EU ambassadors agreed to ease entry restrictions for non-EU visitors at a meeting on Wednesday (19 May).

According to draft documents seen by The Guardian, EU states can “take into account” the restrictions placed on their own citizens when visiting a third country, such as the UK.

The draft text states that EU countries can consider whether the government of a non-EU country is allowing its citizens entry without the need to quarantine or take PCR Covid tests.
