European Commission is recommending that 5 nations from the borderless Schengen travel zone be allowed to extend internal frontier controls for another three months because of the exceptional circumstances caused by migration into Europe. The Schengen Area comprises 26 European states that have officially abolished border control at their mutual borders. <br/><br/>EU Migration Commissioner Dimitris Avramopoulos said, European Union nations – Austria, Germany, Denmark and Sweden and non-member Norway should be allowed to continue the border checks since the arrival of migrants and asylum-seekers into those countries is still significant. EU Commission specially mentioned Greece, which still has some 60,000 refugees and migrants.
