Key points
- The sudden closure of borders has severely impacted the lives and livelihoods of people living and working in border regions.
- Uncoordinated travel restrictions have caused significant damage to the European single market and sectors such as tourism and science.
- Member States should focus on coordinated health measures like testing and contact tracing instead of reintroducing internal border controls.
- Movement restrictions should be flexible and based on the specific health situation in different regions rather than national borders.
