12:17 pm
concern is that was so much multiplication of the virus, as you say, is a huge surge of infections in the chinese population. that gives the virus the opportunity to mutate. and it could possibly mutate into a new variance, a variant that could evade the protection of our current vaccines and therapeutics . and because the chinese government is not providing the world's scientific community, the genetic information about the viruses currently circulating in china. the thought is, we had best test everyone to make sure that they're negative before they come to this part of the world. that will bias a little time in the event that there is a new variance of concern that is emerging in china. please understand this is not to just keep cases of cove it out. that's right. that's
12:18 pm
like asking somebody not to pour a glass of water into your swimming pool. we have plenty of coven here. the concern is about new variance. if the chinese government provided information on the genetics of these variants that are now circulating in china, i think there would be less concern around the world. but once again, they are withholding scientific information. croatia has adopted the euro as of sunday johnny. the 1st it comes nearly 10 years off, it joined the european union. it also becomes part of the sanctions are meeting, unrestricted, travel to other member nations. so i think becca has more from soccer. it's not just a new year. it's also a whole new currency. and here crecia feelings are mixed seems every, every company who took on the euro standard of leaving went down, i think is going to be the same increase. so i'm not happy because i think
12:19 pm
everything will be more expensive. to be honest. i don't really care about that much, so i think it's probably a natural transition and that's fine as me when it comes to business imports, exports, and the tourism. the crecia is hugely reliant on many say it's a benefit. more than half of our external trades is done with the euro zone countries and approximately 2 thirds of the tourist overnight stays a done by the tourist who are coming from the euro area. so for us, it's a huge, it's important for our tourism, for our economy. jeweler, mario not guy agrees, i think it will be easier to, to work and many levels and we don't lose money on conversions. the challenge in the short term, however, is that for the next 2 weeks, the local currency can still be used to buy, but the change must be in euro's. we will be a little exchange,
12:20 pm
but though i will push more kind of payment and just to slowly transition i think i hope the card payment will work would if that breaks out, then we are the 1st day of 2023 has another 1st 2 as the euro currently takes over your career is also entering the shank and zone. it's the 1st time a country adopt both on the same day. and that means that from now on, if you're entering or exiting from the shank zone, no more identity or board of trucks. most of creation is foreign visitors or european said a lot, definitely. and borders and border control or sunday free movement and leveraging. yes. for now, it's the new euro, that is one of the main subjects of conversation. and prices will continue to be displayed in both currencies as the people navigate their way through the transition. many as austell, i'm sorry we are losing the kona,
12:21 pm
but nobody as the people, i feel sorry because i think a country which has its own currency maintains its identity and historical values. not just an economic and political change, but for many here. the loss of a small sense of creation identity, even if it comes with benefits. stephanie decker, al jazeera zagreb. there's been a secondary protest in bolivia, santa cruz region, after the arrest of a right wing opposition leader police were out in force after friday, the bottom confrontation, the supporters of jail. governor lewis and under camacho, he was arrested on thursday and placed in pre trial detention. camacho denied accusations of leading a coon during protest in 2019 force, then president, even rogers from power. one claudio legend is a physical analyst. he says, support for camacho has grown beyond his stronghold in santa cruz. 6 months ago. nobody of the rest of the provinces would be backing
