      We also have North America because of Greenland.

We'll get Asia too as soon as somewhere like Georgia or Kazakhstan join. That just leaves a land boarder with Australia or New Zealand...

    The Gibraltar and Spain border is already a hard border. With Gibraltar being outside of EU Customs area, there is a lot of issues with tobacco smuggling and limits on what you can take across. Lengthy border queues are commonplace here, and as we know. Spain have used the border in political disputes and created longer queues. And yes thousands of people cross from Spain into Gibraltar (UK) every day to work because there are more jobs there and the pay is better than in Spain.

    The most interesting EU border I have crossed is the one in Velke Slemence on the Ukrainian-Slovakian border. A village divided in two by Stalin that until 2005 involved a 200km round trip to get from one side to the other. You can now walk across it after going through passport control. Interesting to see how bad our obsession with dividing the world up can be.

For example, the fact that anyone from anywhere in Europe can work in the country, the fact that we have to give the EU money, the fact that we have to follow laws, but they only give the laws that work in favour. I've never heard anyone complain about the EU Human rights law, or the EU Data Privacy Directive, or The right to be forgotten, the EU Court of Human Rights, or Working time directive,

      "The problem with people who are against the EU is, they only see the parts that they want to see."
      You can pretty much extrapolate that line of thought to every political issue ever. Every political alignment (aside from the odd radical) has good and bad sides, and pretty much everyone sees only the goods in one's ideology and the bads in everybody else's (while at the same time having a blind spot for the bads in one's ideology and the goods in everybody else's).

      The whole Brexit vote was a perfect example of what is wrong with modern politics (in the UK anyway). Democracy is supposed to be about giving the public a choice, a vote. However what it actually ends up being is two or more sides all trying their best to manipulate people into doing what *they* want, rather than just presenting the options clearly as they are.

    Just because border is frictionless, doesn't mean it was abolished. They exist, each country has it's border patrols, even those fully inside Schengen and most if not all countries have check points on border crossing that are just not operating right now. Each country can suspend it's Schengen involment anytime they feel they need to and most of the broders can be fully closed in matters of hours.
    Schengen zone isn't abolishment of borders but agreement to "ignore" them when it comes to civilian movement (trade movement is still mostly checked on each border and military movement is like with any other group of countries, if Germany decide to walk in it's army into Poland for example, they would be shot at at the moment they would refuse to go back by the shortest way possible).
    Also EU by most of EU members definition is not a country. If it would become one, then it would brake constitutions of many countries. For example Poland is only subject to its citizens and no UE law is in power in Poland until Polish govt votes it to be so. By Polish law UE has no power in Poland's borders and if UE would decide it has, then it would became illegal by Polish law and any attempt at executing this power would mean war. Poland pracitcally just plays along UE, cause it wants to have good relations with it, but noone in it recognizes any power of UE. It's a treaty to cooperate, but not to unite.

      "trade movement is still mostly checked on each border"
      Actually, no. Trading within the EU is completely free, there is no check whatsoever.
      You can simple cross a border, buy a sailboat, and sail it to your home and keep it without any question asked. Or order whatever online from a different country and have it sent to you without any formatilies. Or hire a construction company from another country to build a house (for your vacation in yet another country). Trade has been completely free since 1992, long before the Schengen Argreement.

    • @Ussurin

      Checks are random and not every truck is checked, small cars usually aren't checked at all, but if you want to go through UE with a truck, then there's a pretty big chance you get checked. It's random, but countries have a right to do so. They just don't choose to do it often, cause that would go kinda against the prinicple of Schengen. Trade is mostly free of charge, but no country will just let foreign trucks transport unknown stuff inside it's border. Maybe between Germany and France and other "inside" countries it doesn't happen much, but between border countries and others it's pretty often.

    • @hugo3222

      "kinda against the prinicple of Schengen"
      Schengen has nothing to do with trade, it's about movement of people.
      "foreign trucks transport unknown stuff inside it's border"
      By "unknown stuff" you probably mean migrants? That's the reason why trucks are currently checked at some borders. But if the authorities find 50000 bottles of Spanish wine in a truck crossing the border from Poland to Lithuania, what should they do? They don't even have a form to report this, nor does the company have a obligation to report the transport to any authority.
      "but between border countries and others it's pretty often"
      You mean external borders and "other" countries outside the EU. Yes, that's the whole point, isn't it?
      Or do you mean countries with extrenal borders and "other" countries inside the EU? Yes, also makes sense if it is about migrants, but doesn't make any sense if it is about intra-EU trade.

      Have you seen the Dutch-German border? There is no way it can be closed in a matter of hours. If there wasn't a different design of road markings and road signs you wouldn't even notice. At some points there are no signs at all for a few km. (The signs with the country name on them, are only at major crossings)

    • @Ussurin
      @Ussurin 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      szoszk i said most, not all. Of course some borders are unclosable, like Benelux ones and between some other countries that have deep ties for many years already. But most borders are closable in max 3 days, with large portion being able to do it in hours (of course not like 3 or 4, but 15/16)

    I live in Sweden and I recently went to Estonia with my family (my mother's from Tallinn) and bought some drinks in plastics bottles. I drank up all the goodies in the bottles a few days after I came home and wanted to go to the store to return them for money (for the deposit), but found out that you cannot return bottles from other countries. Despite the deposit being virtually the same in both Sweden and Estonia. This utter stupidity, in my opinion, proves that the EU is _not_ a country....
    yet. :p
    P.S: If you wanted to know, what I bought in Estonia, it was kvass and Estonian limonaad. You can't really get those things here.

    "A Schengen-like agreement that's not Schengen"... What if the U.K. had a "Single Market-like agreement that's not the Single Market"? It's a "Hard Brexit", but a "Soft Brexit" in every other thing but letter of the law.

    • @ibx2cat
      @ibx2cat  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      The only point of contention on the single market is free movement, which the UK already has every imaginable opt out on without fully being able to take it away - I think that's the only thing stopping that

    • @cyndie26
      @cyndie26 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      ibx2cat If there are so many British citizens living in EU countries and vice versa, it may be pretty difficult to simply stop freedom of movement entirely, although I'm not sure what else the EU could allow the U.K. to do for non-EU nationals. (I keep seeing that freedom of movement between the U.K. and EU will be here to stay, but that could possibly change.)

      He got mixed up there. Switzerland is fully in Schengen just like any other Schengen member state. It’s the trading relationship that is pretty much a “single market-like agreement that’s not the single market”. Switzerland has dozens of so called bilateral treaties with the EU that give it access to many parts of the EU single market as if it were a member. The trade off is that Switzerland has to follow most EU rules and regulations without having any influence on how they’re written. It also has to make financial contributions to the EU and it has to accept freedom of movement for EU/EEA citizens.

    • @lv3184
      @lv3184 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      ibx2cat
      That is a huge point of contention. The central point of the single market is that it provides the “4 pillars of free movement” for goods, services, capital and people. The EU has never allowed anyone to choose which ones to accept and which ones to reject. Either you have all of them or you have none, just ask Switzerland and Norway. Switzerland’s bilateral treaties with the EU even contain a “guillotine clause” that basically states that if Switzerland were to end free movement of people for EU citizens all bilateral treaties between the EU and Switzerland would become null and void. When the EU says that the 4 freedoms are not negotiable they mean it.

    Borders between Switzerland and the EU still exist and you have border controls (however, this is due to not being part of the custom union; people can move freely though)
    Also, Switzerland is not part of the EEA
    Finally, Switzerland is part of Schengen. Through bilateral agreements, but it's part of it nonetheless.

    Estonian citizenship is indeed easy to get - you only have to show you have a relationship to the country, learn the language, pass the test and do a citizenship test meaning having to write down things russians are unable to agree with (Peace of Tartu, illegal occupation...) meaning estonia still has 14% of population without any citizenship at all
    so i wouldn't really call it the easy & preferred entry to the EU

    • @vrenak
      @vrenak 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Well if those russians aren't accepting that invading another country isn't legal, or recognise a negotiated peace after the people revolted after a long occupation, maybe it's their problem and not Estonias. If you're living in a country and don't want to learn the language and adapt somewhat to the local way of life, it's not the locals that have a problem, it's you. If they really hate Estonia and it's existence so much, I'm pretty sure they're free to leave whenever they see fit.

    People who have been granted asylum in an EU country are allowed to move in the Schengen area but only within the same restrictions as other non-EU nationals. Asylum seekers who have not yet been granted asylum are not allowed to leave the country.
    Technically you're supposed to apply for asylum in the first EU country you enter but as seen in the recent refugee crisis, that's not a system that actually works. It would have been impossible for Greece to process everyone's applications so they just let them pass through and apply elsewhere.

    Please stop saying the EU is going to become one country. Thats the same as I would say NAFTA is one country. It's just a Union for trade with some internal laws. But the debate on these laws is very complicated, so the EU is far from becoming one country. Even so country's like the UK quit the EU at the moment. At the moment the EU is closer to falling apart than becoming one country.

      Jesse Jansen don’t compare NAFTA to the EU. European Union is a POLITICAL UNION with its own parliament, the same laws, and structure.

      If free movement between the UK and Ireland, which has existed pretty much since Irish independence, remains in place, I suspect that border controls between the Common Travel Area (UK+IRL) and the Schengen Area (EU) will have to become stricter to enforce immigration controls for British citizens. Irish citizens will retain their right to live and work in the EU while British citizens will lose the right to live and work in the EU.

      No, the people who argued for brexit explicitly said that they wanted to restrict EU immigration. Free movement between the EU and UK will end, which affects Europeans only. Not much will change for third country (non-EU) nationals because freedom of movement never applied to them anyways.
