Strong support of the German socialists for Bulgaria’s entry into Schengen
The Chairman of the Delegation of the German Socialists in the lower parliament, Jens Geier, sent a video message in support of Bulgaria’s membership in Schengen. He now calls on the EU to support our country in its efforts, which have been going on for 11 years. The topic is expected to be on the agenda of the Council in early December.
“I strongly support the idea of Bulgaria becoming a member of the Schengen area. Bulgaria also supports my political group of socialists and democrats in the lower parliament, the majority in the lower parliament, as well as in the European Commission. Now it is important to support to come from all the countries that are members of the low union,” says Geyer.
On the initiative of the Bulgarian and Romanian socialists and with the support of the chairman of the group Irache García Pérez, the topic entered the agenda of the EP last month, and the deputies accepted with a large majority a resolution in support of the membership of the two countries.
Yesterday, the European Commission called on the Council to take without further ado the necessary decisions to enable Bulgaria, Romania and Croatia to participate fully in the Schengen area. In the previous communication, the Commission reviewed the solid results achieved by the three countries in implementing the Schengen rules.
