Chancellor Sebastian Kurz (ÖVP) wants to keep both schools and ski areas open in Corona’s winter. “We have to try to lead as normal a life as possible in all areas of our life,” Kurz emphasized on Tuesday during his first bilateral visit abroad since the crown crisis in Ljubljana. “Winter tourism and skiing will be possible,” he announced.

“Don’t play against each other”

When asked by the APA if ski areas should not be closed immediately so that schools can remain open for a few more days in the fall, the chancellor said: “I would not like to confront schools and companies.”

The school works “differently” this year, but it is “important that it happens.” The procedure introduced in schools is “a burden for many children and parents.” But it has the “objective that the schools remain open and that a new closure does not have to take place.”
