Tehran, IRNA – Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi on Wednesday urged Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif to take the necessary measures to accelerate the imports of the COVID-19 vaccine.

Speaking during a cabinet session, the president referred to the coronavirus disease as the most immediate problem of the country.  

If all the country's capacities are not used to curb the pandemic, it will be difficult to rid the country of the current unfavorable situation, Raisi said.
