"We are extremely interested in finding ways in order to create the conditions for effective dialogue, create the conditions for a ceasefire as soon as possible, create the conditions for a peaceful solution", Guterres said at a meeting with Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov.
He was later due to meet President Vladimir Putin.
This will be the first contact of the Russian President with the UN Secretary-General since the beginning of the Ukraine war. The last time they interacted was in a video format last May when Guterres also visited Russia.
