President Obama plans to meet with Russian President Vladimir Putin next week at the United Nations, a conversation likely to cover Syria and Ukraine -- and their first face-to-face encounter in nearly a year amid strongly troubled relations between the two nations.
Putin is to speak Monday at the U.N. General Assembly. The Kremlin says their meeting will take place on the sidelines, though it was unclear whether it would come before or after the speech.
The White House confirmed the meeting, saying it was at Putin's request, and indicated it would be used to address Russia's involvement in both Ukraine and Syria.
Press Secretary Josh Earnest said Obama plans to tell Putin that boosting his support for Syria's Bashar Assad is a "losing bet" and urge a "constructive contribution" toward the anti-Islamic State campaign.
