Vladimir Putin, with the adversaries in no mood to make concessions on their bitter disagreements.

The summit details - location, time and agenda - are still being negotiated by the two sides with the goal of scheduling it in June in a third country, following Biden's visits to the United Kingdom and Brussels for talks with allies on his first trip abroad since taking office in January.
