lpv:translated text	"The visa regime recommended here, which we voted against, is a major step backwards for these countries of the former Yugoslavia. Under socialism, their citizens were able to travel to the countries now in the European Union without a visa, but they are now required to have one. Moreover, this regime is full of contradictions. Although it provides for the facilitation of visas, it still requires a series of unjustified procedures and demands that biometric data be included in passports, seriously jeopardising the right to privacy and personal data protection, and infringing the rights of these countries’ citizens. At the same time, the unacceptable agreements for the repatriation of persons resident without authorisation are maintained. Countries have to sign these agreements to be able to access the visa facilitation system. In addition to infringing the rights of immigrants in such situations, this amounts to unacceptable pressure and blackmail on these countries. The report also includes dialogue with Kosovo regarding its inclusion in this process. That implicitly constitutes recognition and violates international law and Serbia’s sovereignty over this territory."@en1
