“I believe that in Moscow and the Moscow region, it is imperative to continue the regime of self-isolation as strictly as it was before, based on the difficult situation that is emerging,” he said at a meeting with President Vladimir Putin.

Putin said earlier that the day off in Russia will last until May 11.

On April 27, Moscow Region Governor Andrei Vorobyov said that the situation with the virus in the region was still difficult, noting that the regime of self-isolation and admission should be extended in the region.
