Alexandria, Virginie (12 avril 2016) \u2013 La Commission europ\u00e9enne discute d'une \u00e9ventuelle suspension d'un an de son accord d'exemption de visa avec les \u00c9tats-Unis et le Canada, qui obligerait tous les voyageurs \u00e0 obtenir un visa pour voyager en Europe.<\/p>\n
La d\u00e9claration suivante peut \u00eatre attribu\u00e9e \u00e0 Michael W. McCormick, directeur ex\u00e9cutif et COO de la Global Business Travel Association (GBTA)\u00a0:<\/p>\n
\u00ab La GBTA d\u00e9courage fortement les d\u00e9cideurs politiques europ\u00e9ens d\u2019envisager une suspension de son accord d\u2019exemption de visa avec les \u00c9tats-Unis et le Canada. L'accord facilite les voyages, stimule la cr\u00e9ation d'emplois et la croissance \u00e9conomique et constitue un outil essentiel pour promouvoir le commerce international. Une suspension aurait un impact n\u00e9gatif sur les voyages d'affaires, qui ont repr\u00e9sent\u00e9 l'ann\u00e9e derni\u00e8re environ 1,2 billion de dollars de d\u00e9penses mondiales.<\/p>\n
Une suspension cr\u00e9erait \u00e9galement un arri\u00e9r\u00e9 de demandes de visa pour les voyages en Europe, r\u00e9duirait les voyages internationaux et aurait un impact n\u00e9gatif et durable sur les relations de l\u2019UE avec les \u00c9tats-Unis et le Canada. \u00c0 une \u00e9poque o\u00f9 l\u2019\u00e9conomie mondiale est d\u00e9j\u00e0 confront\u00e9e \u00e0 de nombreuses incertitudes, cette d\u00e9cision pourrait porter un coup d\u00e9vastateur \u00e0 la poursuite de la croissance \u00e9conomique.\u00bb<\/p>\n
Dans une communication publi\u00e9e aujourd'hui, la Commission europ\u00e9enne reconna\u00eet qu'une suspension de l'accord d'exemption de visa nuirait \u00e0 la coop\u00e9ration transatlantique \u00e0 un moment o\u00f9 il est plus important que jamais d'intensifier nos efforts communs. Il souligne \u00e9galement la diminution ult\u00e9rieure du nombre de voyageurs en provenance du Canada et des \u00c9tats-Unis, ce qui entra\u00eenerait une perte \u00e9conomique consid\u00e9rable pour l'UE.<\/p>\n
