US Secretary of State Antony Blinken and Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov have met briefly at a gathering of top diplomats from the Group of 20 nations in the first high-level meeting in months between the two countries.
US officials said Blinken and Lavrov spoke on Thursday for roughly 10 minutes on the sidelines of the G20 conference in New Delhi. The short encounter comes as relations between Washington and Moscow have plummeted while tensions over Russia’s war in Ukraine have soared.
