In an government order, Trump mentioned he’s eradicating the restrictions relevant to the European Union, the United Kingdom, the Republic of Ireland, and Brazil, whereas leaving in place the restrictions relevant to China and Iran.
A call on this regard, he mentioned, is being taken after the January 12 directive of the Centres for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) requiring proof of a damaging COVID-19 check or documentation of getting recovered from COVID-19 for all air passengers arriving from a international nation to the United States.
Trump mentioned that European Union, Britain, Ireland and Brazil will cooperate with the US within the implementation of CDC’s January 12, 2021, order and that checks administered there’ll yield correct outcomes.
However, the identical can’t be mentioned of China and Iran. “Those jurisdictions’ responses to the pandemic, their lack of transparency, and their lack of cooperation with the United States thus far in combatting the pandemic, cast doubt on their cooperation in implementing CDC’s January 12, 2021, order,” Trump mentioned.
The earlier journey restrictions had been introduced on March 14 and May 24 of final yr.
