European Union does not approve of the fact that the U.S. decision on the introduction of the travel ban was made unilaterally and without consultation, said in a joint statement President of the European Union Charles Michel and the head of the European Commission Ursula von der Leyen.
"the Coronavirus is a global crisis which is not confined to any continent and requires cooperation, not unilateral action. The European Union has taken strong measures to limit the spread of the virus," - said in a statement.
President of the United States Donald trump in his address to the nation announced the decision to ban travel from Europe to the country from March 13. According to the President of the United States, the restrictions also will concern transportation.
According to trump, the European Union has not coped with the task of introducing preventive measures and restrictions in respect of passenger traffic with China and other foci of infection by the coronavirus.
