"I would like to express my satisfaction with the progress of the visa liberalisation process over the past 18 months. This is a major achievement and I would urge you to make rapid steps to continue in the same vein.
In the past few days, we have received reports from Sarajevo that the process of fulfilling the roadmap requirements is gathering pace, despite all the difficulties. This also holds true of areas as sensitive as police coordination between Banja Luka and Sarajevo.
I call on the Commission and the Council to monitor this progress on a continuing basis and to be responsive to it. The European Union must be capable of bringing its influence to bear on any political forces in Bosnia and Herzegovina which are seeking to sabotage this process. The citizens of Bosnia and Herzegovina must not be allowed to suffer because of the irresponsibility of their politicians and we have an obligation to help them in that regard. I call on the Commission to include Bosnia and Herzegovina within the visa-free zone as soon as possible."@en1
