President Vladimir Putin called on Russians Friday to get vaccinated against the coronavirus and said Moscow was prepared to allow foreigners to enter the country to get the jab. The Kremlin chief used the country's main economic forum in the second city of Saint Petersburg to issue a new plea for Russians to get immunised, as authorities struggle to ramp up vaccination efforts. "Every adult citizen of Russia has the opportunity to get vaccinated completely free of charge," Putin told the Saint Petersburg International Economic Forum, which is often called the Russian Davos. "I'd like to ask our citizens to use this opportunity to protect themselves and their loved ones."More Related News
