Romania and Bulgaria WON'T join EU passport-free zone after Germany vows to veto Schengen bid over corruption fears | Mail Online
Oh Dear, what's the betting the French & Germans say no and we get a million?
Germany will veto Romania and Bulgaria's bid to join the Schengen passport-free zone if the Eastern European countries push for membership this week.
Interior minister Hans-Peter Friedrich warned both nations that if they insist on entry into the scheme 'Germany will veto it and they will fail.'
The countries are expected to apply to join the group in a meeting on Thursday, but their bid has been undermined by fears non-Europeans could bribe their way in to the countries and then travel elsewhere in the EU with ease.
