Austria considers border patrols post Schengen
The European Union's eastern border controls are moving further east. By the end of the year what's known as the Schengen Zone - the area in which you can enjoy passport free travel - will expand to include Slovakia, Slovenia, Hungary, the Czech Republic and Poland. Austria has borders with four of those countries and under Schengen rules can end its eastern border patrols once its neighbours join Schengen, as it has done with other neighbours, Germany and Italy for instance. But Vienna is suggesting army recruits will still be deployed along the eastern border.
