The European Parliament’s Committee on Civil Liberties, Justice and Home Affairs criticized the European Commission of not having taken categorical steps to protect the rights of the citizens of Bulgaria, Romania, Poland, Cyprus and Croatia related to visa-free travel to the USA. The MEPs have reported on the progress related to the visa-free travel of Bulgarian and Romanian nationals to Canada which became possible recently, but at the same time criticized the EC for lack of progress since 2016 on visa reciprocity for five EU member states related to visa-free travel to the USA.
