Extraordinary as the times may be in terms of implementation of visa policies world-wide, the Commission considers it still of importance to report in the present Communication on the steps taken in the reporting period, especially during the course of 2019 before the COVID-19 global pandemic erupted, to achieve full visa reciprocity with the United States for all Member States.
Kuigi kogu maailmas on praegu viisapoliitika rakendamise seisukohast erakordne aeg, peab komisjon endiselt oluliseks anda käesolevas teatises aru aruandeperioodil, eelkõige 2019. aastal, enne COVID-19 üleilmse pandeemia puhkemist võetud meetmetest, mille eesmärk on saavutada kõigi liikmesriikide täielik vastastikune viisavabadus USAga.
