Australian Prime Minister Scott Morrison
Canberra, September 26
Australian Prime Minister Scott Morrison on Sunday told state and territory leaders that they owe it to the citizens to reopen domestic borders by Christmas.
Morrison told local media that there was no reason for state borders to remain closed once 80 per cent of adults are fully vaccinated against Covid-19, a milestone the country is expected to reach in the following months, reports Xinhua news agency.
"It's important that we move forward. We can't stay in second gear. We've got to get to top gear in living with the virus. “My message is more to Australians that what I’d like them to have for Christmas is their lives back,” he said. — IANS
