"I welcome the adoption of this regulation by a very large majority – by 562 votes to 29, with 51 abstentions. From now on, any third-country national holding a long-stay visa issued by a Member State will be able to travel to the other Member States for three months in any six-month period, under the same conditions as the holder of a residence permit. This was a measure which many students and researchers, such as those participating in European exchange programmes (Erasmus Mundus), have been waiting for. It is a step forward in terms of making the Union a more attractive destination for students, academics and researchers from third countries. Moreover, it can be seen as a reminder of the European Parliament’s request for the Member States to take steps towards the future introduction of a visa intended specifically for students participating in exchange programmes. I do have one regret, however: the United Kingdom, Ireland and Denmark have not adopted this regulation and will not be subject to its application, even though these countries attract a large number of foreign students and researchers present in the Schengen area."@en1
