The state of emergency has been announced until May 13, so it will not be necessary to continue, but that does not mean that all measures will be eliminated because we are very far in Europe and in the world, we cannot say that we have overcome the coronavirus. This was reported on Channel 3 by Ekaterina Zaharieva, Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Foreign Affairs.
“You know that the phasing out of the measures has begun, but that does not mean they will disappear entirely.” Social distance will have to be respected for a long time, more than two meters, as well as travel restrictions, even in the European Union, with masks inside, “said the deputy prime minister.
“All the headquarters staff has had a lot of weight, they will also continue to work, there will be information, they will continue to report.” Let us respect the people who saved our lives, “Zaharieva urged.
“We are discussing a gradual loosening of the transition measures in neighboring countries. Sofia airport is one of the few airports that operate, not at full capacity, but it works,” he said.
The free movement of people in the EU does not work. We have done our best and at least the products move through the green corridors. At the beginning of the crisis, the situation with our compatriots abroad who wanted to go home was very difficult. There were many Bulgarians in distress. The first severe waves passed and the situation returned to normal. Now we also have the reverse wave: the Bulgarians returned, mostly from EU countries, who want to return to their home countries. Residents in these countries will have no trouble getting there, the deputy prime minister explained.
“During the week, I spoke to Ambassador Hero Mustafa. She informed me that the summer student teams in the United States have not been canceled at this time. They are postponed until May 12. We have to wait until May 12. and see if they will be canceled. If someone gets a visa, we can’t stop them from traveling. My recommendation, since February, is not to travel without it being necessary. I was surprised by the number of people who went on excursions, even after the state of emergency. Next week we will have another conversation with Ambassador Hero Mustafa and continue with the issue of visa exemption for Bulgarian citizens, “said the deputy prime minister.
