Because of euroinstitut now developing a mechanism to suspend visa-free regime for all countries with which it works. This is not a prejudice against official Kiev – Brussels wants to have a safety cushion in case a wave of illegal migrants in transit from all visa-free countries, and there are about 60, will be a threat.
