JERUSALEM (Reuters) – Israel and Britain are exploring the possibility of opening a \u201cgreen travel corridor\u201d between them, Israel\u2019s Foreign Ministry said on Tuesday, citing the success of the two countries\u2019 vaccination drives.<\/p>\n

The issue was discussed at a meeting between Foreign Minister Gabi Ashkenazi and British Cabinet Office Minister Michael Gove in Jerusalem, an Israeli statement said.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe will promote, together with the UK, mutual recognition of vaccines in order to allow tourists and business people from both countries to safely return to their routines,\u201d the statement quoted Ashkenazi as saying.<\/p>\n

Israel and Britain had made \u201cgreat progress\u201d in their vaccination campaigns, opening the \u201cpossibility of creating a green travel corridor\u201d, the ministry said.<\/p>\n

It gave no timeline for implementing such a measure, which apparently would apply only to vaccinated travellers.<\/p>\n

Israel said last week it will start allowing the limited entry of vaccinated tourist groups as of May 23.<\/p>\n

The return of foreigners after Israel had closed its borders at the outset of the pandemic in March 2020 would boost the country\u2019s economy, which contracted 2.5% in 2020, and battered tourism sector.<\/p>\n

Britain, which has the world\u2019s fifth-worst official COVID-19 death toll, has vaccinated 32.9 million people with a first dose.<\/p>\n

About 81% of Israel\u2019s citizens or residents over 16 – the age group eligible for the Pfizer \/BioNTech vaccine in the country – have received both doses, and infections and hospitalisations are down sharply.<\/p>\n
