Israel, Greece sign travel deal for COVID-19 vaccinated citizens

Israel and Greece have agreed a tourism deal that will allow coronavirus-vaccinated citizens of the two countries to travel between them without limitations.

Greek Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis said the agreement “will allow us … to be able to offer Israeli tourists the opportunity to spend their holidays in Greece without any restrictions” at a joint press conference with his Israeli counterpart, Benjamin Netanyahu.

This would go into effect once “a significant percentage of the population is vaccinated” and travel restrictions are lifted, Mr Mitsotakis said.
