Germany has announced that it will veto the entry of Romania and Bulgaria into the Schengen Area. Perhaps it is time for Romanians to stop being the victims of their partners' political games, writes a Romanian journalist in a leader article. 
The comments of UK Independence Party leader Nigel Farage regarding the "influx" of foreign workers who would arrive in the Britain following the opening up of the UK labour market to Bulgarians and Romanians in 2014 has provoked angry reactions from Sofia. One young Edinburgh-educated Bulgarian woman wrote an open letter to the Eurosceptic MEP. 
Ahead of the end of immigration controls on Romania and Bulgaria in January 2014, some UK ministers are thinking of running a campaign to deter a repeat of the 2004 “wave” of immigration when eight former communist countries gained EU working rights. But the eurozone crisis makes this prospect less likely. 
Hard-hit by the crisis, Lisbon is wooing rich investors from its former colonies. Anyone who invests in the country has a good chance of obtaining a visa — and an open door to the rest of Europe. 
Is the shadow of Brussels beneficial or not to a country's democracy? In the midst of the debate on the dismissal of Romanian President Traian Băsescu, the Romanian press is divided on the issue, demonstrating a certain ambivalence towards the European Union. 
Europe must renegotiate agreements on the free movement of people, or France will cease to apply them. The ultimatum announced by Nicolas Sarkozy, currently campaigning for re-election to the French presidency, has largely been viewed as a bid to attract more votes rather than an attempt to initiate real political change. 
In launching an anti-immigrant website, the Dutch populist has once again issued a provocation in bad taste. But the good news is that it encourages us to examine the relationship between Europeans from two parts of the continent, writes a Czech columnist.
