The temporary termination of the Schengen agreement in Austria means that Ukrainians must be ready to wait in a line while crossing the border, Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary Ambassador of Ukraine to Austria Oleksandr Scherba wrote on Facebook.

“Dear Ukrainians, concerning the so-called termination of Schengen in Austria, for Ukrainian citizens nothing changes, apart from one thing. While crossing the Hungarian-Austrian or Austrian-German border via autobahn [on route of migrants], you as other Europeans must be ready to stand in line and show a passport with visa. All the rest remains the same,” the ambassador said.

As a reminder, Austria announced temporary termination of the Schengen agreement because of the migrant flow to the European Union.
