27.09.2006 - 09:45 CET | By Lucia Kubosova EUOBSERVER / BRUSSELS – Central and eastern European member states are gearing up to fight a projected two-year delay before they can participate in the EU’s Schengen borderless zone, believing the reasons for their continued exclusion are political rather than technical.
While the original target date for newcomers to enjoy travelling to western Europe without border checks was October 2007, under the new timetable - proposed by the European Commission – a more likely date is the summer or autumn of 2009.
The commission says that the reasons for the delay are technical and are mainly to do with the completion of a central EU office to store and transfer fingerprints and other security data among the current and new Schengen countries.
But several new member states, particularly the Visegrad countries - Poland, the Czech Republic, Hungary and Slovakia - are sceptical about the explanations, arguing that the real reasons are political.

adicatelea daca inteleg eu
adicatelea daca inteleg eu bine, deocamdata calatorim cu pasaportul si luam intrarea pe la frontiera, iar dupa, luam iesirea fara politia de frontiera si poate one day sa calatorim cu CI ?
Ai inteles este vorba de spatiul shengen
Da asa este. Pe moment cele 12 tari din UE, nu sunt in schengen, deci este inca nevoie de pasaport la frontiera.
Exemplu treci din FR in UK este control la frontiera pt. ca UK nu este in spatiu schengen.
Pentru cetatenii UE insa este doar o formalitate, sunt chestii unde este scris cetateni UE si cetateni non UE la frontiera.
