". – The only thing I would like to say is that some decisions come under the competence of the Commission, some other decisions come under the competence of the Swedish Government. What I said and would like to reiterate is that, up to now, the Swedish authorities have not notified any specific identity document to be recognised by all Member States as a travel document according to Directive 68/360, which does not mean that the Swedish Government has the intention to introduce changes in their identity cards due to the reason that you have mentioned. There is not a specific indication of nationality in that document. My evaluation is that the Schengen
does not introduce any change in national travel documents because, as far as I know, that remains strictly the responsibility of Member States. Therefore I hope within the next few months we will be able to clarify the intentions of the Swedish Government concerning identity cards and the best interpretation of the Schengen
.
I can assure you that the political objective of this exercise is to make free movement of people easier, not more difficult."@en1
