If the ambassadors of the member states to the EU reach an agreement on Friday, the draft could be adopted by the ministers responsible for European affairs at their meeting in Luxembourg on Tuesday.

He also said the proposal would not impose, among other things, travel restrictions on travelers between member states in regions marked in green with a low infection rate.
