I don't get it. How does Germany prohibit a non-German-citizen from entering France?

Initially Germany blocked him from entering Germany to speak at a conference. See this post from three weeks ago

Then Germany shut down the entire pro Palestine conference he was supposed to speak at and banned the speakers.

But now Germany placed an EU wide ban on him which is an insane abuse of power and censorship.

I would assume any country that is part of Schengen can ban people from visiting the Schengen area. It's their border after all.
