[앵커]

President Trump, with virtually one day left of his retirement, says he is lifting restrictions on entry to Europe, Britain, Brazil and Ireland.

It is pointed out that President-elect Biden made the Corona 19 response a top priority and was planning a full-scale response.

U.S. President Trump has lifted entry restrictions related to COVID-19.

Target countries are EU 26 countries, UK, Ireland and Brazil.

China and Iran are excluded as unreliable.

The enforcement will start on the 26th.

This is the first day that it is the first day that foreign nationals from all over the world are required to submit a negative corona 19 confirmation or recovery certificate, and this measure plans to replace the entry ban.

Biden-elect was confronted that it is not yet time to lift restrictions.

He stressed that it plans to further strengthen public health measures related to international travel to ease the spread.

Earlier, the United States strengthened entry restrictions three times from March last year to the latest, but it has been criticized for poor post-entry measures such as quarantine and inspection.

Moreover, the number of corona 19 confirmed and dead is the highest in the world.

As countries such as Europe are also discovering mutant viruses as well as spreading out of control, there are concerns that the hasty lifting of the entry restrictions will worsen the situation.

Most of all, as Biden’s top priority is the response to Corona 19, it is highly likely that this action will not be implemented as it has been announced.

It is pointed out that President Trump did not know about these circumstances, so he made another Mongni.

The president has been passive in responding to the Corona 19 outbreak.

Until the end, only the personality of the individual was shown rather than the safety of the people.
