Things are about to get interesting. If Sputnik V is not included in the list or if there is no agreement on at least a formal presence of approved vaccines in Russia, every instance of traveling abroad will provoke the ire of those who can’t leave, and all those who manage to will become magnets for public resentment, which is politically very bad. I think they’ll either succeed in getting it included, or they’ll figure out a way to administer those Pfizer or Moderna vaccines in Russia. It might be expensive, or through some clever scheduling, but there will be at least some way to justify the elite’s travel abroad.
