The European Enlargment Commissioner Olli Rehn said Thursday he hoped that lifting of the visa regime for the Balkan's countries would be proposed before the Czech presidency over the Union ends on 1 July.
During his speech in the debate entitled "Consolidating of Stability and Prosperity of Western Balkans," Rehn said that such a move would enable the Council of EU to take a decision for abolishing of the visa requirements for the countries that have met the necessary conditions.
As to the enlargment of EU, Rehn urged for consolidating of the Union, underlying that the key of such reinstated consensus would be respecting of the existing conditions, instead of setting new ones, Makfax agency said.
"In other words, if the Western Balkan's countries fulfil the already set conditions, they could make a progress," Rehn explained.
The debate in the European Parliament was initiated by the Report on Western Balkan, presented by the Sweden's MEP Ana Ibrisagic.
