Before the meeting, the Austrian official stated that the Schengen area was non-functional and that he couldn&#8217;t offer a date for Romania&#8217;s accession. According to him, the interest of both countries is that this system works. It is very important that we meet in order to be able to discuss security issues that concern both countries. We had very clear, difficult discussions, but we had them. There are also many common points, he said. Gerhard Karner added that the two countries need the support of the European Commission for safer borders. We recall that at the Justice and Home Affairs Council held at the end of last year, the Austrian minister opposed the accession of Romania and Bulgaria to Schengen.  <\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p><strong class=cms-bold>Bucharest 9.<\/strong>  The Romanian Minister of Defense, Angel&#13;<br \/>\nT\u00eelv\u0103r, co-chairs, today, together with his Polish counterpart, Mariusz&#13;<br \/>\nBlaszczak, a new meeting of the Defense Ministers in the Bucharest 9 Format,&#13;<br \/>\nheld in Warsaw, Poland.
