Director-General of the Russian Direct Investment Fund Kirill Dmitriyev has stated that Russia has exported "Avavavir" medicine for treating people living with coronavir virus to 15 countries.

The Russian news agency "Novosti" said this came, according to Dmitriyev, today, Monday, during an interview with the channel "Russia 24".

He added: "There are two drugs available against Corona to be supplied to a group of countries: American (Remisdivir) and the second (Avivavir) Russia. The United States has purchased 90% of (Remisdivir), so it is not surprising that 15 countries bought our drug."

In cooperation with the Khimarar group of companies, the Russian Fund formed a joint company called "Chromis" to produce Avivavir.

Earlier, Chromis said it had agreed with 7 countries in Latin America and South Africa regarding the supply of the Coronavirus drug.
