Schengen zone
org_international
The Schengen Zone is a group of European countries that have abolished passport and border controls at their mutual borders. Recent developments include changes to visa processing times for Russian citizens, closures of some visa centers (such as Cyprus), and discussions within the European Commission about implementing targeted restrictions or stricter visa policies, though no unanimous decision on a full ban has been reached.
