European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen, in an interview with German press RND, urged the United States to lift the travel ban on EU travelers.

Pressure is mounting on President Biden to lift the travel ban put in place by the Trump administration in March 2020 at the start of the Covid-19 pandemic. The EU added the US to its list of safe countries in June and the UK has allowed vaccinated Americans to enter the country since August 2.

The widespread increase in the Delta variant is why the White House has yet to give a date for reopening travel with the EU or the UK. for the continued spread of infections, especially in states with low vaccination rates.

The Washington Post on Tuesday supported the reopening of international travel for fully vaccinated people and in London, the Financial Times cited scientists who believed border restrictions would not prevent variants from entering the country. arrived in the United States again when its borders were closed. Scientists noted, as cited in the FT, that maintaining long-term border controls or reducing travel is likely to be costly, and only delay rather than prevent importation.

As reported by Politico, von der Leyen said that “the epidemiological situation in the US and the EU today is very similar. We need to resolve the issue as quickly as possible and are in contact with our American friends. It shouldn’t last for weeks.

In response to the UK lifting of the travel ban on US travelers, the UK government is now under renewed pressure to push Americans to reopen travel across the Atlantic. Stuart Procter, COO of Stafford, a London luxury hotel that relies heavily on American tourists, said all is well for us not to quarantine, which is fine, but we need the America say people can go to UK

John Holland-Kaye, chief executive of Heathrows, also urged the government on Tuesday to allow cheaper lateral flow testing for travel (instead of lab PCR testing) and to work with the United States (and other countries) to ease the remaining travel restrictions.
