Mike Pompeo is to meet Russian President Vladimir Putin and Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov when he travels to Russia next week, US State Department said in a statement.
The visit comes as the relations between Moscow and Washington come to a new low over accusations of Russian meddling and disagreements over approaches to situations in Venezuela and Iran's nuclear program.
The State Department says they will discuss "the full range of bilateral and multilateral challenges" during a meeting in the southern city of Sochi on May 14.
Pompeo met Lavrov in Finland early this week at the Arctic summit.
