European Parliament says that US citizens should be refused visa-free access to the EU in response to American visa rules affecting citizens from five EU countries.
According to reports, Citizens of Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus, Poland and Romania are currently denied visa-free access to the US.
The European Parliament passed a non-binding resolution on yesterday, but however, member states would have to approve the move, a process that could take years.
Nevertheless, the resolution, passed by a show of hands, said the new visa rules should come into effect quickly and should remain in place until the US visa requirements were shelved.
Meanwhile, a European Parliament statementsays that the EU Commission was legally obliged to temporarily reintroduce the new visa rules because of its exchange policy.
