MOSCOW (Sputnik) - Russia has transferred 500 domestically made monkeypox test kits to Myanmar as part of the official visit of the top Russian diplomat, Sergey Lavrov, the Russian Foreign Ministry said on Wednesday.

"During the visit, 500 sets of Russian tests for diagnosing monkeypox were transferred to Myanmar as humanitarian aid," the ministry said in a statement.

The ministry added that Lavrov held constructive and friendly talks with senior officials, traditional for the relations between the two countries.
