lpv:translated text	"The European Council meeting held on 9 December 2011 failed to impose its viewpoint on the accession of Romania and Bulgaria to the Schengen area, even though it noted once again that all the required legal conditions have been fulfilled. Due to the lack of political will, the message conveyed by the Council was not persuasive enough. The constant veto from the Netherlands raises doubts about the legitimacy of this state’s declarations which, on the one hand, state that Romania has done its duty and complied with all the requirements set out by the Schengen while, on the other, it does not comply with the political agreement signed with the other Member States. The Netherlands’ stance not only affects access to Schengen for Romania and Bulgaria, but also the functioning of the EU in general, as this state’s domestic policy is at odds with the commitments it has assumed at EU level. EU governments must speak with a single voice to prevent the freedom of movement of European citizens being jeopardised and to avoid, in the future, ending up restoring internal border controls. I hope that the European Council meeting to be held in March 2012 will return to this subject and make the right decision: to let Romania and Bulgaria join the Schengen area."@en1
