EU: Visas to be re-introduced for Western Balkan countries
01 May 2011
EU:
Visas to be re-introduced for Western Balkan countries (euractiv, link): "
The European Commission said it will propose tomorrow (24 May) to reintroduce visas for Western Balkan countries whose citizens abuse the system. The measure will punish countries such as Serbia and Macedonia for failing to stop their citizens from taking advantage of visa-free travel rights to request asylum once they reach one of the EU's 27 member states."
