Does the Schengen Agreement include new countries that have joined the EU?

Although there have been a number of new countries including Poland, Hungary and the Czech Republic who have recently joined the EU, these countries have NOT yet joined the Schengen Agreement. As a result a Schengen Visa issued by a Schengen Country such as France will NOT currently cover these new EU members and a visa from these new members will NOT cover you for travel to the Schengen countries.
