President-elect Joe Biden immediately put the brakes on when US President Donald Trump tried to ease restrictions on foreigners’ entry.
According to CNBC, a US economic broadcaster on the 18th (local time), President Trump announced that he would lift entry restrictions for travelers departing from the European Union (EU), the UK, and Brazil, allowing entry from the 26th. This is because the US has decided that entry restrictions are no longer necessary because the US has required all inbound travelers 2 years of age or older to submit a negative Corona 19 test or certificate of cure received within 3 days from the 26th. However, China and Iran excluded this measure because they were not cooperative with the quarantine measures.

Biden-elect immediately confronted him saying he would not lift entry restrictions. “Now is not the time to lift restrictions on overseas travel,” said Zen Saki, a spokesman for the White House, on Twitter. He added, “We will strengthen public health measures surrounding overseas travel to further contain the spread of Corona 19.”
It is pointed out that this conflict is the result of a conflict in the process of takeover, beyond the simple difference of opinions between the two sides over measures to respond to the novel coronavirus infection (Corona 19). In particular, the New York Times (NYT) pointed out the lack of communication between the two sides, saying, “Usually, the leaders who are about to retire do not implement new measures without consultation with the next leader.” The AFP news agency also reported that the conflict in the period of regime change is well revealed in the swift denial of President-elect Biden and President Trump.
