The Russians want to discuss the foundations of a multipolar world order at the G20 foreign ministers' summit.

Sergey Lavrov will attend the G20 foreign ministers' meeting in the U.S., aiming to promote proposals for strengthening a multipolar world order. The meeting is scheduled for October 30-31 in Atlanta. Despite U.S. sanctions since the onset of the Russia-Ukraine war, Lavrov has visited the U.S. for UN General Assembly sessions. A G20 summit will also take place in Miami in December, where Vladimir Putin has been invited, with discussions of a peace agreement involving him and Volodymyr Zelensky. The Kremlin has not confirmed Putin's attendance. The outcome of upcoming U.S.-Russia-Ukraine consultations may influence these events. Additionally, U.S. midterm elections on November 3 could impact Republican prospects and regional tensions.
