On September 21, 2022, Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov met with President of the 77th UNGA session Csaba Kőrösi during the high-level segment of the UN General Assembly.

The parties reviewed in detail various aspects of the General Assembly's activities and noted the importance of raising its effectiveness and maintaining an atmosphere of cooperation and trust at its venue. These efforts are particularly important amid the collective West's attempts to politicise UNGA activities, erode its mandate, and make it a tool for exerting political pressure, including in the context of the situation in Ukraine and Donbass.

Sergey Lavrov called on the President of the 77th session of the General Assembly to pursue balanced and equidistant policies while in his high office, and expressed hope that Csaba Kőrösi would invariably be guided by the interests of all member states, facilitate the removal of dividing lines and, in conjunction with constructively-minded countries, advance the standing of the General Assembly as the core statutory UN body.
