15 years of visa-free travel in Europe - Deutsche Welle

"The European Union began the process of abolishing its internal borders 15 years ago by implementing the Schengen Agreement. DW takes a look at the positives and the negatives of Europe's visa-free Schengen Area."

"Sceptics in Germany initially thought the treaty on the abolition of border checks in Europe would be a major security disaster. With 15 years of experience, there are fewer pessimists around now."
