French officials tout Visa waiver accord

It was announced last week that nationals of
St. Lucia, Dominica, Grenada, St. Vincent and the Grenadines and Trinidad and Tobago will no longer need a visa to travel to several European states.
The visa-free entry took effect on May 28th. The regime is part of the Schengen Area Agreement and the representative of France in the OECS says it is a major development for countries in the region.
