02:30But I just want to play you for one second.

02:32A comment yesterday on the red carpet, Euronews was there, Jamie Greer, he is the U.S. Commerce Ambassador.

02:38Let's take a look.

02:40The United States has had significant concerns for many years about the Digital Markets Act and similar legislation in the EU.

02:47Many times the thresholds are set to the extent that it's nearly only U.S. companies that are captured.

02:53La enforcement es bastante agresiva a veces.

02:57Comprying with the law can become challenging.

03:00Sometimes our companies feel like the goalposts are moved.

03:03The fines can be quite large.

03:05We know that these laws are important to them.

03:08We just want to make sure we're controlling for our companies that have global business models,

03:12that their global revenues aren't affected,

03:14and a variety of other things that perhaps could be modified to help accommodate their concerns and ours.

03:20And that was Jamie Sun-Greer, the U.S. Trade Representative.

03:24Maeve, that kind of language on a red carpet with the U.S. Trade Commissioner there,

03:28but also the Europeans next to him.

03:30That was very aggressive.

03:31This is not a very polite thing to say when you're meeting and you're being hosted by someone else,

03:36but of course they are making a very clear point.

03:38They want to see the implementation change,

03:40and they want to see American companies act in a way that they argue would be fair to their revenues.

03:46The problem for the Europeans, of course, is that this goes beyond trade.

03:50This is now about the legislation and the rule of the EU.

03:53You could argue there is a form of political interference.

03:56And yesterday, a U.S. official and a European official told me,

03:59we see this are two completely different negotiations.

04:01Steel is one thing.

04:02The digital rules are a different thing.

04:05Okay, Maria Tadeo.

04:06Euronews' EU editor, thank you so much for all those details.

04:09And of course, for more on that story,

04:11you can find specialized reports by our EU news team,

04:14and of course our trade reporter, Peggy Corna, on Euronews.com.

04:17But for now, coming up, we'll be joined by Margarethe Vesteyer,

04:21the former EU competition commissioner that President Trump used to call the tax lady,

04:26known as one of the main trailblazers of the EU's landmark digital rulebook,

04:31and also for having inspired the famous Danish TV show Borgen.

04:34The Danish liberal politician spent two terms in Brussels.

04:38She was also a government minister back home,

04:40a deputy prime minister and a party leader.

04:42So, Margarethe Vesteyer, thank you so much for joining us this morning on Europe Today from Copenhagen.

04:48Lovely to have you with us.

04:50It's such a pleasure to be with you.

04:51Thank you very much for having me.

04:53So, look, you were listening to Maria Tadeo there on set.

04:56The message yesterday, cut your digital rules for lower EU or US steel tariffs.

05:01Are the Americans cornering the Europeans here, do you think?

05:04Well, these are two completely different discussions.

05:07One is steel and aluminium.

05:09It has been going on for years.

05:10The second one is about how do we live with technology?

05:14Because promises were made to Europeans that digital services would be safe to use,

05:20just like any other product or service,

05:23and that the market actually would be open for competition

05:26so that we can get new products and services.

05:29This is not crazy.

05:30This is not against anyone.

05:32This is normal.

05:33This is what you would ask in a normal market.

05:36But how would you be handling this if you were still in office?

05:39We can see a lot of your work being undone here, the work that you put in place.

05:43Well, I see that the Commission is continuing the work done because promises were made to Europeans.

05:50You know, when one discusses, for instance, the Dintra Services Act,

05:54this is a very sort of simple piece of legislation just asking companies who are on our hands,

06:00in our devices every day for their products to be safe to use.

06:05And of course, what the DMA is asking is that you do not misuse your market power,

06:10but, you know, that you have a competitive market.

06:13You know, actually, this is everything that you could ask for.

06:16And actually, you do see some of the US states pushing for some of the same things

06:22because it is absolutely essential that you can trust also the digital services

06:26that most of us are using every day.

06:29But that is not how the Americans see it.

06:31Do you think this could be the beginning of the end of the so-called Brussels effect,

06:34where the EU has been setting global standards?

06:37Now it could be the United States.

06:38Well, we should not be setting global standards.

06:42We set standards for ourselves because we have a long, long, long tradition

06:46of making sure that protection of consumers goes hand in hand with innovation.

06:51That has been the goal.

06:53And actually, that has been achieved.

06:54If you see how that digital market is changing and more and more also European companies,

07:00they need to be able to reach their customers and not being kept out by gatekeepers.

07:06And how do you strike that balance, though?

07:07That is, of course, the problem, so that innovation can thrive

07:11and we also can have strong regulation.

07:15Well, innovation thrives when you see that I want to solve a problem,

07:19not just I want to produce another service.

07:22And when you look at the European ecosystem, when it comes to everything digital,

07:26we have very strong entrepreneurs.

07:29We have very strong innovation.

07:31The thing is that we do not make sure that they have a market.

07:34And the Digital Markets Act is exactly about this.

07:37Making sure that it's your ideas, your work ethic, the people on your team

07:41that gives you a fair chance of getting to the market.

07:44We've been discussing this with the Americans ever since I took office.

07:48This is not new.

07:49What is news is that we actually deliver to Europeans as promised.

07:53But did you over-regulate during your term?

07:55Well, I see in the omnibus proposal just tabled that there are actually some quite pragmatic,

08:05sensible simplifications when it comes, for instance, to cookies,

08:10when it comes to when to implement and how to enforce the AI Act.

08:14And I think that is really important because, of course, you can always do better.

08:18But one thing is important, and that is that we have promised Europeans that their services would be safe to use

08:25for their mental health, for their democracy as such.

08:29And that is, of course, core in any democracy that you stand by the promises made.

08:33And that U.S.-EU trade deal, Margate Veshter, was it a bad deal for Europe?

08:37I think it was a wise thing not to take the bait and escalate the conflict.

08:44Of course, some areas are not within that deal.

08:48But I think in a world like this, some level of predictability is actually worthwhile.

08:53And we could conclude the single market and kind of make up for the increased tariffs.

08:58And just what about Ukraine?

09:00That is, of course, a big story we're keeping a very close eye on this week.

09:03What should the Europeans be doing now to make sure they're heard in these very important talks,

09:07to make sure they have a seat at the table?

09:10Well, having followed the development over the last week, you know,

09:15I was completely devastated when I saw the first U.S. proposal.

09:20But the negotiations that have been ongoing actually shows that there has been a listening,

09:26that European concerns and how we have obliged ourselves to peace in our region.

09:33I think that is a positive development.

09:36But so far, it's completely impossible to say what comes out of it.

09:40But I think that the ask to be at the table is completely legitimate.

09:45OK, Margate Veshter, thank you so much for that.

09:47And I hope you can join us next time here in the studio when you're passing through Brussels.

09:51But now...

09:52Would be my pleasure.

09:53As you heard now, Ukraine's future is still unsure after the Kremlin said that the European counterproposal

09:58does not work, quote.

10:00Leaders from the Coalition of the Willing, i.e. Ukraine's allies, will be gathering today via video call.

10:05Our reporters, Jakob Yanis and Jorge Libreiro, have been comparing the various proposals on the table.

10:10Bypassing Brussels, Washington presented a 28-point blueprint directly negotiated with Moscow

10:19to put an end to Russia's all-out war against Ukraine.

10:23Europe has now responded.

10:25A side-by-side comparison reveals three fundamental differences.

10:29What are they?

10:31First, money.

10:32The U.S.-Russia plan would unblock the frozen Russian assets to create two investment vehicles,

10:38with Washington taking half the profits from the Ukraine's reconstruction fund.

10:42The European plan insists that the assets must remain frozen until Russia fully compensates Ukraine for the destruction.

10:50Second, security.

10:52The U.S.-Russia plan would cap Ukraine's army at 600,000 personnel at all times.

10:58Europe raises that limit to 800,000 in peacetime only,

11:04giving Kiev the flexibility to scale up if threatened.

11:08Crucially, the Europeans demand a seat on a joint security task force alongside Ukraine,

11:14refusing to let Washington and Moscow decide the continent's fate alone.

11:19Third, territory.

11:21The U.S.-Russia plan accepts occupied Crimea, Lugansk and Donetsk regions as...

11:28...to recognise borders changed by force.

11:31It all leads us to one fundamental question.

11:35Who decides the borders of Europe?

11:38An inviting military force?

11:40Or the European principles of sovereignty?

11:42And for more context on this, we can now bring in our EU news editor, Maria Sayo, back.

11:51Welcome back.

11:52Look, the Kremlin has rejected this European plan, but there seems to be a bit of cautious optimism in Brussels.

11:57Where do we go from here?

11:58Well, Maeve, no question, because that original 28-point plan obviously was clearly tilted in Russia's favour.

12:04However, the issue here, and this is the crux of the matter, is that what works for Russia does not work for Ukraine,

12:09and what works for Ukraine does not work for Russia.

12:12Nonetheless, this 28-point plan has changed.

12:15We now understand it is 19 points.

12:18The Ukrainians also now...

12:19Yesterday, President Zelensky just checked this set.

12:22After Geneva, remember, they met on Sunday.

12:24There are fewer points.

12:25It is no longer 28.

12:27Many correct considerations have been taken into account,

12:30but there is a lot of work that needs to be done,

12:33and it will be difficult to produce a final document.

12:36So, obviously, what we see here is that the Ukrainians now believe they have managed to insert some of their demands.

12:42There is speculation that President Trump and President Zelensky could meet in America this week.

12:48There is no date for it.

12:50This would be for the critical political points.

12:52And then, of course, it does also seem that this deadline for Thursday has somewhat eased.

12:57And that's, of course, indeed good news.

12:59And just briefly, the Coalition of the Willing will be gathering today.

13:02What are your expectations for their meetings?

13:03Well, Coalition of the Willing, and, of course, a reminder for our viewers,

13:07this is a group of countries that are supportive of the UK, some of the EU,

13:11but not just led by the UK and France.

13:14They will gather today.

13:16The idea is what else can the Europeans offer and put on the table to sway this deal in favor of Ukraine.

13:23I was told, however, yesterday by a diplomat, it seems that things are moving better.

13:28There is less panic compared to a week ago, but also something very important.

13:31The Europeans believe that this plan, the 28-point plan, as it was done, is over.

13:37And this is not a static negotiation.

13:39It can improve.

13:40So, indeed, cautious optimism.

13:42And, of course, this topic will be dominating MEPs while they gather as well in Strasbourg this week.

13:46And, Maria, today you'll be in Strasbourg as well for us tomorrow.

13:49So we look forward for your update then.

13:50But now this does bring this edition of Europe Today to an end.
