00:30EU leaders from Brussels to Berlin have called for imprisoned Iranian protesters to be released.
00:36The country was plunged into blackout last Thursday after mass demonstration spread due to dire economic conditions.
00:43Authorities have responded with internet shutdowns, arrests and lethal force that has brought about hundreds of deaths and arrests, according to human rights groups.
00:51For more on this, I'm joined here in the studio by Maria Tadeo, your news as EU editor.
00:56Good morning, Maria.
00:57Good morning.
00:57Tell us, what do we know so far and what has the EU reaction been?
01:01Well, yes, Maeve.
01:02What we know is that we've had protests now for two weeks, which originally started because of a currency crisis, a local currency plunging against the dollar.
01:12The protests extending into the weekend on the streets of Iran, but not just.
01:16We also saw protests all across Europe, which hopefully we can put up on the screen in Berlin, in Paris, the Hague.
01:24The organizers say that these protests are in solidarity with the liberation of the people of Iran.
01:31We've also had reaction from the European institutions, the head of the European Commission put out a statement over the weekend in which she said we unequivocally condemn the violent repression of these legitimate demonstrations.
01:45And those responsible will be remembered for being on the wrong side of history.
01:51And this point of the well-being of people who are taken to the streets of Iran is incredibly important because that is a red line that the international community has set out.
02:01And this is a red line, most crucially, that President Trump has set out in these demonstrations.
02:06They should not turn into a violent crackdown from the regime.
02:10It should not turn into a bloodshed.
02:13And now, of course, over the weekend, we also had a human rights group from Iran based in the United States.
02:19They say they have now reason to believe that over the course of two weeks, 10,000 people have been arrested and almost 500 killed in violent confrontations.
02:29I should note, however, and this is also the case for Euronews, it has been very difficult to get footage out of the country.
02:36It has been very difficult to establish a connection because the phone lines are down.
02:40The Internet is not working.
02:42And in some ways, the country now really is a sort of black hole, very difficult to establish connection from the people of Iran externally,
02:49but also for independent media to really get a sense of what's going on in the country on the scale of it, of course.
02:55So what should we expect in the next few days?
02:57Well, the big question, and this is really the question now, is will there be a sort of military intervention from the United States into Iran?
03:06Of course, a lot of this is coming off the back of that operation in Venezuela,
03:10which shows not just a military show force from the United States,
03:14but also the velocity and the accuracy of a speed operation that they're able to carry out.
03:20President Trump over the weekend, again, repeated when it comes to the United States,
03:24nothing is off the table and a military intervention is possible.
03:29Let's take a look.
03:30There seem to be some people killed that aren't supposed to be killed.
03:34These are violent.
03:36If you call them leaders, I don't know if they're leaders or just they rule through violence.
03:41But we're looking at it very seriously.
03:43The military is looking at it.
03:45And we're looking at some very strong options.
03:49We'll make a determination.
03:51And that was, of course, President Trump.
03:52Very strong options.
03:53We know one of those options could be a military operation.
03:57The extent is still to be determined.
03:59There will be a debrief tomorrow from the U.S. administration.
04:02And then, of course, the biggest question mark of all, it's not the first time the U.S. hits Iran.
04:07Remember, they did that on the nuclear facilities, three nuclear sites last summer
04:11and another very targeted operation.
04:13But the question that remains is, will the United States aim for regime change?
04:17And what is the definition of regime change?
04:19Because we saw in Venezuela, they just extracted the head of it.
04:22But the regime in Caracas is still fully in place.
04:24So the end game, really the final goal here, that is still the big question mark.
04:28And also, what's the response from the Iranian regime?
04:31And what could that look like?
04:32And what could that be?
04:34Well, they've certainly said they would retaliate.
04:36Maria Tadeo, your news as a EU editor.
04:37Thank you so much for all those details and for speaking with us here live in the studio.
04:41Well, beyond Iran, the EU, as you know, is juggling multiple crises from Tehran to Kiev,
04:47Caracas to the Arctic.
04:48There's uncertainty on every front.
04:50Our reporter, Aida Sanchez, takes a look at world events that could shift the world map as we know it.
04:55Hello, 2026.
05:01Goodbye, world order.
05:0312 days into the new year and the world is already in disarray.
05:07Just look at the map.
05:08First, Venezuela with the unexpected capture of Nicolás Maduro.
05:12The former Venezuelan president is now in the U.S. waiting for a trial.
05:19Delcy Rodriguez is now in charge without big changes with the blessing and close supervision of the U.S.
05:26What's next for the country?
05:28Nobody knows.
05:29From the Caribbean to the Arctic, Trump is now fixated on Greenland.
05:33Will he force his allied Denmark to sell the island?
05:36Will he invade it with the argument of national security?
05:39The frozen territory is rich in natural resources.
05:42President Trump wants a rare earth.
05:45Meanwhile, the world's eyes are on Iran, where the regime is facing a hard time.
05:50As citizens' protests grew, the regime ordered an Internet and communications blackout.
05:58In Ukraine, a peace deal seems to be stalled and Russia has tested its new hypersonic missile.
06:04The war is approaching its fifth year.
06:07And don't forget about Gaza.
06:102026, a brief escalation or a turning point for the international order.
06:16We will find out.
06:20We will find out.
06:23And of course, whatever happens, we will break it down for you here on Euronews.
06:28And actually, for one perspective, coming up, we'll be joined by Dominique de Villepin,
06:32the former prime minister of France.
06:34A close advisor to President Jacques Chichac,
06:37Dominique de Villepin gained international recognition as foreign minister
06:41for refusing to support the U.S.-led war in Iraq back in 2003.
06:45And last summer, he founded a new political party in France, La France Humaniste.
06:50So good morning, Monsieur de Villepin.
06:52Thank you so much for joining us from Paris live this morning.
06:55Great to have you with us.
06:56First, I want to talk to you about the EU-Mercosur trade deal.
06:59It got over the line on Friday, despite the opposition from France.
07:04Do you think France will still block it when the European Parliament vote takes place?
07:07Well, I think there is a very strong consensus here in France of all the political parties
07:17to refuse such an agreement based on the idea that there is not enough reciprocity in this agreement.
07:25So it's not a position against any kind of trade agreement.
07:30It's because for some groups in our country, and mainly the farmers,
07:37we believe that the agreement has not reached the right point.
07:43And still, we should have been negotiating in order to better the agreement.
07:50But French opposition actually forced Brussels to pull out all the stops to convince Italy.
07:55So the agri-sector has already gotten several concessions,
07:58like advance payments from the CAP in the next budget,
08:01and also reducing tariffs on imports of fertilisers.
08:03Is this not enough for France?
08:07Well, reciprocity means more because we see on the environmental side,
08:15we see on the health measures that we are still not yet able to protect our population
08:23and protect our farmers.
08:25So the consensus that we see politically is threatening the survival of the government.
08:32So it's a major issue, very symbolic of the kind of fight we want to deliver,
08:41and also an expression of what we do expect from Europe.
08:47And even if the agreement has been negotiated for 26 years,
08:53we can see very clearly that all the elements have not been integrated,
08:59and we did not find the right balance in a moment,
09:04and we must admit that, where the worries of many groups, like farmers, is at a peak.
09:11So, again, this is something that has created a lot of disturbances,
09:17a lot of worries in the French population.
09:18And we can see that. We've seen that on the streets of France,
09:21even though the Commission would argue that the benefits for EU companies
09:24outweigh the risks for the French farmers.
09:26But I also want to talk about Iran.
09:28You've said that the EU must take their own initiative here
09:31rather than follow the US agenda.
09:32So what should Brussels be saying when it comes to Iran's future?
09:36What leverage do they have here?
09:37Well, what we see is a very severe crackdown on protesters.
09:45There is a changing position of the leadership in Iran,
09:51and we must find the right balance to not make things worse.
09:56And I think we are at a point where all around Iran,
10:02in every city, big city, small cities, the protest is growing.
10:06This is a movement of the Iranian population against the Mullahs regime.
10:15And any foreign intervention will create a new situation
10:22and give the possibility to the regime to even increase the repressive movement and policy.
10:31So that's your message then to Donald Trump?
10:32Behind the Mullahs.
10:34Is that your message then to President Trump?
10:36Exactly.
10:36Do not intervene.
10:39Do not intervene.
10:41Put as much pressure as you can.
10:43Try through dialogue and by any means to create a new situation
10:50that might create the awareness for the Iranian leadership
10:55in order to measure the consequences of their acts.
11:00But what is at stake now is not only the Mullahs.
11:04We know how important are the groups, the army, the Basiji, and also all the revolutionary guards.
11:14So we are not sure that even through an intervention,
11:18we might not create a situation of chaos that will be even worse than the situation today.
11:24So we must be very careful.
11:26The United States is already engaged in many different situations,
11:30many different theaters in Venezuela.
11:33Nothing has been achieved yet.
11:35And the people of Venezuela are still waiting for results.
11:40So being engaged in such a region like the Middle East without knowing at all what would be the consequences,
11:49I think this would not be responsible.
11:52So seething the UN, having the Security Council involved, of course, this is a matter of worry for everybody,
11:59even Russia and China.
12:01They have a lot of interest in Iran.
12:03They have no interest in creating a chaos situation.
12:07So I think through dialogue, through awareness of everyone, through strong pressure,
12:14and there are many, many unofficial ways to pressure the Islamic government,
12:20I think that we might be in a position to halt and stop the current situation in Iran.
12:32Okay.
12:32Dominique de Vipan, thank you so much for joining us live from Paris this morning.
12:36Thank you.
12:37Great to have you with us.
12:38Well, as you're noticing, Donald Trump's return to the White House has sparked a storm of uncertainty.
12:43His administration's threat to take over Greenland, an autonomous territory of Denmark,
12:47has also put NATO in uncharted territory.
12:50An alliance built on the idea that an attack on one is an attack on all,
12:54now faces the very unsettling possibility that one member could target another.
12:59Jakub Janus reports.
13:02Donald Trump once won at a Nobel Peace Prize.
13:06Despite the critics, his actions show he really does want peace.
13:11A peace of Venezuela, perhaps a peace of Cuba.
13:14And now he's officially coming for the whole of Greenland.
13:18And here is the logic to carve it up.
13:23Trump claims the Arctic is crawling with Chinese ships.
13:27He mocked Denmark for defending the island with just one more dog sled.
13:32In reality, Greenland already hosts a massive U.S. space base.
13:37And Denmark was recently running huge NATO exercises on ice.
13:42And that very ice is melting, which means new shipping routes and access to rare earth minerals,
13:49which is that stuff inside your smartphone.
13:51But we saw the blueprint in Venezuela.
13:55Washington doesn't just want security.
13:58They want the assets, too.
14:00And the tactic?
14:01Trump's envoy, Jeff Landry, is currently ghosting Danish diplomats.
14:06Instead, he emails locals directly to bond over hunting and fishing.
14:11That's sweet, but don't be fooled.
14:13Fresh off the Caracas raid, the White House warns that using military force is always an option.
14:23And European leaders are furious.
14:26Chancellor Friedrich Merz says borders are not up for negotiation.
14:31But here is the uncomfortable truth.
14:34If the U.S. can threaten to annex a loyal NATO ally, do we even need enemies?
14:39Peace.
14:44Well, that's it for this edition of Europe Today.
14:47We'll be back again tomorrow, so join us then.
14:49Thanks for watching.
14:49We'll be back again tomorrow, so we'll be back again tomorrow, so we'll be back again tomorrow, so we'll be back again tomorrow, so we'll be back again tomorrow, so we'll be back again tomorrow, so we'll be back again tomorrow, so we'll be back again tomorrow, so we'll be back again tomorrow, so we'll be back again tomorrow, so we'll be back again tomorrow, so we'll be back again tomorrow, so we'll be back again tomorrow, so we'll be back again tomorrow, so we'll be back again tomorrow, so we'll be back again tomorrow, so we'll be back again tomorrow, so we'll be back again tomorrow, so we'll be back again tomorrow, so we'll be back again tomorrow, so we'll be back again tomorrow, so we'll be back again tomorrow, so we'll be back again tomorrow, so we'll be back again tomorrow, so we'll be back again tomorrow, so we'll be back again tomorrow, so we'll be back again tomorrow, so we'll be back again
