Greece is aiming to reopen its borders by mid-May in a boost for UK holidaymakers. Tourism minister Haris Theoharis said the country hopes to welcome foreign tourists from May 14, depending on the status of the coronavirus pandemic. People living in England could be permitted to take foreign holidays from May 17 under Boris Johnson’s road map for easing coronavirus restrictions. Greece is one of the most popular summer destinations for UK holidaymakers. British nationals usually make more than three million visits to the country each year, according to the Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office.
