The current Ukrainian government continues to ignore any opportunities for cooperation with the Russian Federation related to the supply or production of a vaccine against coronavirus. What is more, as soon as one learned that the Bіolik enterprise in Kharkiv could establish the production of the Russian vaccine, representatives of the Ukrainian special services immediately raided there.

The reaction of the Ukrainian government towards the Russian Sputnik V vaccine testifies to the incapacity of Volodymyr Zelenskyy’s team, according to Oleksandr Lukashev, MP from the OPPOSITION PLATFORM – FOR LIFE party.

The developer of the Sputnik V coronavirus vaccine – Russian National Research Center for Epidemiology and Microbiology named after M.F. Gamaleya – agreed to provide Ukraine with technology and raw materials for the production of this vaccine at a Ukrainian enterprise. Ukraine, for its part, has the necessary production capacities and could produce hundreds of thousands of doses of vaccine monthly. The major task for this project now is registration in Ukraine and obtaining the appropriate permits for the delivery of vaccines to the domestic market. This was stated by the chair of the political council of the Opposition Platform – For Life party Viktor Medvedchuk in Moscow during a joint briefing with the head of the Russian Direct Investment Fund Kyryl Dmytriyev and the director of the Research Center Oleksandr Gintsburg.

Compromise, negotiations and implementation of the Minsk agreements – these should be the steps by official Kyiv to achieve peace in eastern Ukraine. This was stated by the co-chair of the OPPOSITION PLATFORM – FOR LIFE faction Yurii Boyko in his commentary to journalists.
