Top EU, Russian Diplomats to Meet March 6 in Rome
The European Union's foreign policy supremo said Wednesday she would hold talks with Russia's foreign minister next month in Rome, as Brussels and Moscow seek to defuse tensions over Ukraine.
Catherine Ashton announced she would meet Sergei Lavrov in Rome on March 6. "Issues on international agenda to be discussed," she added in a statement posted on Twitter.
The crisis in Ukraine, which is in danger of being pulled apart in a tug-of-war between Russia and Europe, was expected to feature highly in the discussions.
