EU members are shouting "Every country for itself"
Pretty similar to the US states actually, other than US states can't close borders (but can enforce no travelling, which is basically a superset of closed borders)
- dgellow 7y agoNot really, no. They closed their borders but there is some level of collaboration at the moment, for example german states at the French border (e.g: Baden-Würtemberg) started to take in charge French patients who cannot be handled by the French healthcare system. Comparing the US and the EU doesn’t often make sense IMHO, they have different and incompatible institutions with different goals. In any case, what is happening now doesn’t define how countries will react after the crisis.
