26 May, 19:17

(ANSA) - BERLIN - Bavarian Interior Minister, Joachim Herrmann, has evoked a procedure for violation of European treaties against Italy and Austria because of the transit of migrants to Germany.

"The continuous violations of the Schengen treaty must be considered at the European level", said the CSU politician, "otherwise an infringement procedure" should be considered.

Hermann has called on the German government to act tougher against Rome and Vienna. According to the Bavarian politician Berlin must lodge a formal complaint in Brussels and when needed, countries that do not keep their commitments should exit from the Schengen zone. (ANSA).
