Some members of López Obrador's Morena party have publicly expressed affection for Russia even after the invasion, and López Obrador has frequently criticized the United States for sending arms to Ukraine.and intends to use it as a booster shot later this year, along with Cuba's Abdala vaccine., as a booster for new variants, because all of them were designed in 2020 to combat variants circulating at the time.
