you know even still the operator were hearing about severe shortages of vaccines in fact and people wondering how is that india one of the world's biggest suppliers of vaccines in this situation. don't you see or like many of the states in the media are completely. backseats now if you don't have enough to get this new theories of the vaccine. you can get back to me to know india has the once manufacturing vaccines that simply need to see to institute. that here critical bill along with another a maximization company during this next nation program but it seems that in this underestimating. to the end of the. dance and he lacks the nation's islam it's not. 60 situation doing just. the country.

tourists because their economy relies on tourism so and i think that the european commission is now coming forward with this proposal because they know that many member states are already planning on reopening reopening their tourism ok so they're looking at vaccinated visitors from countries that have the virus under control how does this work in practice though alexandra well at the moment there are only 5 countries that are on the green list allowing non-essential travel to the european union countries such as singapore for example or new zealand and the european commission is suggesting that more countries would local with 19 and think sions infection rates could be added to this list of debt is of course something that the member states needs to discuss and to agree upon and the average not to question is what kind of certificate what kind of documents they need to

travels travelers will would need to present at the border to be able to cross the border that is also something that still needs to be discussed and this is really urgent for a lot of countries in the center who get their revenue from tourism a lot of a lot of their g.d.p. a lot of their condom use depend on it who's been hit the hardest. well you just mentioned italy friends greece of course is a very good at some example of how countries are suffering tourism and greece generates a 5th of the country's g.d.p. and one in the 5 jobs so you can imagine how they're hoping to reopen their tourism and actually they're already planning to do so in mid may brussels bureau chief alexandra for naaman thank you so much.
