".
Europe has abolished internal borders. As well as the common market, we have the great Schengen agreement. We can move freely. In exchange for removing all the doors from the 15 apartments in the European building, the 380 million tenants were entitled to have an effective doorman at the common entrance.
This doorman at the external borders, however, is not doing his job. In Almeria, Brindisi and, as of June 2004, in Poland, Cyprus and the Baltic States, drugs, pimps, immigration, human trafficking, criminals and terrorists all move freely. Security is no longer guaranteed. The rapporteur asks for radars, satellites, a common monitoring policy, continuous training with a type of ‘Frontalis’, following the ‘Fiscalis’ model of integrated tax control, and naturally the inevitable European body.
In this case, a border-control corps, just as others want coastguards. There is even the traditional European agency to heal all woes going by the name of SCIFA+, a body responsible for coordinating border protection. In the meantime, the external borders are like leaky sieves, letting everything through. Which at the end of the day is the only effective solution. Once Europe has been swamped from the East and from the South, it will no longer be necessary to monitor entry through the borders since everyone will already be inside."@en1
