“Of course, any head of the region of the Russian Federation in such a situation is in close coordination with the federal authorities, and even more so with the head of state. Moreover, Sergey Semyonovich (Sobyanin) heads one of the units of the main headquarters for the fight against coronavirus and carries out inter-regional coordination, ”he told reporters.

The mayor of Moscow announced that starting March 30, a self-isolation regime for all residents of any age will be introduced in the capital.

As the Kremlin noted, the measures are absolutely consistent with the tasks of combating coronavirus and the tasks of ensuring the epidemiological safety of people.

Prime Minister Mikhail Mishustin instructed regional governors to work out measures similar to those taken in Moscow and the Moscow Region.
