Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov said Russia and the United States maintain regular dialogue through various formats, according to TASS.
"We maintain regular dialogue with the [US President Donald] Trump administration in various formats. This alone equates to normality," Lavrov said.
The remarks suggest that, despite broader tensions over the war in Ukraine and other disputes, some level of consistent diplomatic contact continues between Moscow and Washington.
The report did not specify what formats of dialogue Lavrov was referencing or which officials have been involved in the exchanges.
Lavrov's comments were part of a wider set of statements on US-Russia relations made around the UN General Assembly's general debate session.
