Finance Minister says suspension of flights with Italy is being considered

According to Finance Minister Ivane Machavariani, the issue of suspending flights with Italy is being considered because of the coronavirus, but the decision has not been made yet.

As Machavariani pointed out, if the country wants to prevent the spread of coronavirus as much as possible, flights should be banned.

“I will not hide, this is a matter of consideration, but no decision has been made yet. Italy is a relatively high-risk area, though we should be aware that this will be a step towards risk reduction, but risks may come from other directions. If the country wants to prevent the spread of coronavirus as much as possible, flights should be banned”, the Minister said.
