Schengen and European Security

Denmark, for example, as a member of the Schengen Agreement, applies the stringent security controls adopted by all Schengen member countries for those entering the Schengen zone, which include a requirement that no United Nations listed person from another country enter the region.

The European Union guarantees its citizens freedom of movement within the territory of its 25 Member States, while the Schengen Agreement has eliminated border controls between its parties, while strengthening controls at the external Schengen area border.

In addition, Denmark enters the name of all United Nations listed persons with sufficient identifying information, whether from a Schengen or non Schengen State, on the Danish criminal register with a permanent prohibition to enter the country.

The Schengen Agreement providing for passport free transit is what makes freedom of movement for people meaningful. But, given the inability of participating states to control their borders with non EU countries, Germany and other Schengen members have temporarily reinstated controls.

The Team noted in its second report (S 2005 83, para. 135) that the European Union, as the most developed of these zones, guarantees its citizens freedom of movement within the territory of its 25 member States, while the Schengen Agreement eliminated border controls between many of the European States while strengthening controls at the external Schengen area border and increasing police and judicial cooperation within the Schengen system.

Greece, for example, also participates in the Schengen system to implement internal and external controls for the region.

The Swiss agreed by referendum on 5 June 2005 to join the Schengen Agreement (see www.europa.admin.ch nbv referendum e ).

This two part approach utilizing Schengen wide restrictions to exclude listed persons from outside the Schengen zone, while maintaining national restrictions to limit the movement of listed aliens within the zone may serve as a model for other States in established or developing border free or visa free regions.

Persons on the Consolidated List, whether or not from another EU or Schengen State, are barred from entry into Greece.

In addition, Switzerland has signed an agreement to join aspects of the EU and Schengen systems, but has not yet ratified it.

Rather than attempt to control the masses of tourists and business travelers entering the country from all sides essentially an exercise in futility in Switzerland the country decided to focus police resources specifically on security threats.
