Italian Prime Minister Giuseppe Conte has criticized the European Union's proposed tourism plan that could allow special so-called green corridors between countries within the bloc, and threatened this could cause Italy to leave the EU.

The suggested tourism corridors would allow certain countries with low or sharply declining Covid-19 infection rates to open up to a select few destinations until borders are fully reopened.

"[Tourism] cannot be conditioned by bilateral agreements or we will be out of the European Union, we will never permit it”, he added, underlining that tourism represents up to 13% of Italian GDP. Conte said he has told the European Commission President, Ursula von der Leyen, that these"corridors" would mean the"destruction" of the EU's single market.
