Belgium’s Foreign Minister Sophie Wilmes was also infected with the corona virus. “The result of my Covid test is positive,” the French-speaking liberal politician announced on Saturday on the short message service Twitter. The infection may have run in the family, Wilmes said. Belgian Foreign Minister and Foreign Minister Alexander Schallenberg (ÖVP) participated in the EU Council of Foreign Ministers in Luxembourg last Monday.
Schallenberg had tested positive for the corona virus on Friday afternoon. His spokesman expressed suspicions on Saturday that the foreign minister may have been infected at the Luxembourg Foreign Affairs Council. Already due to the large number of people from all EU countries meeting at the council, the suspicion is obvious, the spokeswoman told the APA. Only the Austrian delegation consisted of nine people.
