Germany amends export ban on medical protective materials

Since the broke out of epidemic in Europe, protective supplies such as masks have become scarce.. The German government decided earlier this month to stop exporting masks, gloves, and protective clothing to foreign countries, and then "intercepted" 240,000 protective masks imported by Swiss companies, triggering friction between the two countries. This news has also been on the hot search of major media platforms. 

On the 14th, Germany made amendments to its "export ban" under pressure from the European Union. The German side announced that after consensus with the European Commission, Germany will amend the "export ban" issued earlier this month to allow the export of medical protective materials including masks, gloves, goggles, protective clothing and protective masks.
