If the Schengen Area is to endure, it needs to evolve in a similar direction, establishing a common institution responsible for securing external borders, while reinforcing the framework for internal security. As it stands, defense of Schengen’s external borders is up to individual member states, including one, Greece, that is already facing a devastating economic crisis.
如果申根区想要获得持久力，就需要向类似的方向迈进，成立一个负责保护外部边界的共同机构，溶蚀强化内部安全框架。目前，申根外部边界的防卫由个体成员国负责，其中之一——希腊正在遭遇灾难性的经济危机。仅有的旨在帮助外部边界管理的泛欧洲项目——欧洲边防局（Frontex）规模严重受限。
