distance Austria And from Germany, France may now also adopt new restrictions on its borders with the United Kingdom due to the Indian alternative.
According to Bloomberg, the UK was trying to defend itself from the position France might take early Wednesday, arguing in its favor with much of the population who had already been vaccinated – about 70% of adults had already received at least one dose of the vaccine and 40% two doses.
But the new Indian alternative left room for no more than a review of previously imposed restrictions.
On Sunday, French Foreign Minister Jean-Yves Le Drian told RTL radio that the country was considering stricter measures for passengers arriving from the UK due to the alternative.
Mandatory quarantine or the need to justify the trip may now affect the already difficult operations of the Eurostar International Ltd. high-speed rail service. As well as the airlines linking the two countries.
Currently, people traveling from the UK to France do not need to justify the reason for the trip, but they must have a negative PCR test and complete a one-week isolation, even if they are vaccinated.
France plans to reopen international air travel to some countries by mid-June in coordination with the European Union.
