Earlier this morning we were browsing some travel blogs to see if there was anything we could post to Gridskipper. We came across this worrying bit of news:
Melissa Petri brings up some good reasons why the US might want to keep visa requirements for these 12 less than fully industrialized countries – illegal workers, etc. But she leaves out something that we think might be a little more significant: if this becomes the precedent, what happens if Turkey – with its 40 million Muslims and recent penchant for electing Islamist parties – joins the EU?
