- freeone3000 10y agoRight, but the EU is saying if the US doesn't, the EU will require visas from US travelers.
- ucha 10y agoWhat's the logic there? The EU is under no obligation to allow Americans to travel without a visa.
- beejiu 10y agoNobody is saying the US is under any obligation.
- genericpseudo 10y agoNo-one claimed it was! It's hardball negotiation. In this, the US meets the EU's demands or it doesn't get what it wants.
- nonglobal 10y agoEither the US meets Brussels demands, or the EU cuts off its nose in spite and throws gasoline on the anti-EU fire for member states that depend heavily on tourism from the US. Brilliant strategy, that.
