\nRegional media also covered<\/a> the event and spotlighted via a vibrant and memorable title that Russia has helped Azerbaijan to fight the COVID-19 outbreak. Kremlin-controlled websites insist on the fact that fighting together the global pandemic will bring ex-USSR countries closer. Such a narrative has been promoted by Eurasia Daily that presents events inclusively from the separatist regions of Abkhazia, South Ossetia and Transnistria.<\/p>\n
