Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov held his final bilateral meeting on the sidelines of the United Nations General Assembly session, according to Russian state media.
Lavrov is expected to hold a traditional news conference at UN headquarters in New York before his departure, a practice he has followed in previous years at the conclusion of his participation in the annual UN gathering.
Part of annual UN General Assembly diplomacy
The UN General Assembly's high-level session each September draws foreign ministers and heads of state from around the world for a series of bilateral and multilateral meetings alongside the formal proceedings. Lavrov has regularly used the sidelines of the session to hold meetings with counterparts from other countries.
Details on which country's representative Lavrov met with in this particular bilateral meeting, or the topics discussed, were not specified in the available report.
Lavrov's closing news conference is typically used to address a range of foreign policy topics and answer questions from journalists covering the session.
