Norway is not in the EU.

I live in Finland, am a Finnish citzien, and have travelled back and forth from here more than I can count within the Schengen countries.

Twice ?

no its not part of the eu, but it is part of the schengen region. holy ā– ā– ā– ā–  you donā€™t even know the members of the region you claim to travel in so frequently.

Norway has implemented various border control measures contrary to the Schengen agreement, to combat illegal immigration.

Border controls are not contrary to the Schengen Agreement, in fact the agreement specifically allows members of the Schengen region to introduce border controls to ensure national security, amongst other things.

You do know the difference between a definitive statement and an estimation, yes? :smiley:

Thank you - I appreciate your support. I was very tired, but it was satisfying.

I still havenā€™t decided if Iā€™m running again, but if I do, I know that help from voters like you will be key to ensuring you are well represented on the CSM.
