Quite the contrary; the crises are real, the resolutions fake.
There is really nothing concrete on the agreements so far that i've seen, apart from the 7 day visa free travel for islands. Nothing is binding, there is nothing to bind. But no mention of third countries or EU, which would be good if we can keep this between us.
edit. Full agreement:
