(ANSA) - Rome, May 21 - European Affairs Minister Enzo
Amendola said after Austrian Chancellor Sebastian Kurz stated
that "we will not open our borders to those that are not in
control of the (coronavirus) situation" that unilateral
declarations on borders should be avoided.
"Shutting external borders to boost tourism in Austria does
not seem a sensational idea to me," Amendola said.
"We are working in coordination with the European Commission
for a management of borders that is coordinated on the basis of
epidemiological data.
"It's not time for adverts or unilateral proclamations, but
of intense work to unite Europe in this delicate phase".
