A war of vaccines is being carried out by the West against Russia in order to discredit the Russian-developed Sputnik vaccine and Russia’s efforts to curb the coronavirus pandemic.
Pro-Kremlin disinformation part of a narrative aimed at promoting Russia's Sputnik vaccine.
While, due to the pressing nature of the coronavirus crisis, there has undoubtedly been a race for safe and efficient vaccines against COVID-19, the narrative, according to which Russian-developed vaccines are attacked solely because they are developed in Russia, is false.

In addition, Western vaccine developers are repeatedly mocked in Russian state media.
