The Russian Government built special tunnels to protect President Vladimir Putin from the coronavirus at home and at work, Putin's spokesman said today.
Reports about tunnels where anyone passing through gets sprayed with germ-killing antiseptics appeared in Russian media.
Putin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said that one tunnel was installed at the President's home outside Moscow and two at the Kremlin.
"When it comes to the head of the state, additional precautionary measures are justified," Peskov said, adding that the tunnels were put in when Russia's coronavirus "was in full swing."
