while bulgaria and romania, which joined the eu on 1 january 2007, are also legally bound to join the schengen area, implementation has been delayed. on 15 october 2010, bulgaria and romania joined sis ii for law enforcement cooperation. on 9 june 2011, the council of ministers concluded that the evaluation process had been completed successfully and that the two countries fulfilled all technical accession criteria. bulgaria's and romania's bids to join the schengen area were approved by the european parliament in june 2011 but rejected by the council of ministers in september 2011, with the dutch and finnish governments citing concerns about shortcomings in anti-corruption measures and in the fight against organised crime. although the original plan was for the schengen area to open its air and sea borders with bulgaria and romania by march 2012, and its land borders by july 2012, continued opposition from germany, finland and the netherlands has delayed the two countries' entry to the schengen area. on 4 october 2017, the "european parliament voted for "access" of bulgaria and romania to the schengen information system." moreover, "the final political decision whether the two countries can become part of the schengen area and stop systematic border checks with neighbouring eu countries must be taken unanimously by all sides of the european council." on december 11, 2018, the european parliament voted unanimously for the resolution in favour of accepting both countries, requiring the european council to "act swiftly" on the matter.
