## Resource

The EU’s new EES border system is causing chaos for travelers, with airports in Portugal facing six-hour waits, missed connections, and overwhelmed infrastructure. Airlines demand a pause until summer ends, while Portugal’s PM threatens to suspend the system unless delays ease. The EU insists the biometric checks aren’t to blame, but Greece has reversed its earlier exemption for British visitors—highlighting a continent struggling to balance security, efficiency, and tourism.
