lpv:translated text	"Mr President, a group of six Member States recently called on the European Commission to reintroduce compulsory visas for the Balkan countries, citing false applications for asylum as the reason. I think that this request is unfounded and wrong from two points of view: firstly, abuse of the European asylum system is possible only because of the system’s internal weakness. Instead of limiting freedom of movement, we should speed up the adoption and implementation of the new asylum package. Secondly, this solution would be identical to that adopted by Canada three years ago, when it reimposed visas for citizens of the Czech Republic. At the time, all the EU countries criticised the Canadian Government, and now they are simply following its example. This duplicitous behaviour by the EU is shameful and contrary to European values. Citizens of the Balkan countries should be able to travel freely in the EU, just as citizens of the Czech Republic, Romania and Bulgaria should be able to travel freely in Canada or the United States. The Commission should not comply with this request."@en1
