Previously, Lavrov said in an interview that he will review the issues of multilateral cooperation and ensuring an equal and indivisible security.
"We will talk about how the West tries to manipulate everyone and everything," the minister pointed out.
According to Lavrov, it is necessary to hear what Western representative will say to "the question, asked for the tenth time already: can we see the list of people, whose bodies were shown by BBC reporters in Bucha?"
A number of bilateral meeting have also been planned, dedicated to discussion of current issues of international and regional agenda, including the Middle East and the Gaza Strip, the Ukrainian crisis and the efforts on protection of the UN Charter.
According to Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Sergey Ryabkov, the US has not requested a meeting between US Secretary of State Antony Blinken and Sergey Lavrov on the sidelines of the UN Security Council meetings.
