Russian President Vladimir Putin will meet later on Tuesday with US Secretary of State John Kerry in the southern Russian resort city of Sochi, Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov said Tuesday, according to Sputnik News.

"The president will meet with Secretary of State Kerry," Peskov told journalists.

According to Peskov, Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov and John Kerry will meet first. The top diplomats are expected to discuss the situation in Ukraine, Yemen, Iran and Syria.

The agenda for the meeting between Vladimir Putin and John Kerry is broad, but a discussion on sanctions is not a topic for Russia, Dmitry Peskov said.

“The agenda is extremely broad, of course,” Peskov told journalists.
