  • Croatia will re-instate mandatory 14-day self-isolation for travellers from Bosnia, Kosovo, Serbia and North Macedonia due to an increase of coronavirus infections in the Balkans, the government said Wednesday. The measure, which takes effect at midnight (2200 GMT), will not apply to travellers who are only transiting through Croatia, Interior Minister Davor Bozinovic told reporters. Home to 4.2 million people, Croatia has largely kept its coronavirus outbreak in check, limiting deaths to around 100 and known infections to slightly over 2,300. But after registering only a few or no cases of the disease daily since mid-May, for the past week it has seen a rise up of to 30 infections a day. The four Balkan nations have a higher rate of infections since early June, with up to nearly 200 infections daily in North Macedonia. In late May Croatia reopened its borders without restrictions to citizens from ten European Union countries -- Austria, the Czech Republic, Estonia, Germany, Hungary, Latvia, Lithuania, Poland, Slovakia and Slovenia -- that have had similarly successful results in containing the virus. Zagreb made the move to salvage its key tourism industry hit by the pandemic. Croatia and the entire region came under global spotlight after a Balkan tennis tournament spread the infections and its organiser Novak Djokovic, world number one, tested positive. Apart from Djokovic, Grigor Dimitrov, Borna Coric and Viktor Troicki have all tested positive after participating in the Croatia leg of the event last weekend. Critics blamed the organisers and health authorities for weak enforcement of social distance at the matches. Prime Minister Andrej Plenkovic, who attended the event in Zadar last Saturday and patted Djokovic on the shoulder, has also come under fire for not going into self-isolation. Plenkovic tested negative but opposition critics say he is giving a bad example and still endangering the health of citizens by touring the country ahead of elections on July 5. ljv/wai
