Kremlin Calms Fears Over Lavrov's Absence Amid Speculation of Policy Shakeup

Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov reassured the public that Foreign Minister "Sergey Lavrov" remains in his position following speculation about a policy shakeup after his absence from a key meeting.

• "Sergey Lavrov" did not attend a Russian Security Council meeting on Wednesday, which raised concerns amid discussions led by "Vladimir Putin" about potential nuclear testing.
• The "Moscow Kremlin" emphasized that reports of a reshuffle in foreign policy leadership are unfounded, easing worries about Lavrovs status in the government.
• The absence of "Sergey Lavrov" coincided with heightened tensions surrounding international relations, especially ahead of the upcoming "G20" summit where global leaders will gather.
