On Tuesday, April 25, there will be a meeting on the Middle East settlement.

Lavrov arrived in New York on the night of April 24.

Earlier, Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said that the United States still did not issue visas to Russian journalists to fly to New York for a meeting of the UN Security Council, despite the fact that the American embassy announced "work on this."

Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Sergei Ryabkov sharply condemned the behavior of the United States. According to him, the country lied about working on American visas.
