Schengen rejection: Austrian businesses in Romania face boycott calls

  1. I said this elsewhere and going to repeat it here.

    There is no huge Austrian community in Romania working for these companies. The workforce is mostly from Romania, so by boycotting them you kind of end up boycotting your own population.

  2. Instead of asking for the arrest of corrupt Austrian and Romanian businessmen and politicans, let’s boycott companies that directly employ 100.000 Romanians.

    Maybe I am just dumb, but this looks like politicans again playing the population and finding a scapegoat.

    The easiest way to get a reaction out of Austria is to arrest the corrupt Austrian businessmen and put them infront of a judge for their corruption bad mistreatment of Romania ressources. There should be enough proof in local and national offices of Romanians politicans, since they had to bribe many officers and civil servants to get so far. Otherwise Austria will just cut their loss and invest in other countries.

  3. Boycotts rarely work. Better do a very detailed tax audits of Austrian companies. Since apparently Romania is ‘corrupt’, this strict adherence to regulations should impress Austrians. Also since there is a misconception about Romania being crap at protecting its border, dispel it by doing very through border inspections of any goods traded by Austrian companies.

  4. There will be no boycott because nobody really cares about Schengen. This has been and will continue to be an artificial subject pushed by politicians to divert from other problems.
