Secretary of State Mike Pompeo will meet with Russian president Vladimir Putin on Tuesday, according to the State Department.
In a Friday press release, the department announced that Pompeo would leave on Sunday for a two-day trip to Moscow and Sochi, where the State secretary will meet with Putin and Russian Foreign minister Sergey Lavrov.
The statement says they will discuss “the full range of bilateral and multilateral challenges.”
It’s unclear whether Pompeo will take a firmer tone against Russia’s election meddling than President Donald Trump, who said he didn’t even discuss meddling during his hour-long phone call with Putin earlier this month.

It’s due to a couple of reasons, but I doubt that he’ll stray from the company line.
welp …
does anybody want to give me odds ? ? …
I gotta look, but Tillie went against TrumpCo and his reward was a pink slip via Twittah.
Plus Pompey used to be a Wikileaks fan.
of course he’ll keep his mouth shut —
I didn’t say they’d have to be huge odds …
[ don’t forget you’re already into me for 2 ] –
Maybe Pootie will put out the red carpet for Pompeo, though probably not the one he tripped on that sent him sprawling. I heard that one was pushed off a balcony.
Haha!
