Good move by the EU. The US should follow.

The European Union has promised to speed up the introduction of a simplified visa regime for Ukrainians, EU Commissioner for Enlargement and European Neighborhood Policy Stefan Fule has said.

Until the current mess and backlog gets handled, we don't need to be taking on anything further that will delay processing times or potentially putting others undeservedly at the head of the line.

Maybe the same reason as people from Wales.

Fixed that for you.

Characterizing a future prediction as a fact . . . hhmmm.

It is a lot further and relatively much much more expensive.

It's a terrible burden being right all the time, but I've learned to live with it.

No doubt, their pride will keep them home, safe and sound from their current economic and political condition.....sure....the country would empty in minutes. If not true, then why have so many 'proud' Ukrainians remained here, in violation of our laws?

Does anyone know if The US Embassy in Ukraine may check applicant's Vkontakte and Facebook pages before issuing a B2 visa?

[RhettVoe 282]

Yes. The FPU checks these sites frequently, just to see who is contemplating a mind change. Or, who is proud...and who is not.

They sure do.

They make sure they're looking at the real one, too.
