Pourquoi l’Europe menace la Grèce d’une expulsion de Schengen
Selon le Financial Times, la Grèce pourrait être exclue temporairement de la zone Schengen, en raison de son refus de coopérer pour le contrôle de ses frontières. Mais les raisons invoquées semblent peu justifiées.

Kicking Greece out of Schengen won’t stop the refugee crisis
Blaming Greece’s lax border controls for the influx of refugees into central Europe is an easy way for the EU to abdicate its own responsibilities

Can Schengen be suspended because of Greece? Should it be?
A leaked Council document (see separate blog post) suggests in effect that the Schengen system should be suspended for up two years, due to ‘systemic deficiencies’ in the control of external borders by Greece. That would allow any Schengen States which wish to do so to maintain or introduce border checks on their ‘internal’ borders with each other. Probably not all Schengen States would take this opportunity, but many would (especially since a number of them already do so). This follows a recent press report in the Financial Times (paywalled), which states that some Member States are considering threatening to throw Greece out of the Schengen system, due to its management of refugees and migrants at the external borders.
