David Cameron and Bulgaria as not Part of the Border-free Schengen zone

Mina Boycheva 18/12/2015

In a recent visit in Bulgaria the UK Prime Minister David Cameron has visited the country’s border with Turkey, which happens to be an external border of the European Union. David Cameron urged the other nations to follow the example of Bulgaria and said that the countries from the European Union are facing a flow of migrants and should make efforts to control their borders.

The countries from the European Union are facing an increasing influx of migrants and they should learn from the Bulgarian efforts to keep the external controls, said the UK Prime Minister David Cameron at the border with Turkey.

According to Cameron, it is very important for Europe to have strong external borders by sea, air and land like the one Bulgaria has with Turkey. In 2015 around 27 000 migrants came through the 150 mile border between Turkey and Bulgaria, which is still not part of the travel free and border free Schengen but acts as an external border of the European Union.

The countries from the European Union are facing an increasing influx of migrants and they should learn from the Bulgarian efforts to keep the external controls, said the UK Prime Minister David Cameron at the border with Turkey. The states of the European Union have agreed to take emergency action in order to shore up the external borders of the union with stricter control.
