US EditionEU Unveils €100 Billion Military Schengen Zone Plan by 2027
The EU aims to cut border permit times from up to 45 days to three days in peacetime, investing €100 billion to upgrade transport infrastructure and streamline military logistics.
- Yesterday, Brussels unveiled a plan to set up an EU-wide Military Mobility Area by the end of 2027, aiming for a 'military Schengen' across regulations and infrastructure.
- Amid the war in Ukraine, EU member states face delays up to 45 days for military transport permits, prompting a plan to cut red tape and harmonise national laws and bureaucracy.
- The package would create the European Military Mobility Enhanced Response System, set three-day and six-hour cross-border targets, fast-track permits, end annual renewals, and establish a transport group with a national coordinator, solidarity pool, and mobility catalogue.
- Funding-Wise, the plan would require 100 billion euros, but only 1.7 billion was earmarked in the current multiannual budget, and the proposed budget is 17.65 billion euros for 500 projects.
- The proposal also positions the EU to integrate Ukraine and Moldova and invest in critical choke points, while NATO urges more legislative power and counts 23 members' spending toward alliance targets.
