Russian, Ukrainian FMs set to meet in Antalya

KABUL (Pajhwok): Top Russian and Ukrainian diplomats are expected to meet in Turkey today (Thursday), says a media report.

Ukrainian Foreign Minister Dmitry Kuleba and his Russian counterpart Sergey Lavrov are likely to meet on the sidelines of a diplomatic event in Antalya.

Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova confirmed the planned meeting to Sputnik Radio on Wednesday.

“Since Ukraine has confirmed it, the meeting will indeed take place, particularly because it was initiated by Turkey,” she added.

With the war raging in Ukraine, Turkish Foreign Minister Mevlut Cavusoglu will also attend today’s meeting.
