MOSCOW, Oct. 16 (Xinhua) -- U.S. National Security Adviser John Bolton will visit Russia on Oct. 21-23, Russian presidential aide Yuri Ushakov confirmed Tuesday.
Bolton will arrive in Moscow on Sunday evening and stay through Tuesday, TASS news agency quoted Ushakov as saying.
Ushakov said that Bolton is scheduled to meet the Secretary of the Russian Security Council Nikolai Patrushev and Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov to discuss "the whole complex of relations, which are in a deplorable state."
He said that Bolton might have other meetings, but there is no agreement so far on a meeting with President Vladimir Putin.
Last week, Bolton wrote on Twitter that he would visit Russia, Azerbaijan, Armenia and Georgia "to meet with my counterparts and other senior officials to advance American interests on a range of security issues."
Bolton visited Russia in June and met Putin in the Kremlin. One of the most significant results of the visit was an agreement on a Putin-Trump summit in Helsinki on July 16.
Ushakov said there is no plan so far to organize a new Russia-U.S. summit.
