“It is obvious that we want to return to partial normality,” he said, noting the government’s desire to support tourism and the economy but with respect for medical protocols and the health criteria set by the scientists, in the same way, that Greece has operated up until now that, based on the results, is considered successful.
Referring to the issue of Serbia, Kikilias said that “as soon as we saw an increase in cases we immediately closed our borders and our scientists will decide when it is safe to reopen our borders with our friend and neighbor Serbia.
