German Chancellor Olaf Scholz refused to take advantage of the services of Russian doctors when passing PCR testing for a coronavirus infection before meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin. This was announced by the TV channel Welt.
Instead, PCR testing Chancellor FRG will hold a doctor from the German Embassy in Russia. According to sources from the environment of the head of the Government of Germany, the Russian health authorities are invited to attend testing. Scholz himself, his whole delegation and the journalists accompanying him – only more than 50 people – should have been given a total of three negative PCR tests before departure from Germany.
Earlier it was reported that France President Emmanuel Macron also refused the services of the Russian side when passing the PCR test during his visit to Moscow a few days ago. The result was strictly observing the social distance during the negotiations in the Kremlin.
