President Vladimir Putin has said that Russian authorities have the coronavirus crisis under full control and that everything will work out with God’s help, even as the country registered a record daily rise in cases of the new virus.
According to Reuters, Russia has reported 6,060 new cases in the previous 24 hours, bringing its nationwide tally to 42,853, though the official death toll of 361 remains relatively low compared with other countries with a similar number of cases.
In a video message to congratulate Christians on the Orthodox Easter, Putin said his country had all the necessary resources to do what was needed for people’s health and the economy.
