“Tentatively, it’s late in April and between May 3 and 8,” he said.
“Most likely, we will extend the quarantine based on these estimates. But we plan to ease some activities in two or three spheres this week,” he added.
As UNIAN reported earlier, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky earlier announced certain quarantine restrictions might be eased after April 24 if the situation with COVID-19 in the country does not worsen significantly.
