EU ministers to propose major Schengen changes by end of 2015

EU ministers to propose major Schengen changes by end of 2015

France says the EU will rush through proposals for major changes to the rules of the passport-free Schengen zone by the end of the year to boost security. 

The French interior minister made the remarks after a crisis meeting with his EU counterparts in Brussels in the wake of the attacks in Paris. Cazeneuve said France will maintain control along all its borders as long as the imminent threat of attacks remains. EU countries also agreed on plans for an airline passenger registry and clampdown on arms trafficking. The interior ministers of the 28-nation bloc also agreed to share intelligence about European nationals who return after fighting in Syria and Iraq. However, they failed to commit to any wider coordination of intelligence services.
