with NEOS foreign policy spokesman Helmut Brandstätter, Ilhan Kyuchyuk (Bulgarian MEP) and Vlad Botos (Romanian MEP) in front of the Interior Ministry
Vienna (OTS) – Austria is still blocking Romania and Bulgaria from joining Schengen, even though both countries have met all the requirements for this since 2011. The veto harms both Austria and the European Union as a whole.
Before the Council of Interior Ministers meets again in Brussels on Tuesday, NEOS foreign policy spokesman Helmut Brandstätter, the Bulgarian MEP Ilhan Kyuchyuk (MRF) and the Romanian MEP Vlad Botos (USR) invite you to a photo and video campaign in front of the Interior Ministry on Monday. They will call on Austria’s federal government to urgently end its veto and explain the disadvantages of stubbornly insisting on doing so – and what advantages Bulgaria and Romania would have if they joined Schengen.
Media representatives are cordially invited.
