Pressure mounts on India to allow foreign airlines to operate flights, US fires first salvo; EU holding talks

美国率先施压，欧盟启动谈判，要求允许外国航空公司恢复航班运营，印度面临的压力越来越大，

NEW DELHI: Pressure is mounting on India to allow schedule passenger flights by foreign airlines. America on Monday said that Air India will have to seek prior approval for operating flights to and from the US from July 22 as India “has impaired operating rights of US carriers and has engaged in discriminatory and restrictive practices with respect to US carriers’ services to and from India.”

新德里：外国航空公司要求恢复定期客运航班运营，印度面临的压力越来越大。美国周一表示，因为印度“损害了美国航空公司的运营权利，并对美国航空公司往返印度的航班采取歧视性和限制性措施”，从7月22日起，印度航空公司运营往返美国的航班必须事先获得批准。

European Union is also learnt to have initiated talks with India to allow its carriers to resume schedule flights to and from India.

据了解，欧盟也与印度启动了谈判，允许其航空公司恢复往返印度的航班。

Airlines of others countries and regions, especially the Gulf, are also eager to resume flights to the country. Private Indian carriers are also waiting for regular international flights to resume.

其他国家和地区的航空公司，特别是海湾地区的航空公司，也急于恢复往返印度的航班。印度私人航空公司也在等待定期国际航班恢复。

In response to the US action, the Indian aviation ministry said on Tuesday it is considering “travel bubbles” between India and the US, France, Germany and UK that have strong demand for travel.

作为对美国行动的回应，印度航空部周二表示，正在考虑印度恢复与旅行需求强劲的美国、法国、德国和英国之间的双边航班。

“We have received requests from concerned authorities in several countries including the US, France, Germany among others requesting that their air carriers be allowed to participate in the transportation of passengers along the line being conducted by Air India under Vande Bharat Mission (VBM). These requests are being examined. We have had one round of negotiations with US on June 15, 2020, with representatives of US department of transportation (DoT) and US Embassy on this issue. They were invited to submit precise proposals in this respect. A communication has now been received on June 19, 2020, detailing these requests,” the aviation ministry said on Tuesday.

航空部周二表示：“我们收到了几个国家有关当局的请求，包括美国、法国、德国等，要求允许他们的航空公司参与印度航空公司在“致敬印度任务”（撤侨包机）下包机航线上的乘客运输。目前正在审查这些请求。我们在2020年6月15日与美国交通部和美国大使馆的代表就这个问题进行了一轮谈判。请他们在这方面提出确切的建议。2020年6月19日，我们收到了一份详细说明这些要求的信函。”

“As we move from controlled and managed aviation evacuation of our citizens in different parts of the world and foreign nationals from India, we are now looking at the possibility of establishing bilateral arrangements. These evacuation flights which were primarily meant for evacuation of our citizens from all over the world are now increasingly carrying Indians and citizens of other countries out bound to countries where they are normally resident. As we contemplate further opening up in response to demands, we are looking at the prospect of establishing individual bilateral bubbles, India-US, India-France, India-Germany, India-UK. These are all destinations where demand for travel has not diminished. Final decisions pursuant to negotiations are expected to be taken soon,” the ministry statement added.

航空部的声明补充道：“我们正在有序撤离世界各地的印度公民以及在印度的外国公民，我们现在正在考虑建立双边安排的可能性。这些撤离航班主要是为了从世界各地撤离印度公民，现在越来越多的印度人和其他国家的公民被送往他们的常住国家。我们考虑进一步开放以回应要求，我们正在考虑建立针对特定国家的双边航班联系，如印度-美国、印度-法国、印度-德国、印度-英国。这些都是旅游需求没有减少的目的地。预期不久将根据谈判作出最后决定。”

Feku, aka Surrender Modi, has failed on each and every front. India/Indians are being bullied by superpowers at home and abroad. Unfortunately, Feku is still in denial mode, be it intrusion, community spread of coronavirus, unemployment, negative GDP growth rates. Even a small countries like Nepal begin to take advantage of our weak and horrific leadership.

“投降派莫迪”在各个方面都失败了。在国内外印度都被超级大国欺负。不幸的是，无论是对于的入侵、新冠病毒的社区传播、高失业率、GDP负增长，莫迪一概否认。我们的领导人软弱胆小，甚至像尼泊尔这样的小国也开始威胁我们了。
