According to Politico, citing two sources, U.S. officials are expected to hold talks. The meeting is set to discuss key issues in bilateral relations and pathways for further cooperation. One of the sources noted that the meeting is preparatory in nature and serves as an important step before a planned summit in the near future. "We see this meeting as an opportunity to clarify positions and find common ground on the most contentious issues," the source told the publication. The talks are expected to be held in a closed format, and the results will be announced after all stages of consultations are complete.
