Most EU countries are ignoring Schengen lately and are again making border checks on major border checkpoints. For public, this is for fighting the terrorism and illegal migrants smuggling in the EU zones and the funny think is that they are only checking at bigger border checkpoints. All the small ones are empty and anyone can cross them without a friction. I regularly cross two neighboring countries and I know the situation very well. 

So much about fighting terrorism 🤦🏼 

 Exactly.

I liked EU only because of Schengen.

Without that i have no prob with leaving EU as a country...
