“There is an epidemiological rule - we exit the restriction regime in the same way as we entered the restriction regime, that is, gradually remove it,” she said.

According to her, the most “last restrictions that will be lifted” will be “restrictions or a ban on holding mass events.”

“This will be the final point,” said Popova.

She said that the restrictions that can be lifted in the first place, it will be possible to speak only by May 12.

Previously, Popova noted that "the restrictions can be lifted by assessing the epidemic situation."

In late April, Russian leader Vladimir Putin instructed the government to prepare recommendations for a phased exit from the regime of restrictions on coronavirus.
