Today with David McCullagh · Rollout of EU’s new Entry/Exit system causes huge disruption for passengers · 27 May 2026 podcast

And I have had a number of people contact me on Instagram following this video that I made of my experience that went viral saying, you know what, I think we're going to skip our European holiday this summer because it's no fun.

to sit in another queue for four hours when you arrive and potentially another three when you leave.

Now, obviously, that's just anecdotal, but it's clear that the airlines are concerned about this as well.

Look at the campaign that Ryanair has launched on social media, basically saying this has to stop.

It's madness.

Thank you so much, David.

Thanks.

GZERO World with Ian Bremmer · War and Peace in 2025, with Clarissa Ward and Comfort Ero · 20 Dec 2025 podcast

Thank you for having me.

The thing that has hit me the hardest, which perhaps is not obvious to many people around the world, is the fact that as international journalists, we're still not able to get inside Gaza and report from on the ground.

There have been some opportunities for journalists to go into the so-called yellow zone of the Gaza Strip, the 53% of it that is under the control of the IDF.

They're embedded with the idea.

And what's crucial.

And again, I think a lot of people don't realize this.

You cannot talk to Palestinians if you go in with the idea for pretty obvious reasons.

Right.

So what that means is that we are really playing catch up constantly, trying desperately to put together the pieces of the puzzle together.

We obviously are working closely with Palestinian journalists on the ground who have been doing heroic and courageous work.

But now that there's a ceasefire, which really had been the ostensible reason given by the IDF for not allowing international journalists in.

And I should add, there have been regular infractions and it's still a dangerous, volatile situation on the ground.

But still.
