Russian and US law enforcement officers will meet in Moscow this week to discuss the joint search for criminals, a source from the Russian Prosecutor General's Office told Interfax on Monday.
The Office has initiated the second session of the Russian-US working party, which was established at a meeting of Russian Prosecutor General Yuri Chaika and US Attorney General Eric Holder in May 2012.
The working party will convene in Moscow on November 14-15.
"The sides will discuss reciprocal legal assistance and cooperation in the search for wanted criminals and in the investigation of crimes," the Prosecutor General's Office said.
The US delegation will be comprised of officers of the FBI and the Department of Homeland Security, while Russia will be represented by officers of the Investigative Committee and the Federal Security Service, the report said.
Sources familiar with the situation told Interfax last week that a delegation of the US Department of Justice and the FBI would visit Moscow within a few days to discuss cooperation with their Russian colleagues.
