The Serbian capital is currently hosting the OSCE Ministerial Council conference. The annual meeting provides foreign ministers for the 57 OSCE member nations and 11 partner states with the opportunity to assess the past year’s activities and address global security.

Lavrov and Steinmeier have been engaged in a number of bilateral and multilateral international talks and meetings on a range of issues, including the Syrian conflict and the Ukrainian reconciliation.

Last month, the two foreign ministers discussed both issues in a phone conversation. The talks followed a November 6 Normandy Quartet meeting on Ukraine.
