The Russian president is the first major western leader to indicate his attendance at the Games.

Putin is the first world leader to agree to attend the 2021 Winter Olympics in China following a boycott by top officials in other countries

His remarks came in a video call with Chinese President Xi Jinping, who said he looked forward to a "get-together".This is due to alleged human rights abuses in China, which Beijing denies. China has been accused of genocide in its repression of the predominantly Muslim Uyghur minority in Xinjiang - an allegation it has repeatedly rejected.

The US, UK and Australia and Canada have said their high-level officials will not be attending the winter Games, which will take place in February, as a result.China has taken aim at countries joining the diplomatic boycott, saying they would "pay the price for their mistaken acts".
