Bratislava – The foreign ministers of the Central 5, including Slovenia’s Anže Logar, discussed on Thursday possible relaxation of Covid-19 border restrictions during the summer season. They agreed that coordinating and informing each other about measures was necessary so that movement of people and business is not excessively restricted.
The ministers from Austria, the Czech Republic, Hungary, Slovakia and Slovenia discussed possibilities to conclude bilateral or regional agreements for crossing of borders and endorsed a European digital green certificate that would make this easier, the Slovenian Foreign Ministry said after the meeting in Bratislava.
Austria’s Alexander Schallenberg assessed that it was very important that life got back to normal as much as possible even before the summer, which was possible with the certificate and with vaccination, reported the Austrian press agency APA.
