Translation (en-hr): Komisija je nakon toga predstavila još pet komunikacija: u srpnju i prosincu 2016., svibnju i prosincu 2017. i prosincu 2018.

English: These measures are linked to entry restrictions to the United States based on the physical presence in the areas concerned, and not the nationality of the travellers and are therefore not linked with visa reciprocity.
Translation (en-hr): Te su mjere povezane s ograničenjima ulaska u Sjedinjene Američke Države na temelju fizičke prisutnosti u predmetnim područjima, a ne s državljanstvom putnika, te stoga nisu povezane s viznim reciprocitetom.
English: [22: Poland and United States signed the required Preventing and Combating Serious Crime Agreement on 12 June 2019 and successfully worked towards its full implementation.]
Translation (en-hr): [22: Poljska i Sjedinjene Američke Države potpisale su 12. lipnja 2019. zahtijevani sporazum o sprečavanju i suzbijanju teškog kriminala i uspješno su radile na njegovoj potpunoj provedbi.]

English: Such a breakdown, with figures on specific locations or trends in key consulates with a high refusal rate, would notably help the Member States to better target their outreach campaigns and in this way bring the visa refusal rate down further.
Translation (en-hr): Takva raščlamba, s brojkama konkretnih lokacija ili trendova u ključnim konzulatima s visokom stopom odbijanja, posebno bi pomogla državama članicama da bolje usmjere svoje informativne kampanje te na taj način dodatno smanje stopu odbijanja zahtjeva za vizu.

Translation (en-hr): Sjedinjene Američke Države objasnile su da su u kontaktu s predmetnim državama članicama preko konzularnih odjela veleposlanstava Sjedinjenih Američkih Država u njihovim glavnim gradovima.
English: Against this background, the Commission currently considers that the adoption of a delegated act temporarily suspending the exemption from the visa requirement for nationals of the United States would be counterproductive at this point in time and it would not serve to achieve the objective of visa-free travel for all EU citizens.
Translation (en-hr): U tom kontekstu Komisija trenutačno smatra da bi donošenje delegiranog akta o privremenoj suspenziji izuzeća od obveze posjedovanja vize za državljane Sjedinjenih Američkih Država u ovom trenutku bilo kontraproduktivno i da ne bi doprinijelo postizanju cilja putovanja bez vize za sve građane EU-a.
English: The Regulation also required that the Commission take into account the consequences of the suspension of the visa waiver for the external relations of the EU and its Member States.
Translation (en-hr): Tom se uredbom zahtijevalo i da Komisija vodi računa o posljedicama suspenzije zahtjeva za vizu na vanjske odnose EU-a i država članica.
English: This approach was instrumental for resolving previous non-reciprocity cases, and also bore fruit in the case of the United States.
Translation (en-hr): Taj pristup, koji je bio neophodan za rješavanje prethodnih slučajeva izostanka reciprociteta, bio je uspješan i u slučaju Sjedinjenih Američkih Država.
English: The same obligation is now provided for by Article 7 of Regulation (EU) 2018/1806 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 14 November 2018 listing the third countries whose nationals must be in possession of visas when crossing the external borders and those whose nationals are exempt from that requirement (codification), OJ L 303, 28.11.2018, p. 39, which codified Regulation 539/2001.
Translation (en-hr): Ista je obveza sada propisana člankom 7. Uredbe (EU) 2018/1806 Europskog parlamenta i Vijeća od 14. studenoga 2018. o popisu trećih zemalja čiji državljani moraju imati vizu pri prelasku vanjskih granica i zemalja čiji su državljani izuzeti od tog zahtjeva (kodificirani tekst), SL L 303, 28.11.2018., str. 39., kojom je kodificirana Uredba 539/2001.][5: Vidjeti članak 7. Uredbe (EU) 2018/1806.]
English: However, the Communication recalled that, if the third country concerned had not lifted the visa requirement by 12 April 2016, Council Regulation (EC) No 539/2001 of 15 March 2001, as amended by the European Parliament and Council by Regulation (EU) No 1289/2013 of 11 December 2013, obliged the Commission to adopt a delegated act suspending for 12 months the visa waiver for nationals of that third country.
Translation (en-hr): Međutim, u Komunikaciji se podsjeća da je, ako predmetna treća zemlja do 12. travnja 2016. nije ukinula zahtjev za vizu, Uredbom Vijeća (EZ) br. 539/2001 od 15. ožujka 2001. kako je izmijenjena Uredbom Europskog parlamenta i Vijeća (EU) br. 1289/2013 od 11. prosinca 2013., Komisija bila obvezana donijeti delegirani akt kojim se za državljane te treće zemlje na 12 mjeseci suspendira izuzeće od zahtjeva za vizu.
English: This Communication comes at a time of proliferation of visa-related measures taken by many countries to fight the COVID-19 global pandemic.
Translation (en-hr): Ova se Komunikacija predstavlja u vrijeme širenja mjera povezanih s vizama koje su mnoge zemlje poduzele u borbi protiv globalne pandemije COVID-a 19.
English: According to United States legislation, as stipulated in the United States Immigration and Nationality Act, the aspiring countries for the Visa Waiver Program must have a refusal rate for non-immigrant visas of less than 3% per year or a two-year average of less than 2%.
Translation (en-hr): U skladu sa zakonodavstvom Sjedinjenih Američkih Država, kako je propisano u američkom Zakonu o useljavanju i državljanstvu, zemlje koje žele sudjelovati u programu izuzeća od obveze posjedovanja vize moraju sniziti stopu odbijanja za neuseljeničke vize na manje od 3 % godišnje ili njezin dvogodišnji prosjek na manje od 2 %.

Translation (en-hr): Pregled kontakata između EU-a i Sjedinjenih Američkih Država i naknadne mjere
English: According to visa refusal statistics for the fiscal year 2019, the visa refusal rates for three of the four Member States concerned remain above the required 3% threshold (Bulgaria 9.75%, Croatia 4.02% and Romania 9.11%).
Translation (en-hr): Prema podacima o odbijanju viza za fiskalnu godinu 2019., stope odbijanja zahtjeva za vizu za tri od četiri predmetne države članice i dalje su iznad zahtijevane razine od 3 % (Bugarska 9,75 %, Hrvatska 4,02 % i Rumunjska 9,11 %).
English: The Commission welcomes Poland's entry into the Visa Waiver Program, which is the result of active diplomatic engagement and full cooperation with all sides.
Translation (en-hr): Komisija je vrlo zadovoljna činjenicom da je Poljska uvrštena u program izuzeća od obveze posjedovanja vize, što je rezultat aktivnog diplomatskog angažmana i potpune suradnje svih strana.

English: The next tripartite meeting to be held in spring 2020 would be an occasion to revisit progress made on the work-plans by each of the four remaining Member States, and the issue will be revisited, to monitor progress, at the next Ministerial meeting in Croatia in May 2020.
Translation (en-hr): Sljedeći tripartitni sastanak koji se treba održati u proljeće 2020. bio bi prilika da se preispita napredak koji je svaka od četiri preostale države članice ostvarila u planovima rada, a o tom će se pitanju radi praćenja napretka ponovno raspravljati na sljedećem ministarskom sastanku u Hrvatskoj u svibnju 2020.
English: Among the four Member States, some appear to be closer to fulfilling these requirements and to be considered for designation into the Visa Waiver Program, however there are concrete prospects of progress for all of them, notwithstanding the current exceptional situation of COVID-19 global pandemic.
Translation (en-hr): Čini se da su neke od četiri države članice bliže ispunjenju tih zahtjeva i uvrštenju u program izuzeća od obveze posjedovanja vize, no postoje konkretni izgledi za napredak svih, bez obzira na trenutačnu iznimnu situaciju pandemije COVID-a 19 na globalnoj razini.
