The production site of the Russian Sputnik V vaccine may appear in Germany, RIA Novosti reports. According to Kirill Dmitriev, who heads the Russian Direct Investment Fund (RDIF), negotiations on production are underway with many European countries.

The foundation has sent an application for approval of the drug by the European Medical Association, said Kirill Dmitriev. In the coming days, RDIF will receive a large French delegation, he added, and promised that work with the European Union would continue.
