Russia’s Sputnik V coronavirus vaccine may be supplied to Germany in June, with talks on that matter continuing, the Russian Direct Investment Fund said on Sunday on Sputnik V’s Telegram channel.
"Talks with Germany on purchased of the vaccine continue. The Sputnik V vaccine may be supplied to Germany this June, and not to the prejudice to supplies to other countries," it said.
Germany’s Bild reported earlier on Sunday that talks on Germany’s possible purchase of the Russian vaccine had allegedly come to a dead end. The Russian Direct Investment Fund refuted these reports as untrue.
"Bild’s reports are not true and can be seen as an example of a disinformation campaign geared to bar the Russian and other similar vaccines from entering the European and other markets. In the recent time, the Bild newspaper has published more than 15 such articles attacking the Sputnik V vaccine that contain wrong facts based on information from anonymous sources," it said.
