The Swiss People’s Party criticized on Sunday having visa free access of the citizens of Albania and Bosnia Herzegovina to the visa free Schengen treaty countries including Switzerland.

The hard-line party said in a statement that the decision of the Swiss federal Council in this regard have been erroneous, depending on the derisions of the European Parliament and the Council of the European Union.

“The Schengen Convention have to increase security and not to the lack of control in the waves of irregular migration to Europe.”, said the Swiss people’s party.

The Party calls for the need to evaluate the impact of the Schengen convention on Switzerland in particular on the visitors from the Balkans in various fields and to publish the results of this evaluation on public opinion to study the implications of this decision on the country.

It should be noted that Switzerland is not a member of the European Union but both sides have a huge number of bilateral agreements in order to arrange their relations, especially since the European Union is the first commercial partner of Switzerland.

The Swiss radical right intents to stir up public fears of foreigners claiming they threaten the internal security and Swiss culture or have a negative influence on the labour market.
