U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken will meet with Ukrainian Foreign Ministers Dmytro Kuleba and Russian Foreign Minister Serhiy Lavrov on the sidelines of a ministerial meeting of the OSCE participating states in Stockholm, Sweden, on Thursday, December 2, according to Bloomberg.

Before Blinken meets the Russian official, he will meet Ukrainian Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba separately, the report said.

It notes that this will be the first direct contact between U.S. and Russian foreign ministers in weeks amid news that Russia may plan to invade Ukraine.
