Russian foreign minister Lavrov arrives in US for G20 meeting

Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov has journeyed to Atlanta, Georgia for the G20 foreign ministers' meeting, as reported by the state-owned TASS news agency. This two-day assembly of leading global economies is set to occur amidst ongoing disputes, including the US-Iran conflict and the war in Ukraine, amidst persistently high oil prices.

The G20 talks in Atlanta will take place in the days leading up to the pivotal US midterm elections, providing a platform to strategize ahead of the December G20 leaders' summit in Miami. Lavrov is expected to address the international community during his speech, advocating against international sanctions. This announcement was made by Moscow on Thursday, hinting at forthcoming discussions among representatives from Moscow, Kyiv, and Washington to find a resolution to the ongoing Ukrainian conflict.
