    Why are visas necessary in either direction. With the close relationship between the US and EU shouldn’t we have more open travel?

      The US has required it for Europeans for a while. I wish the US have Europeans visa free travel, but I understand the mild tit for tat.

      Bulgaria, Cyprus, and Romania are still not on the US Visa Waiver Program list, despite being EU members. So there is still no full reciprocity between the EU and US on visa-free access.
