Paris: British decision to maintain quarantine steps that come from France and not because those from other European Union countries are discriminatory and not based on science, a French Minister said on Thursday.
England said on Thursday it would allow visitors who were vaccinated full of the EU and the United States to arrive without the need to quarantine from next week, but it would review the rules for travelers from France only at the end of next week.
“This is excessive, and frankly cannot be understood for health reasons …
it is not based on science and discriminatory against France,” said European Minister of France Clement Beaune at LCI TV.
“I hope it will be reviewed as soon as possible, it’s just common sense.” Beaune said France did not plan tit-for-tat steps “for now”.
The British government said he was maintaining quarantine rules for travelers from France because of the presence of beta variants there, but French officials said most cases came from La Reunion Island in the Indian Ocean.
