Honestly, as a Bulgarian I prefer a mini Schengen via land with Romania and Greece than an "air Schengen". 2 big and important economic, cultural neighbours for us. I prefer to drive and trade very freely from Iasi to Piareus and trade and visit very freely both RO and GR than Vienna or Rotterdam. I wish we have more borderless bridges with Romania and more bonding roads with Northern Greece. If both countries go well, so will BG simply because we have lots of trade, tourism and culture together.

Austria stopped Romania by claiming Schengen is threatened by migrants traversing our country, an accusation which Austria failed to prove. They also had no problem letting in Croatia at the same time they refused entry to Romania and Bulgaria. Austria offered Romania a deal to take Austrian refugees in exchange to limited Schengen access. As a Romanian I can only say I am disappointed we still live in an age where we are seen as vassals who need to pay tribute in order to have access to what we rightfully deserve. I would rather my country import refugees from Turkey and send them directly to Vienna as a sign of protest. Many Romanian hate how we are treated and want to elect a "tougher" leader. Heck even if we imported oil from Russia, I wouldn't mind. Austria chose to sabotage Romania's economy, so why should we care about sanctions anymore.

Let’s be honest - Austria blocking Bulgaria and Romania for Schengen has nothing to do with illegal migration. The majority if the illegal migrants in Austria are coming from Italy (as there is no border check on the Austria-Italy border) and not via the Balkans. The reason for this is economical - if Romania and Bulgaria are in Schengen, they became really good place for setting up production and assembly factories, that are going to be HUGE competitors to all Austria-owned businesses in Central Europe. It is all about money, and not illegal migration or “the rule of law”.

Being just a little above average considering we are in Europe and not a south american failed democracy or a former african colony is sad. Romania did not develope through competence of leadership but inertia, only the largest cities visibly developed (some more than others) and that is due to the private sector allowing Romanians to finally be a part of a growing middle class, but as this middle class grows, so does public debt, so does inflation, so does the cost of living. Truth is, Romania missed the train a long time ago From the 90s opportunities of foreign investments to the 2020s rejection in the Schengen area, it is all the result of constant missed opportunities and lack of perspective from politicians and population. Romanians are wealthier, but more individualistic and ignorant, just saw a comment above that is angry on the entirety of Austria because he cannot drive to Greece for a 4 day summer holiday… completely unaware of the real reason why the Schengen area is important to us.

can someone please explain this to me: If Hungary and Romania share a non-schengen border which means everyone should be checked upon crossing borders, how is Austria having illegal immigrants any proof that Romania has corrupt border crossings? When entering Hungary or any other Schengen zone from Romania, the Schengen country HAS to check everyone's ID. If anything, this shows me that if they have an illegal immigrant problem, the existing schengen countries ARE the culprit by failing to properly check those entering their countries. as a Romanian, I doubt we can call this progress. Showing your ID when flying in / out of Romania is barely an inconvenience whereas the economical damage done by not being in terestrial Schengen is huge and where the actual problem lies. What we got now is just dust blown in our face, and might be even a setback if they make up new requirements for the terestrial one.

In exchange, they forced RO and BG to take in illegal refugees that Austria (and the rest of EU) do not want in their countries. And the Romanian politicians were just too dumb and hastily said Yes to the deal in order to win votes. I, for one, do not like to be treated like a 2nd class EU citizen and have illegal immigrants all around the country receiving social benefits and who do not care about integration and respecting the hosting country's culture like in other western states.

Austria makes a lot of money from exploiting Romania's resources, from that single fact should not veto Romania's enter request in the Schengen area. Even if a lot of migrants are entering from Romania, they can be integrated in the countries that they are settling form much more cheaper than the profits made out of Romania. My point is, with or without migrants this will be a win-win situation for both Romania and Austria, economically speaking. Romania has a lot of problems but what country dose not have? Especially with the rise of Fascism and Nationalism in the EU, we should make sure that we are strong together against the new fascist political movements.

But in this case it is not Romania and Bulgaria fault but it's rather austria's fault and Romanians and Bulgarians are in their right to be Eurosceptic when they witness this rejection which is unjustified in any way

But I haven't heard of any proper official proposal on this matter.

Honestly, in this case it would have been better to remain outside Schengen, because then tourists would have come to Romania and Bulgaria in order to reset the Schengen clock and then RO and BG would have had at least some financial gain. Now RO and BG lose both the tourists (as the Schengen clock will be applied to these countries because they will start issuing Schengen visas) and spend even more time waiting at the land border (which was the big issue) in exchange for 10 minutes less waiting time at the airport...What a " bargain "!!!

wasn't there a scandal with von der leyen and kiril petkov ?

{wow this video remind me alot my stay in Romania was so fun and motivating. My financial life transformed greatly as I met an old friend in Romania who introduced me to online trading and investment. I started investing in assets that earns me monthly passive income and now I got 4 out of my 5 goals. Just hope it encourages someone's that it doesn’t matter if you dont have any knowledge right now, you can start TODAY regardless your age INVEST and change your future! Investing in the financial market is a grand choice I made.;}✓✓✓

The problem for Bulgaria and Romania delay in entry in sengen area isn't its people nor politicians nor Europe nor corruption. The problem is turkey. Turkey sends illegal migrants (Muslim men in their 20s). Most of them end up in greece hoping for moving to Germany or something. If Romania joins, turkey can send people to Romania via boats, just like how it does to Greek Islands. If Bulgarian joins, turkey can send immigrants via boat and boarder. Now there is a grey zone in Balkans all countries are in shengen apart from these 2. Immigrants enter greece and have nowhere to go, some stay some go back. If Romania and Bulgaria join shengen, the process of moving people to Europe gets easier, and Europe can't allow itself to change drastically and have little gazas everywhere. 😮😮

The problem is Germany, making it easy for illegal migrants to enter and stay forever. Ten years ago, before Germanys chancellor Merkel opened the borders and hearts, illegal migration was no big thing besides a few thousand soldiers of fortune at the Pas de Calais.

@@HeroManNick132 greece is somehow a chekcpoin. some leave greece towards western europe becuase western europe wants these human traficers to send people in doses. to fix demography issues. (i dont believe that last one. it is just german/dutch/ french etc. dont want to do labour work. only office work). also greece entered E.U. in 1981. back then there wasnt any immigrant crisis. Romania and Bulgaria gained independence during Soviet and Yugoslav collapse, their immidiate neighbours. Who says if they didnt enter E.U. 14 years later in 2007 insread of right away, europe didnt fill with Yugoslav (mostly Kosovar and Serbian migrants and Poor Romanian and Bulgarian seeking for better life conditions ???) every era has its peculiarities. In 1981 for greece there wasnt any from W.Europe towards greece to "discriminate" it from priviliges, the other 10-ish E.U. countries had. Pros where more than Cons for Greece to Join E.U. and Shengen. For (back at the time) Romania and Bulgaria, the Cons are equal with the Pros. Thus E.U. members were hesitant. thats why you see 27 member nowadays and not 36 (Eastern+Balkan European countries like Bosnia &Herz, Albania, Moldova, Ukraine etc.) Cons are far more than the Cons. imagine their negiotiations fro them to join.

Does this mean bad news for people looking to do visa runs? Previously, it was nice to have the option to pause the Schengen clock, and get additional time in the EU.

It doesn't make any sense to allow air and sea but not land. That's is gonna cause a lot of trouble

Austria should be sent to court. It's a massive injustice for Romania to be held up by such a tiny country.

Romania is crime infested. Now it will spread even more

Hitler has Austrian origins, we wonder why so much hatred🤔

As a Romanian I think it is all about something else: The EU leadership is preparing to negotiate with Russia after the war, when Ukraine will no longer exist as a country. Neither the EU nor Russia want a common border but a transition zone between two empires. Romania has had this "middle zone" status in history unfortunately. It's sad, I know, but that's global politics. Austria rather supports Russia in this endeavour and the EU leadership accepts this outcome with realism and resignation.

We are treated by the West like the last beggars, same with the company's that are located in Ro and Bg. Very low salary's and 12H shift , and demand from a day shift is huge... When will this stop?

Austria will pay the price for their assertive government policies related to the Russian interests. Period.

That's because there is no Schengen grade border between Romania and Bulgaria. They were always considered as a package so the only borders upgraded to Schengen grade are the ones externally to Romania and Bulgaria, and not the one between them.

Interesting when Austria used alone veto against Romania you do not want to take away their voting rights unlike with Hungary.

That's why the empire back then was called Austria-Hungary (Austro-Hungarian Empire) not not Hungary-Austria.

If I were to decide in Romania or Bulgaria I would just seriously consider to relay the message to "Brussels", that we are no longer interested in joining "Schengen" or the Euro (money). This would cause instant panic in the EU headquarters amd Austria would be told in no uncertain terms to cave in on their requirements.
