EU/Cape Verde Agreement: facilitation of the issue of short-stay visas

The Committee on Civil Liberties, Justice and Home Affairs adopted the report by Mariya GABRIEL (EPP, BG) on the draft Council Decision on the conclusion of the Agreement between the European Union and the Republic of Cape Verde on facilitating the issue of short-stay visas to citizens of the Republic of Cape Verde and of the European Union.

Members recommend that the European Parliament consents to the conclusion of the Agreement, considering that it is a very important step forward in relations between the European Union and an ACP country (the Cape Verde) in respect of justice and home affairs.
