Europe: EES border controls change from September 6

Euronews Portugal4 September 2026 at 12:37

From September 6, EES controls at European borders will undergo significant changes, with the end of the temporary flexibilities that were in place. The Entry/Exit System (EES) is an electronic system that automatically records the entry and exit of third-country travelers at the borders of the Schengen Area. Sector experts express concerns that the return to normal system operation could once again cause chaos at European borders. This concern arises in a context of preparation for the full implementation of the system, which aims to strengthen border security and automate traveler control.

Church/Environment: Head of the 'Caring for Our Common Home' Network calls for 'conversion of the heart' in face of ecological urgency

Juan Ambrósio, head of the 'Caring for Our Common Home' Network, warned in an interview about the urgent need for behavioral change in the face of environmental damage, defending that "it is still possible to reverse" the global crisis "by choice" or "by conviction". The Portuguese theologian stressed that, on a planet with limited resources, excessive material demands can only be "at the expense of others having less and less", calling for a "conversion of the heart" that associates the encyclical 'Laudato Si' with 'Fratelli Tutti'. Ambrósio also recalled the Pope's call for the preservation of water resources and announced initiatives for the Season of Creation, including online meetings and ecumenical celebrations on the banks of the Tagus River.
