00:00The European Union has welcomed the latest progress towards a peace plan in Ukraine.
00:07On the sidelines of a summit in Angola between the EU and Africa,
00:11the 27 leaders held an informal meeting on Monday following discussions between Ukraine, the United States and Europe.
00:18To the president of the European Council, they represent a new momentum.
00:23The United States and Ukraine informed us that the discussions were constructive and that progress was achieved on several issues.
00:36We welcome this step forward and some issues remain to be resolved, but the direction is positive.
00:47Furthermore, the president of the European Commission emphasized that there was still work to be done,
00:52but also what she called a solid basis for moving forward.
00:55Ursula von der Leyen reiterated the fundamental principles for establishing a peace plan.
01:02Ukraine's territory and sovereignty must be respected.
01:08Only Ukraine, as a sovereign country, can make decisions regarding its armed forces.
01:17The choice of their destiny is in their own hands.
01:23I also want to emphasize Europe's centrality in the country's future.
01:28The leaders reiterated that the 27 must be fully involved in all decisions concerning the Union,
01:33such as enlargement towards Ukraine or the use of frozen Russian assets.
01:42The EU has confirmed a financial contribution of 82 million euros to the Palestinian Authority
01:48to support stabilization efforts in the West Bank at the first meeting of the Palestine Donner Group in Brussels on Thursday.
01:54The Palestinian Minister of Planning and International Cooperation tells Euronews
01:59this renewed financial support is key to keep the Palestinian Authority afloat
02:04and to provide basic services to the Palestinian people.
02:08Yet the minister says that the best way to strengthen the Palestinian Authority's financial situation
02:13is the release of $4 billion of tax revenues withheld by Israel.
02:17Under the 1993 Oslo Accords, Israel collects taxes and custom duties imposed on goods imported into Palestinian territories
02:26and is then supposed to transfer the funds to the Palestinian Authority.
02:30Israel has been withholding our tax revenues for almost six consecutive months.
02:36We haven't received our money from Israel for six consecutive months,
02:41and that money constitutes 68% of the Palestinian revenues.
02:47No country in the world can function without 68% of its revenues.
02:53The 60 delegations attending the Palestine Donner Group meeting
02:57also stressed the need for the Palestinian Authority
03:00to pursue its fiscal, economic, governance, social and education reforms.
03:04We have also what we call the reform matrix between us and the European Union.
03:11It is built around four main pillars and 53 actions or milestones.
03:21So far, we are overachieving.
03:24What we have achieved out of the 53 milestones, we have achieved 21 of the key milestones,
03:30and then the rest are already scheduled to be implemented next year and in 2027.
03:37This meeting took place a few days after the adoption of the UN Security Council resolution
03:42on the US-led Gaza Peace Plan
03:44and shows that the EU still hopes to play a role in the Gaza conflict resolution.
03:48Former French President Nicolas Sarkozy is publishing a book about his three weeks behind bars,
04:00set to hit shelves on December 10th.
04:03His publisher Fayard said the memoir titled A Prisoner's Diary is 216 pages long,
04:10just under 11 pages per day that Sarkozy spent in prison.
04:13Sarkozy, who was separated from the general prison population, trailed the release in a post on X.
04:21A quote from the book was also released as a teaser.
04:24In prison, there is nothing to see and nothing to do.
04:27Sarkozy was convicted in September of criminal conspiracy over a scheme to obtain campaign funds
04:33for his 2007 presidential race.
04:35A Paris court gave him a five-year sentence and he became the first former French president
04:42to end up behind bars since Nazi collaborator Philippe Pétain.
04:46He was released pending appeal on the 10th of November.
04:48Theia, we believe, is an ancient planet that smashed into the Earth about four and a half billion years ago.
05:02It was probably around the size of Mars, and when it smashed into the Earth, it essentially demolished itself.
05:19It kicked up a lot of debris into space, along with some of the Earth.
05:22And over time, that debris coalesced together to form the Moon.
05:37The only remnants we have are bits of rock that are embedded within the Earth and also that make up the Moon.
05:43So by studying those rocks and their chemical signatures, we can begin to paint a picture of where Theia came from.
05:49What we tend to find is that objects in different parts of the solar system will share similar isotope ratios.
05:56So if you can determine Theia's own isotope ratios, you can determine where it came from.
06:01One of the things about this research that does make it so exciting is not only is it helping to paint a picture of what happened to the Earth four and a half billion years ago,
06:20but also it's able to almost exactly pinpoint where this object came from.
06:27We're talking about a planet that doesn't exist anymore. Theia hasn't existed in four and a half billion years.
06:32It was completely vaporized, essentially. And yet, with a good amount of precision, we can figure out where it came from.
06:40It's just amazing.
06:41Thanks.
06:42I love you.
06:43Thanks.
08:44What we are able to do here is that we are also able to create a resection plan to simulate how the tumor can be cut out.
08:58This also allows us to calculate the volume of the liver and also the remnant and the resect.
09:06What we have learned from the clinicians is that the real value is the spatial feeling and the understanding of the anatomical structures that you get from looking at it from different angles,
09:36current care is looking at big grey CT imaging, slice after slice after slice and trying to piece it together.
09:57So you imagine five surgeons trying to plan a complicated case.
10:01They all have different opinions, different ways of thinking about it.
10:04Younger ones don't dare to say too much to the professor.
10:07So then you have this very unique opportunity to collaborate and look at the images and expand the images, go inside the images and actually plan better surgery.
10:17We've had cases where we've had cases where a surgeon has actually called back a patient who he had decided was inoperable, sent him home and said, we can't do anything for you.
10:37He had taken our platform and then he realized that actually he could operate.
10:43So he brought the case back in and the man, as we followed, is alive and well with his children.
11:01The 3D models are put inside to help with navigation.
11:04And our ultimate goal, of course, is that a surgeon would have on a lens and be looking at the patient.
11:12So the hologram would be overlaid and fixed onto the body of a patient.
11:16So you imagine the liver so that it was fixed and you would operate in 3D through the hologram.
11:34And that is where he feels like I read.
11:36I thank you all for keeping me interested in the image.
11:37And when I look at the patient and you see some of therest movement that I took to help him to walk.
11:40And if we look into when I look at the patient, I think the resilient mandate to help him to work with talking sign up is add to up the knowledge that I was missing from.
11:44And after my brain Center would be overlaid and there would be an analogy that we tell him to perform best.
