can someone explain to me what this schengen thing is?
The Schengen Area (English pronunciation: /ˈʃɛŋən/) is the area comprising 26 European countries that have abolished passport and any other type of border control at their common borders, also referred to as internal borders. It mostly functions as a single country for international travel purposes, with a common visa policy. The Area is named after the Schengen Agreement. Countries in the Schengen Area have eliminated internal border controls with the other Schengen members and strengthened external border controls with non-Schengen states. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schengen_Area
Croatia is a candidate state

Why?
Because they do not control their borders and are currently letting everyone pass through, regardless of their documents

They closed the borders though. They were documenting them. At least in the begining, not sure now
Germany closes borders, basically saying to the Balkan region and good luck to ya'll
The refugees pushing through to the Austrian - German border thinking Angela will press them against her voluptious bosom.
The head of immigration in Germany resigns cause he made a bit of an oopsie and misjudged the crisis.
Germany is still accepting all refugees, its just border control for now. Nothing more. They can all pass still.
Not according the refugee teenage girl that was periscoping from the German Austrian border.
She was mad that they were kept there for days, bad weather, rain and cold and nobody was helping them. They are humans not animals and all they want is to procceed into Germany.
That's the only thing she kept repeating basically.
and good luck to ya'll
