Visa-free regime with the EU: Romania will be enough?

Безвизовый режим с ЕС: Румынии будет достаточно?

When facing the free cheese, is to look around and understand where is the mousetrap, which is now slammed shut. Ukraine today will receive this coveted visa-free regime with the EU. However, not with the whole EU, but only with Romania – one of the, to put it mildly, not the most prosperous countries of the Association. Domestic state-controlled media coverage of all this as “Peremoga”, however, the achievement is cause for much joy and looks very dubious.

Especially in light of the EU policy with regard to migrants. The fact that Europe’s migration policy now aims to spread arrivals throughout the Association. After all, the refugees in the first place going to the most developed countries of the EU. Now European politicians are trying to find a way out of this catastrophic situation, and redirect migrants to the periphery, just as in those less successful countries like Romania. The inhabitants of the latter, by the way, in poslednee time very unhappy with the influx of refugees, which has worsened the security situation in their country. Numerous polls show that the majority of Romanians opposed to the EU had quotas for the admission of refugees and their distribution between States.

That’s why the introduction of a visa-free regime with Ukraine opens a completely new side. What is the point in the abolition of visas with this country for ordinary Ukrainians? Do so many tourists go on vacation to Romania? For those looking for the opportunity to go to work in the EU — the main reason why the topic of a visa-free regime with Europe so relevant — Romania exit will not. But Syrian refugees are hosted in there now and those that will be in the future, thus free to be able to come to us. What may and expects the European Union and the Romanian authorities.

Of course, we have presented the visa-free regime with Romania as a first step towards the abolition of visas with the EU. However, the latter still at the stage of abstract unsubstantiated promises, but the way for Syrian migrant workers in Ukraine will be opened today.
