A big show was made of that. But it didn't last long. British people have then been barred from entering the US, too. Only the orange one didn't tout it as loudly.

When I read your first sentence I thought it was going to say that Trump approved that because the British people are about as white Anglo-Saxon Protestant as you can get and they speak English. So, unlike people from "shithole countries," they're OK. But I guess the other explanation is more timely.

Is your health--indeed, your life--worth a visit to Lichtenstein? I'm not saying that in an attempt to be funny. Right now I'm very reluctant to travel anywhere in the U.S., even here in the Northeast, other than to visit my father.

My thought was that if Americans were to enter another country, we'd probably be more dangerous to them than they to us.

That's probably true.
It would just be like The Great Orange Satan not to realize how much immigration Britain has had from the Commonwealth countries.

A much nicer than than I would've given him! LOL
Thanks for the clarification, Chrissi! I tried to find other sources for the story, but at that time I couldn't, and since I don't have a NYT subscription, I couldn't read the full story.

Newest developments re border openings:
In accordance with the EU regulations, citizens of the following countries can now visit Germany again:
Australia, Georgia (country, not US state), Japan, Canada, New Zealand, South Korea, Thailand, Tunisia, Uruguay, China.
For China, South Korea and Japan there's a condition however: the opening of EU borders to those three countries must be mutual. If they stay closed, they can't come here either.
