The Schengen area allows more than 465 million people to travel, work and live in EU countries without internal border checks.
It includes all EU countries(bar Ireland, & Cyprus) + Iceland, Norway, Switzerland and Liechtenstein.
Time to address the Western Balkans situation and make Europe Great again!
How come Ireland is EU but not in the Schengen?
Poor Britain, always left outside and looking in.
*Getting annoyed with your balderdash Ireland…*
Now I can travel by car to Europe from Greece without having to stop at borders and I feel great
Missed off Svalbard.
A part of Norway that is outside of Schengen meaning that if you take a plane from Svalbard to Tromsø (Norway to Norway), you still have to clear customs.
Svalbard is none of the 4 keys, and should be on the map.
I hope the big countries of Austria and Germany are happy now, they successfully managed to blackmail Romania into giving them access to natural gas from the Black Sea. Otherwise, how could a third-world country like Romania could join Schengen?
The fact that this exists is one of the greatest achievements of Europe, and probably my favourite examples of international collaboration.
I benefitted from the union myself, but on the grand picture, I do believe that it should have developed as it was initially designed – one huge trade union without customs and open trade borders.
This ”open border” thing, striving to be like USA or Russia… I’m not sure that it works well. The empires (US and RU) both exist on the premisse of the same language, as for the EU – even the shape of the power socket cannot be unified. And it already exists for how long now, 30 years.
Don’t get me wrong; universal truth is that there is strength in unity and I will, most likely, remain the unionist till the very end. But even now, after 30 years, EU (as such) leaves more to be desired then it provides.
