Albania will be sealing its land, sea and air borders with Greece, effective Saturday night at 10pm, as the country’s PM Edi Rama announced via Facebook. The measure was taken in an effort to halt the spread of the coronavirus to Albania.

It is still unclear what will happen with the Albanian nationals who travelled to Greece recently and returned to Albania, as well as those who permanently reside in Greece.
