Americans Might Have to Get a Visa for Europe

Not posting since I am unsure if we can excerpt Time.

The upshot is the EU has found that the US is in violation of Visa reciprocity from Bulgaria, Romania, Croatia, Cyprus, and Poland and wants to force US citizens to get Visas to go there.

am traveling to Hungary, Croatia, Serbia, Romania and Bulgaria in 10 days. Should be a wonderful trip.

Alright then, sounds like a great deal, everyone gets visas... And yep, the EU would be the loser in that, as members of the EU are used to doing the ‘mother may I’ for just about everything, and Americans are not.

Tourism to France is already way down because hollande is doing nothing about the threat from muzzlims. This will cut the visits down to 1-2 thousand a year. France will be devastated financially.

There are PLENTY of amazing places to visit in the United States and even Canada.

No need to go to some country bound and determined to commit cultural suicide by becoming another muslim hell hole.

good, starve the eurotrash...

OK. I'll get one when I need one and if it's a problem, being a Zionist could be, I'll spend my money elsewhere. If Europe gets fewer tourists, so be it. Business travelers too, that's what phones are.

Maybe someone can educate me, is there such a thing as an EU visa, or do they expect one for each country.

Or are they discriminating against MasterCard and American Express. Discover isn't there. Maybe I misunderstand the entire issue.

More money stays in the USA. So, where is the downside?

[spel_grammer_an_punct_polise]

Are there any Americans in their right minds who would want to go to EU countries where the terrorists can read the “terrorists welcome” signs?

The whole of Europe can go suck eggs.

I’ve heard Slovenia, is a nice place to go, as well.

I went there by accident once. Was taking the train to Croatia from Italy, and didn't realize I had to change trains in Triese and wound up in Ljubljuna instead.

"I’ve heard Slovenia, is a nice place to go, as well."

I think I'll require some photographic evidence, if you catch my drift....

U.S. citizens don’t actually need a passport to get into Canada. A birth certificate and drivers’ license is enough. But you do need one to get back into the U.S. Well, I guess you could get back in, eventually, but it would be a major hassle.

[Cen-Tejas]

you nailed it and I am the King Lazy European Visitor! Add a ViSA and my lady getting raped and me killed defending her and I will go visit South Padre Island instead!

Fortunately, I’ve been there 3 times and could care less. The slightest hassle kills it for me.

[Reverend Wright]

the only way I will ever go outside Canada or USA is via extraordinary rendition !

[HollyB]

Agree!

[SkyPilot]

The official reason for the visa requirement is retaliation against the US for requiring visas for citizens of Bulgaria, Croatia, and Poland who visit the United States.

I think that is BS. The real reason is Donald Trump. He is fighting against their globalist illuminati plans on Islamic Invaders, Brexit, trade, currency, and other matters (including the EU plans for a global court of law).

[SkyPilot]

I think it’s punishment for the region supporting Brexit.

Of course it is.

Best to your daughter, and God bless.

[Neoliberalnot]

Agree. Getting visas is usually pretty simple anyway.

“Wonder why they never brought this up during the 0bozo administration, it has apparently been in effect for some time”

I have been hearing about it for years. I believe it has been driven mostly by Polish lobby.

I’m way ahead of them.

Got two Visas, two mastercards, an american express and discover card :)

sorry...
