Russia accused of ‘aggressive vaccine push in Africa’

March 27, 2021
ShareShareShareShare

France’s foreign minister has accused Russia of using its Sputnik coronavirus vaccine as an instrument of aggressive diplomacy.

Jean-Yves Le Drian contrasted the fanfare around a recent Russian delivery of a consignment of Sputnik V to Tunisia with that given to the much larger delivery through the UN-backed global Covax initiative.

He made a similar contrast with a delivery of the Chinese Sinopharm vaccine in Senegal with Covax consignments.

The AFP news agency quotes the minister telling France’s Info Radio that Russia had announced “with a lot of media attention” that it would deliver 30,000 vaccine doses to Tunisia.

By then, the UN-backed initiative had already delivered 100,000 doses to the north African country, the AFP adds, quoting the minister.

The manufacturers of Sputnik V have not yet applied for market authorisation for the vaccine in the European Union, although EU regulators have begun a rolling review of test data.
