Schengen is NOT a EU achievement. Nations can sign Schengen, but are never forced to join the EU, nations can be EU members but are allowed to refuse the Schengen treaties. | ||

Yes. Though it's part of the same broader 'European project', so it's permissible for people to be a bit lax when informally discussing these things. | ||

Schengen is absolutely an EU achievement, although for some time it developed separately; it is now absorbed into EU law. Note that every Schengen country outside of the EU is a member of EFTA and to be in Schengen has to sign an association treaty with the EU. | ||
