GENEVA (Sputnik) — There is a high possibility that Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov and US Secretary of State John Kerry will meet the next week in Geneva, Russia's Deputy Foreign Minister Sergei Ryabkov said Monday.

"Rather high chances are present that Russian Foreign Minister and US Secretary of State will be in Geneva the next week due to schedules of each of them. Probably, it in itself implies that they will meet in bilateral format," he said.
