Several foreign parliamentarians visited Russia to be vaccinated against the coronavirus with the Sputnik V vaccine, State Duma Chairman Viacheslav Volodin told reporters.
Earlier, Bundestag deputy from the Left Party (Die Linke) Dieter Dam was vaccinated with the Russian Sputnik V coronavirus vaccine in Moscow.
“It’s no secret that this is not the first such deputy. Since last year, people have been coming from different countries and doing it”, – he said, answering a question about Dam.
According to Volodin, some of the members of the Bundestag are among those vaccinated.
“The Sputnik question is a question of big politics and big money. The United States is trying to impose its own vaccine and is doing everything to prevent other vaccines from entering the market. Not only ours, but also, for example, the Chinese. Now everything has become clear to whom the war, and to whom the mother is native. If they see the scientific developments of our country, they begin to put blocks”, – said the speaker of the State Duma.
