"Today’s vote clears the way for the belated but very welcome inclusion of Bosnia and Albania in the EU’s visa-free travel scheme. It will clearly give a boost to their citizens, giving them the same rights and privileges as their neighbours. The Council should now move swiftly to approve their inclusion. However, we are concerned about the reluctance of some Member States, notably France, to do so. Bosnia’s and Albania’s compliance with the EU criteria for lifting the visa requirement is actually better now than Serbia’s and Macedonia’s at the time they got visa-free travel one year ago. If the Council fails to follow the position of the European Parliament and European Commission, it would be a completely wrong signal to send to the citizens of Bosnia and Albania."@en1
