DHL's announcement

"Temporary restrictions on postal goods shipping to the U.S. for private and business customers"

I looked it up. Sending a regular smallish package (2 kg, 35 x 25 x 10 cm, think small laptop) from Germany to NYC is about 25 EUR, now only available for gifts under 100 EUR. Sending it as express, which is what businesses now apparently have to do, is about 80 EUR.
So does any other shipper (UPS? Fedex?) allow shipments from India?
Yes, but you won’t like the pricing.
Is this to help private shipping companies like FedEx and UPS? Sometimes you have to do something even if it’s expensive
Australia too
And New Zealand
As did Thailand
