"Mr President, the decision to deny a visa obviously depends on US civil servants. Making the right of entry to the US conditional on the percentage of visa applications rejected amounts to reasoning as follows: let us do what we want, nothing depends on you, but we will use this process to subject you to humiliating treatment and procedures, and to force you to accept such a degrading system. This is simply unacceptable, and proves that no partnership exists and that to all intents and purposes we are in a position where we cannot influence anything.
I do hope, however, that the Community approach to this matter and recourse to other instruments derived from the relationship between the European Union and the United States will result in some method of resolving the problem."@en1
