June 10, 2020 — The head of the National Civil Protection Headquarters and Interior Minister Davor Bozinovic said about 160,000 tourists have submitted paperwork to enter the country, alongside the 65,000 already in Croatia.
“At the moment, Croatia is de facto the only one in the EU with tourism,” Božinović said in an interview with RTL. “We have crowds at the borders. First, they all receive clear warnings at border crossings. As far as local communities are concerned, these services are not accidentally called emergency services. They are always ready to react.”
The minister described how the epidemiological measures would work over the summer, for example, if there were too many crowds on the beaches.
“The Croatian Institute of Public Health prepared instructions for both beach concessionaires and tourist workers,” Bozinovic said.
He said that everyone who deals with tourism has clear instructions that should be followed.
“I am sure that it is in everyone’s interest to adhere to them as much as possible and that is a guarantee that we will be as successful this season as we have been successful in the last three months,” he concluded.
