“We are grateful for the professional assessment given by the sanitary doctors of the Republic of Belarus, assessing the effectiveness and success of the experimental cycle for testing the vaccine, which showed that it can be produced jointly,” BelTA quotes his words on air on STV TV channel. 

Mezentsev said that at the beginning of 2021 Sputnik V will arrive in Belarus for vaccination.

Earlier, the Belarusian leader Alexander Lukashenko said that he was not going to be vaccinated against COVID-19.
