It could refer to people who were on holiday in Croatia, not necessarily to ethnic croats. They may be afraid of coronavirus, amount of "active cases" in Croatia is growing. Many people in Austria go to Croatia for holiday, regardless of ethnicity.

Did you use Magyar privilege?

I know...half of Austria vacations here. But in Graz live tons of Croats.
Interesting how they never wrote "returnees from Spain/Italy/Greece etc not welcome"

xD

Styrians are very Slavophobic.

Yeah, I searched the German text in the OP in Google News to try to find article it came from to read the context. Although I didn't find it, I instead got articles about a travel warning for Croatia in regards to the corona epidemic. They're gonna be doing it with too according to the article.

If an Austrian does dislike Croats, its likely just gonna be on an individualistic level and not some sort of widespread sentiment.

[Kyp]

I think it's meant for everyone who visited Croatia (Croatians and Austrians included)

[Cristiano viejo]

The owner is a Serbian immigrant in Austria that visits Apricity and sees you calling Gypsies to them, so what do you expect??

Yeah. But I read comments on one newspapers, people were really offended xD
They think they'd never write such thing to people returning from some bigger, richer country or from MENA (it's not PC), so Slavs are their usual victims.

Yes. People want to avoid a Lockdown II. but its certainly not the most polite way of handling such things

[Jana]

Hungarian minister of foreign affairs visited my Island few days ago...man knows what's the best :D
I told Stears how privilegded he is to vacation there because Szijarto has money to go wherever he pleases and he came here. Hehe.

[The Lawspeaker]

It refers to Austrians who just came back from Croatia. You know: the place fucked up by Covid. German, as a language, allows for compound words so the English translation says: "not for those returning from Croatia"). So it has nothing to do with Croats as why would Croats return to Austria from Croatia ?

[Universe]

Why did they pick on Croats specifically of all immgrant groups though? If it's because of xenophobia

It also refers to huge Croatian immigrant community in Austria who went home for summer.

It returns to anyone returning from Croatia. You need to brush up on your German. Kroatien-Rückkehrer. It doesn't say Kroaten (Croats) but Kroatien (Croatia). Those returning from Croatia. Not Croats. Or it would simply have said: Nicht für Kroaten (Not for Croats). But it says: Nicht für Kroatien-Rückkehrer. (Not for those returning from Croatia).

Why would one put a dot on a capital I letter though? The restaurant must be owned by a Turk xD

Das Raccistt Germanic devils! Shame on you!

[The Lawspeaker]

And I think the owner is right here: until they have been cleared by Austrian authorities and can prove it, they are (with the cases in Croatia rising steadily) a potential health risk and no owner would want his place closed down because people got infected there.

to work?

But I agree with you that its mostly meant for Austrians in general returning.

In fact - my text would have been much harsher: Nicht für Ausländer und Ausland-Rückkehrer. Until they have been cleared by the authorities and can prove it.

Nah, blame the Israeli Jews for that. They make Afrikaners look pansy in comparison. It's like comparing a BB gun to a nuclear warhead.

Woah, that's cruel :mad:

If she was here, she probably wouldn't be able to leave the country. This is why we use visas that last as long as possible: for every eventuality.

Should show us all what kind of character you actually are. Even if you didn't know you were infected, and someone ended up dying because of you, there will be repercussions for you after you croak yourself.

People have a responsibility to stay in present position (and that includes foreigners trapped here at the moment of outbreak and they should be cared for for the duration of the epidemic and barred from further travel) and, in case they may be infected without knowing it, not spreading it by travelling. Either inside the country or abroad.

[Seya]

but Croatia doesn't even have many infected. Austria has about the same number. i don't see the problem. there are other countries in europe with my much higher risk. it they think it's such a big problem, then they should impose restrictions.

[Insuperable]

1. It doesn't seem xenophobic.
2. Who cares.
