05 June 2020With Berlin "we have agreed" to reopen from 15 June, "I just contacted the Swiss Foreign Minister who assured me that they will reopen on the same date". This is "important news that should not cheer us up" because the work we are doing "country by country" is going on. So did Foreign Minister Luigi Di Maio from Berlin at the end of the meeting with his German counterpart Heiko Maas. "We opened on June 3rd - he added - we expect reciprocity from other European countries".

"We want to work so that all countries understand that it is safe to come to Italy. We will work with the utmost care to allow the country's real economy to be able to work this summer," said the Foreign Minister from Berlin. "We believe that June 15 may be the D-day of European tourism, that is, the borders are reopened. An exception is Austria with which we have continuous comparisons on the data - he explained - at European level the guard threshold for which opening to a country is 55-60 infections per 100 thousand inhabitants, Italy today is 3.7 infections per 100 thousand inhabitants ".
