Russia's military is sending medical aid to Italy
Russia's military is sending medical aid to Italy to help in its fight against the coronavirus epidemic, including disinfection vehicles and military virologists.
Russia's defense ministry in a statement announced military transport planes will be delivering eight mobile brigades of military medics, special disinfection vehicles and other medical equipment to Italy, starting from Sunday.
It followed a phone conversation between president Vladimir Putin and Italy's prime minister Giuseppe Conte, during which Putin offered help.
The move obviously highlights the EU's relative failure so far to aid Italy in the epidemic and follows China sending a plane-load of medics to help. The authoritarian governments see this as a diplomatic and PR opportunity. Italy was already one of the friendliest countries to Russia in the EU and this obviously won't go unremembered.
