Lavrov: Russia Ready to Provide Experts to Assist in Fight Against Ebola Epidemic




– Russia is ready to send its experts to Sierra-Leone to assist in the fight against the Ebola virus epidemic, Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov told reporters Friday.
"Russia will make an active contribution to the efforts of the world community. We have already sent appropriate aid [and] doctors to Guinea. We are getting ready to do the same for Sierra-Leone," Lavrov noted, speaking on the sidelines of the UN General Assembly meeting in New York.
The worst Ebola outbreak in history started in February in Guinea and quickly spread to Liberia, Sierra Leone, Senegal and Nigeria. Nigeria has since then contained the virus while leaving the rest of the countries to battle the virus.
