Euronews-Ukraine Visa free travel

7 years ago

On 11/26/2016 Euronews is reporting that all EU members have agreed to grant visa free travel to Ukraine citizens on a short term basis. But, no date at which this will take effect has been set. Euronews states that concerns over illegial immigration into the EU by Ukraine citizens could cause an immediate shutdown of this visa free travel process for Ukraine, if this process is abused!!

I must admit I was surprised when I read this article this morning. With many current EU countries having radical swings in their current elections as a result of Syrian refuges flooding into Europe and all the terrorist attacks that have followed.

Moldova and Bulgaria in the last month just voted out pro EU parties as their leaders, as a result of immigration policies. Hungry is taking the EU to international court to try and stop forced EU immigration policies on its member states.

How do you think visa free travel will effect Ukraine if at all, in the first few years, if this goes thru!!
