Main Points
Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov arrived in the United States on Friday to attend the G20 foreign‑ministers meeting in Atlanta, Georgia, according to the state news agency TASS. The two‑day gathering of the world’s largest economies is taking place amid a series of escalating conflicts, including the ongoing war in Ukraine and heightened tensions between the United States and Iran. Oil prices remain elevated. The Atlanta talks occur just days before the United States’ congressional elections and are seen as a precursor to the December G20 leaders’ summit in Miami, which will be hosted at the Doral resort owned by former President Donald Trump. Moscow announced on Thursday that Lavrov would use his address at the meeting to criticize international sanctions. The speech is expected to set the stage for a new round of discussions involving Moscow, Kyiv and Washington on potential pathways to end the war in Ukraine. The G20 was established in 1999 and brings together major developed economies, including the United States, France, India and the European Union. Its members account for roughly 85 % of global GDP and more than 75 % of world trade. The group operates without fixed legal membership criteria or a permanent secretariat.
