lpv:translated text	"I voted in favour of the recommendation, according to which the signature of the protocol between the European Union, the European Community, the Swiss Confederation and the Principality of Liechtenstein on the accession of the Principality of Liechtenstein to the EU Agreement on the Swiss Confederation's association with the implementation, application and development of the Schengen took place on 28 February 2008. Switzerland joined the Schengen area alone, on 12 December 2008, with the abolition of border control at land borders, followed by the abolition of border checks on intra-Schengen flights at airports on 29 March 2009. For the first time, it was necessary to put up controls at a place where there has been no real border for 100 years. The 41 kilometres that separate the two countries became an external Schengen border. I welcome the new rules introduced by the Treaty of Lisbon allowing the European Parliament to be more closely informed about international agreements. The gradual expansion of the Schengen area has led third countries that have particular relations with the EU to take part in Schengen cooperation. The precondition for association with the Schengen by non-EU countries is an agreement on free movement of persons between those states and the EU. For these countries, this participation involves the following: being included in the area without checks at internal borders; applying the provisions of the Schengen and of all Schengen-relevant texts adopted pursuant to it; being involved in decisions relating to Schengen-relevant texts."@en1
