"Madam President, I sincerely supported the accession of Bulgaria and Romania to Schengen, as they have fulfilled all the criteria set out in the Schengen evaluation process. This has been acknowledged both by the Council and Parliament. We cannot change the rules during the process and discriminate against new Member States just because of the domestic debate in some of the Schengen Member States. We have to stand up for freedom of movement in Europe. Freedom of movement is one of the cornerstones of the European Union. I am sure that both the Bulgarian and the Romanian authorities will take all their responsibilities and continue to be committed to putting in place and implementing the Schengen . To protect our citizens in the Schengen area, we are not going to build more walls; we have to move forward to a common migration asylum policy. We have to have better police cooperation. We have to implement the new Frontex legislation. It is not a time for divisions in Europe. Once again, it is time for more unity, more cohesion, and not for fractions."@en1
