00:00Ukraine is opening up exports of its domestically produced drones to Europe,
00:05President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said on Monday.
00:10EU Foreign Affairs Chief Kaya Kalas has warned that peace efforts for Ukraine
00:14risk in treating Russian aggression unless Moscow is forced to make real concessions.
00:21Even when you conducted a security drill simulating a scenario
00:25in which a train transits from mainland Russia to Kaliningrad.
00:30UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer defended his leadership and told Labour and peace
00:36he'll stay on as Prime Minister.
00:40Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has said Ukraine will be opening weapons export
00:45centres across Europe starting from mid-February.
00:49Speaking during a meeting with students and faculty at the Kyiv Aviation Institute on Monday,
00:55Zelenskyy said manufacturing of drones with the use of Ukrainian technology will start
00:59in Germany and later in the United Kingdom.
01:03bermustration.
01:04I hope that we will open the door.
01:05Great hope that the 10 export centres will appear in Europe already in the 26th
01:14year.
01:15This is Lorentz and Baltic countries and Nordic countries.
01:2010 representatives of the 26th year will work in Germany.
01:25The Ukrainian president emphasized that drone manufacturing has become the biggest sector in Ukraine since Russia's full-scale invasion in 2022.
01:50According to Zelenskyy, about 450 companies inside Ukraine are involved in production of various types of drones as the four-year war fills a boom in the defense sector.
02:07Lithuania conducted a security drill on Monday, simulating a scenario in which a train traveling from mainland Russia transits through the country to reach Kaliningrad.
02:17The drill is based on an incident that took place last summer.
02:23In June, a Russian citizen disembarked from a transit train, raising concerns over potential security risks linked to the corridor.
02:35The incident prompted Lithuania to tighten its transit controls.
02:39We received a decision that took place last summer.
02:45The incident was over the last few years.
02:49The incident was over the last few years.
02:53Military drills were also conducted in the Polish city of Brannivu near the border of the Kaliningrad exclave.
03:00The exercises featured the Korean-made K2 Black Panther tanks, which were deployed to the region in August in an effort to bolster NATO's eastern flank.
03:11EU Foreign Affairs Chief Kaya Kalas has warned that peace efforts for Ukraine risk entretiening Russian aggression unless Moscow is forced to make real concessions.
03:26Speaking on your news show Europe Today, Kaya Kalas expressed wariness of the ongoing U.S.-led talks with Russia and Ukraine that concluded last Thursday in Abu Dhabi.
03:39Well, we haven't seen Russia really taking the talks seriously because, you know, while Ukraine already agreed to unconditional ceasefire over a year ago, then Russia keeps on bombing.
03:51I mean, just yesterday we heard how they're bombing civilians, civilian infrastructure all the time.
03:57Plus, they don't really have serious people, you know, behind that table.
04:02So I don't expect anything out of this, really.
04:06Kalas acknowledged the Trump administration is bringing both sides together, but stressed that the imbalance is stark.
04:12We only have seen what Ukrainians are willing to concede in order to end this war, she said.
04:18We haven't seen any concessions on the Russian side, she added.
04:25UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer defended his leadership and told Labour MPs he'll stay on as Prime Minister.
04:32Also on Monday, Scottish Labour leader Anna Sarwar called for Starmer's resignation as the Prime Minister faces increased political pressure over the Peter Mandelson Epstein scandal.
04:45This isn't easy and it's not without pain as I have a genuine friendship with Keir Starmer.
04:52But my first priority and my first loyalty is to my country, Scotland.
04:59And I am not willing to sacrifice Scotland's NHS, our schools, our communities, our towns, cities, villages and islands to a third decade of an SNP government.
05:11That's why the distraction needs to end and the leadership in Downing Street has to change.
05:18Following Sarwar's statement, various cabinet members expressed support for Starmer, including his deputy David Lammy, Chancellor Rachel Reeves, Foreign Minister Yvette Cooper and his former deputy Angela Rayner.
05:32Starmer appointed Mandelson to Britain's most important diplomatic post in December of 2024.
05:39He did so even though he knew Mandelson had maintained contact with Epstein after the financier's conviction in 2008 for soliciting prostitution from a minor.
05:50Starmer addressed Epstein's victims last week, apologizing for, quote, believing Mandelson's lies and appointing him.
05:59Never done it.
06:00France has not been spared by the shockwave caused by the Epstein scandal.
06:14The latest tremor is the resignation of the president of the Arab World Institute and former Minister of Culture, Jack Long.
06:21Faced with the turmoil caused by the publication of three million documents by the U.S. Department of Justice at the end of January, the French president wants above all for the investigation to run its course.
06:33Manifestement, il y avait un système qui était très large, qui justifie que la justice fasse son travail de manière indépendante et dans le calme.
06:42Last week, the French National Financial Prosecutor's Office opened a preliminary investigation into Jack Long and his daughter Caroline Long for aggravated tax fraud laundering.
06:55American documents refer to email exchanges between the former French minister and the now deceased sex offender.
07:02Jeffrey Epstein also co-founded an offshore company with Jack Long's daughter for the purpose of acquiring works of art.
07:09Juan Pablo Guanipa was re-arrested after less than 12 hours of gaining his freedom from a Venezuelan prison.
07:22Opposition figures, including leader Maria Corina Machado, whom Guanipa is a close ally to, described the incident as a kidnapping.
07:30She wrote in a post on X that the opposition politician was forcibly pushed into vehicles as heavily armed men dressed in civilian clothes stormed his residence.
07:40Later on Monday, the public prosecutor's office released a statement announcing that Guanipa was again taken into custody and placed under house arrest.
07:49The statement alleged that the opposition lawmaker had not complied with the terms of his release, prompting his capture.
07:56The former National Assembly vice president was released on Sunday after more than eight months in prison, together with several prominent opposition members.
08:06His release came as part of a government initiative kick-started by acting President Delcey Rodriguez to free political detainees after the U.S. executed a stunning military operation last month.
08:18The operation ended with the capture of President Nicolas Maduro and his extradition to New York, where he faces charges of narco-terrorism.
08:28Detentions in Venezuela have routinely been criticized as arbitrary, politically motivated, and mere attempts at muzzling dissent.
08:37Machado has called for the immediate release of Guanipa.
08:40Following her landslide election victory in Japan, Prime Minister Sunai Takaichi said she won't bask in the afterglow and has vowed to deliver on her campaign pledges.
08:55The Desiree Rodriguez, President of the United States, President of the United States,
09:05The President of the United States, President of the United States of the United States,
09:10the United States, and the United States.
09:13I dare to support you to continue to be aurturing to the election.
09:17Dakaichi's victory has already proven to be impactful as Asian markets rose following her
09:24election win. The 64-year-old prime minister regained a substantial amount of support for
09:30the Liberal Democratic Party, which it had lost in recent elections due to inflation and corruption.
09:37Dakaichi was on the LDP's ultra-conservative fringe when she became party chief and prime
09:43minister in October last year. Since then, she has proven to be a hit with voters,
09:48especially young ones, but will now have to deliver on the economy and inflation.
10:13Bad Bunny. Bad Bunny. That's what it's about. His message. I am so proud to be a Puerto Rican.
