EU working on visa liberalisation for Turkish citizens — Politico

The European Union is working on visa liberalisation for Turkish citizens, Politico reported, citing sources.

According to the report, the issue was discussed during a visit to Ankara by EU foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas, Enlargement Commissioner Marta Kos and Migration and Home Affairs Commissioner Magnus Brunner.

During the trip, the EU officials held talks with Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan.

Fidan earlier said Ankara expected Brussels to improve relations “on the basis of objective criteria and merit, without any discrimination.” He also said Turkey’s accession to the European Union remained a strategic goal for the country.
