Die Welt: Georgia and Ukraine Could Soon Travel Visa-Free in Europe

Die Welt, a German newspaper, has published an article on its website announcing that following Turkish citizens, Georgians and Ukrainians would be allowed to travel within the European Union (EU) without visa permission.

Based on its diplomatic source in Brussels, Die Welt emphasized that in Brussels high officials have already talked about giving both countries visa-free travel. Thus both countries could expect positive progress by the EU on December 15th.

“After Turkey, the European Union wants to open its door for two more states in the coming year. Citizens of Ukraine and Georgia will be able to travel without visas in the EU soon and the visa-free regime for both countries will apply from mid-2016," Die Welt reports.
