Abstract:
With post-9/11 improvements and more vigilant oversight, the Visa Waiver Program will significantly enhance security, trade, and travel. The VWP should include such strategic nations as India, South Korea, and the new Eastern European democracies, and a certification road map for selected partner nations should be established with a goal of achieving full certification within five to 10 years.
