    Countries have been “temporarily suspending shengen agreement” for tons of reason without putting the EU at risk. I remember being stuck in trafic over 1h when crossing the French border in the summer 2016, where between a football cup, and the terror attacks, the police was “checking the border” ( to be understood as, police kept only one lane open on the highway, and even as setup a tent and a parking so they can “randomly check” some cars.

    I also remember covid time when travelling within EU was involving a lot of paperwork.

    Not sure what’s happening right now in Germany, but it’s not the first nor the last time, that the open-borders are suspended.
