EU MUST REVISE SCHENGEN ...


The End of the War in the Middle East may take longer than expected, and afterwards Extremist Muslim Terrorist cells in every EU country will continue the "Struggle for Totalitarian  Islamic rights" !   They will still kill and destroy until they get what they want, or are "wiped out" !  Many are prepared to die like Martyrs !    

Refugees or Migrants, from wherever they come, will always  seek shelter in a prosperous and "peaceful" country of the EU until there is Peace in their homeland.   Only then, will a few  "temporarily sheltered" Migrants have the courage to return to help rebuild their devastated Homeland.  

The photos of the total destruction of buildings in this Middle East conflict are particularly depressing, even disturbing.  How could anyone really want to go back there again ?  
   
The World in which we live changes naturally as time goes by !  The same cannot be said of some of the older EU Treaties, like the 1985 Schengen Treaty !   It now contains several outdated and undefendable principles which prevent the simplest  of actions to be taken rapidly.    It must must be reviewed and updated.  This would help in emergencies as and when they   arise.
 
The Treaty of Schengen has become a major stumbling block and is now quite simply an excuse for "inaction" !   

Many politicians in the EU realise this.   Even Electors in many countries who have expressed their dissatisfaction by voting for new extremist Parties, in Germany and France for example.   Electors want Action and Security !  Elected MPs also.  They are all worried !

Donald Tusk must ensure that a "Schengen Treaty Revision" is included in the Agenda for the next EU Council meeting, even if Jean-Claude Junker is opposed to the idea, or if Chancellor Merkel of Germany does not want such a revision.   Working Groups must be formed to identify the changes required to Schengen and perhaps also to other Treaties as a consequence.
