MOSCOW - President Vladimir Putin said on Thursday he hoped Russia would defeat the coronavirus in two to three months if it imposed tough measures, as authorities suspended international flights, ordered most shops in the capital to shut and halted some church services.

Although the case load is still much lower than in many European countries, the mayor of Moscow told Mr Putin on Tuesday that the real scale of the problem in the capital far exceeded official figures. Addressing a businessman who said it might take two to three months for normal conditions to return, Mr Putin added:"But when we finally get out of this situation, and we definitely will get out of it... I hope that will be even sooner than what you said."
