At the other end of the line, Christophe Darbellay is still amazed. The president of the Valais Council of State continues to insist that the Belgian decision to place his canton and those of Geneva and Vaud on the list of regions in Europe where tourist travel is no longer authorized is “shocking and incomprehensible”. Despite numerous protests from the cantons concerned, the situation has not changed, more than 48 hours after the announcement of the authorities of the Plat Pays. But that could change quickly.
The Belgian expert group responsible for making these decisions “will carry out a new assessment of the Covid-19 categorization of the cantons concerned on Tuesday”. The promise was made by Philippe Goffin, the Belgian Minister of Foreign Affairs, to his Swiss counterpart, Ignazio Cassis, this Monday during a telephone interview, indicates the Federal Department of Foreign Affairs (FDFA).
