Berlin: Germany will send oxygen and medicines to India to help it tackle the COVID-19 pandemic that has put a burden on the health infrastructure of the country, informed German Foreign Minister Heiko Maas on Monday. “[W]e are now using all the levers in the federal government and in discussions with businesses to provide assistance as soon as possible, for example, with oxygen and medicines,” Maas told Rheinische Post, as quoted by Sputnik. The minister also recalled that Germany has banned the entry of all travelers from India, except German citizens, starting Monday. “The second wave is currently rolling over India with unprecedented power… It was right that we acted quickly to stop the entry of the new mutation into Germany,” Maas added.
