lpv:translated text	"Romania and Bulgaria have fulfilled the technical criteria stipulated in the Schengen which ought to have been reflected in them joining this area of free movement. It has not happened like this, and now additional criteria may be imposed on both these Member States which were not hitherto discussed when any other Member State was joining Schengen. The European Parliament supports a Schengen area, based on the way it was conceived in 1995, without any additional, arbitrary criteria. Today, we are reaffirming our support for this pillar of integration. However, if compliance with the Schengen is no longer a strong enough argument to persuade some Member States, the weakening of European integration ought to be considered. During this deep crisis that we are currently experiencing, preventing Romania and Bulgaria from joining the Schengen area sends out a negative and dangerous signal, which may pave the way to the disintegration of the EU. I reaffirm my confidence in the political backbone of Europe’s leaders, who must adopt a fair approach to both these Member States, irrespective of nationalist fears, prejudices and exploits."@en1
