[...] This year marks 70 years since the Second World War ended. Commemorations have been taking place across Germany and Europe since January.
German Chancellor Angela Merkel will meet with Russian President Vladimir Putin on Sunday, and lay a wreath at the tomb of the Unknown Soldier in Moscow before formal discussions.
"We are pinning big hopes on the talks that are scheduled for the May 10 visit to Moscow by German Chancellor Angela Merkel," Lavrov said.
Like many Western leaders, Merkel has refused an invitation to attend the former Soviet state's Victory Day celebrations on May 9, in protest over the war in Ukraine.
