EU to assess visa liberalisation implementation in Western Balkans next month
19/05/2011
SKOPJE, Macedonia -- EU Representative to Macedonia Peter Sorensen said on Wednesday (May 18th) that the European Commission's assessment of implementing the visa-liberalisation regime in the region will become clear in June. He was commenting on speculation that the visa-free regime could be suspended because of the influx of asylum applicants, mainly from Macedonia and Serbia. Both were included in the so-called Schengen White List in late 2009. (MIA, Utrinski Vesnik - 18/05/11)
