The fact that EU membership doesn't just automatically confer schengen membership is so stupid
Like sit down Austria and Switzerland, you chose this lack of input for everything that isn't just being racist
What does Switzerland have to do with this?
Schengen and Non-EU like Austria
...but Austria is in the EU though?
Yup. Maybe they're confusing it with non-NATO?
Switzerland was never in the EU
No but they're in Schengen, the fact that they chose that arrangement was my point, countries that refuse EU membership shouldn't be able to block EU member states from further integrating with the EU.
It's not Switzerland doing the blocking, it's Austria. And Austria is a full EU member.
