Australia is no hurry to reopen its international borders and risk the country's nearly coronavirus-free lifestyle, Prime Minister Scott Morrison has said.
Australia closed its borders to all non-citizens and non-residents in March 2020 and has been permitting only limited international arrivals in recent months, mainly its citizens returning from abroad.
“Australia is in no hurry to open those borders, I assure you,” Morrison said at a televised briefing.
“I will not be putting at risk the way we are living in this country which is so different to the rest of the world today.”
