European Commissioner for Internal Affairs Cecilia Malmstrom is losing hope that visa liberalization for Kosovo citizens could happen this year. Malmstrom, who has the final say as to whether Kosovo has fulfilled the conditions for liberalization, has told the Deputies of the European Parliament, Tanja Fajon and Ulrike Lunacek, that liberalization can happen only when Kosovo authorities fulfill all conditions in the visa liberalization guide. Both Lunacek and Fajon requested last month that the European Commission accelerate the procedure and recommend the removal of the visa regime for Kosovo citizens this year. However, Cecilia Malmstrom warns that the visa liberalization process is based on merit and not deadlines.
