France wants to discourage its citizens from traveling to ski resorts abroad during Christmas. If there are countries that keep their ski resorts open, control measures will be implemented to prevent the French from going to these areas, said French President Emmanuel Macron (42). He is sitting! Because Switzerland wants to keep its ski areas open during the holidays.
Macron said after his meeting with Belgian Prime Minister Alexander de Croo in Paris: “So yes, we will have restrictive and dissuasive measures.” These should be coordinated in the next few days.

Macron asked for European coordination on the issue of opening the ski areas. For days, the alpine countries of Europe have been arguing about closing winter sports businesses to prevent the corona virus from spreading again, for example among tourists. While Germany and Italy advocate opening only after the New Year, Austria and Switzerland do not want to close their ski areas, mostly for economic reasons.
French Prime Minister Jean Castex (55) said last week that the ski lifts of France’s ski resorts should remain closed. This sparked violent protests in the country’s ski resorts. In Les Deux Alpes, for example, hundreds of seasonal workers took to the streets. They are afraid that the winter season will completely fall into the water.
