AS IT IS 2016-04-22 EU Proposed Visa-Free Travel for Ukrainians 欧盟考虑向乌克兰人提供免签证旅行
The European Union is considering a proposal to offer visa-free travel to Ukrainians.
If approved, the plan would permit Ukrainians to travel for up to 90 days throughout the European Union's 28 member states.
The EU Migration 1 Commissioner 2, Dimitris Avramopoulos, said Wednesday that the Ukrainian government has made successful judicial 3 and security reforms. These include improved efforts against organized crime and better border security, The Wall Street Journal reports.
Last December, the EU Migration Commission announced that Ukraine had met its goals listed under the EU Visa Liberalization Action Plan.
The proposal now needs approval from the European Parliament and EU member states. If approved, Ukraine would be added to the list of countries whose citizens can travel in the EU without a visa.
The Commission stressed that the measure did not give Ukrainians the right to live or work in the EU.
Also on Wednesday, Avramopoulos noted 4 that Turkey has made progress in controlling the flow of migrants. He promised to propose visa-travel for Turks early next month if Turkey meets other requirements listed in the European Union action plan.
