05:56Kako wström rzeczy?
05:57Wszystkie prawa sądzi.
05:59Ale co do tych ludzi robią?
06:02Wszystkie prawa są kriminy,
06:04ale muszą być jako herosami w Rosji.
06:07Więc,
06:07once again, pytam wszystkich,
06:09czy chcesz tych ludzi przyjaciół do domu?
06:11Nie, nie.
06:12To jest dlatego, że musisz zbierć ich na życie od Schengen.
06:16Idealnie,
06:17czy to może być w tym roku,
06:18czy potrzebujesz więcej czasu?
06:21Idealnie.
06:22To może być w tym roku,
06:25ale to jest idealnie.
06:27To może być w tym roku,
06:29że będziemy rozmawiać już o tym,
06:32ale nie wiem,
06:33czy będą mogłyby decyzję w tym roku.
06:36I hope so.
06:37Otro problem,
06:38w tym informalnym summitie,
06:40jest mutual assistance.
06:41We know,
06:42że Europy treaties,
06:43ma art.
06:43Mutual assistance,
06:4542.7.
06:46To nie zostało odkryć do tego,
06:48ale również,
06:49że wielu member states,
06:50jak yours,
06:51są także part.
06:51NATO,
06:52ma art. 5.
06:53Do widzenia.
06:54do widzenia.
06:54Do widzenia.
06:55możliwy kontradictwo,
06:56czy może być w tym roku,
06:57czy może być w tym roku?
07:54jest w tym publicznym, że wartość z Art. 5 nie jest już tak mocny?
08:01Nie mówię, ponieważ, na przykład, kiedy mieliśmy ruszne MiGs w naszym spęcie,
08:09trochę wcześniej, że ruszne ruszne dronezy w Polsce, które zostały zniszczone
08:14na pierwszy raz w historii NATO.
08:17W tym momencie, Trump's message był dość szczerze,
08:19że Ameryka jest zgromadna, że polubieżdża Polska i tak dalej.
08:24Tak więc powiem, że mężczyzny są bardzo klarty, że NATO jest działać.
08:28A także w Haigie.
08:29Mamy na to NATO samochód,
08:31i Trump mówił, że jeśli Europy się zgromaduje,
08:35to będzie na NATO.
08:38Tak, mogę zrozumieć, że jest wiele politycznych mężczyznych,
08:42ale miliarski stronie jest działać absolutnie dobrze.
08:48That was the Estonian
08:50Prime Minister Kristan Michal speaking
08:51to our correspondent Jorge Liborero
08:54and we'll of course keep an eye out
08:55for Jorge's reporting throughout the day
08:58from those talks in Cyprus
08:59Now when he was president
09:02of the European Council
09:03Charles Michel had a notoriously
09:06strained relationship with
09:07commission president Ursula von der Leyen
09:10Those tensions have
09:12resurfaced in recent weeks
09:14Our irreparator Maria Tadeo
09:16caught up with Michel earlier
09:18today at the Delphi Economic Forum
09:20She began by asking
09:22him about von der Leyen's leadership
09:24style, often described as
09:25highly centralised and whether
09:27sufficient checks and balances
09:30exist to keep that
09:32approach in check
09:33All of us, we know what we have
09:36to do, but I'm observing
09:37it seems it's difficult to make decisions
09:40that are urgent
09:42I trust the European Council
09:44I think that by nature
09:46the European Council is the
09:48right body to decide
09:50what are the main orientations
09:52and also to make the most difficult
09:54decision because you know
09:56the European Council is the
09:58guardian of the European unity
10:00and this European unity is something
10:02that's not easy to achieve, it requires
10:04a lot of work, a lot of preparation
10:06it requires a lot of collective
10:08intelligence, it requires to listen
10:10to each other
10:11and I'm confident that sooner or later
10:14the European Council will make additional decisions to clarify some of the orientations
10:20we have to decide on in the near future
10:23do you, are we to understand therefore
10:25that the Council as it stands
10:27it should be stronger
10:28it should have a louder voice
10:30it's not as strong as it should be
10:32the message you have
10:32you know, in my opinion
10:34there's not a question of voice
10:36it's a question of decisions
10:37that have to be made
10:39and what is a bit frustrating
10:40for all those like me
10:42who are absolutely
10:43convinced of this project
10:44it's more needed than ever
10:45the European project
10:46the European dream
10:47the European principles
10:48the European values
10:50the European coexistence
10:51what is frustrating is the fact that
10:53all of us
10:54we know what we have to do
10:55we know exactly what we have to do
10:56everything is on the table
10:58and I observe that there are always
11:00good reasons to procrastinate
11:01there are always good reasons
11:02to waste time
11:05and that's regrettable
11:06and again
11:07I don't want to blame anyone in particular
11:12let's be clear
11:13that's not my point
11:14when I want to blame someone
11:15I'm very clear
11:16you know me
11:17here that's not my point
11:18my point is
11:19let's look at the future
11:20and we have tools
11:22we have capacities
11:24we have capabilities
11:25we have great companies
11:26we have great searchers
11:28we have a lot of strength within the EU
11:30and there is a crisis
11:32there is chaos across the world
11:34and by experience we know
11:36when it's difficult
11:37in the world
11:38in general
11:39the EU is able
11:40to learn lessons
11:42fast
11:43let's act faster
11:44and let's learn our lessons
11:47some would argue
11:47the weakness
11:48at times of the council
11:49goes back to the idea of unanimity
11:51and that has been dragging
11:53the action
11:54and certainly the peace
11:55and the speed around it
11:56Viktor Orban
11:57obviously has been
11:58crushed in a defeat
11:59Viktor Orban now
12:00is gone from the council
12:02is that going to make things better
12:04actually would you argue
12:04the dynamics are more profound
12:06even with the Hungarian prime minister
12:08gone
12:08this issue will remain
12:10I hope
12:11that it will help
12:13the European councils
12:14to be more united
12:15in the future
12:16are you relieved
12:17that Viktor Orban lost?
12:18I wouldn't say that
12:19because I will tell you why
12:20because I think
12:21that
12:22based on the experience
12:24I have
12:24on some topics
12:25some in the European council
12:27were hiding
12:28behind
12:29Viktor Orban
12:31point one
12:31and point two
12:32in some of the European countries
12:33you can have
12:34tomorrow
12:35some national leaders
12:37won so far
12:39from Viktor Orban's ideology
12:41on some topics
12:42including on Ukraine
12:43for instance
12:43point two
12:44does it mean
12:45that unanimity
12:46is a problem?
12:48for sure
12:48unanimity is a challenge
12:49there is no doubt
12:50but I think
12:51you should think carefully
12:53before making a decision
12:54to not to use unanimity
12:57anymore
12:57because if you stop
12:59to try
13:00to involve
13:01every country
13:03in the same decision
13:04the reason is that
13:05you will weaken
13:06the weight
13:08of the EU
13:09at the international level
13:10and that's why
13:12I think
13:12the priority
13:13should be different
13:14in my opinion
13:14we should fight
13:16against the abuse
13:17of this veto right
13:18because if you
13:19follow the philosophy
13:21and the principle
13:21for the Lisbon Treaty
13:22the idea
13:24was really
13:24that the veto right
13:25was supposed
13:26to be used
13:27when your vital
13:28interests
13:29are at risk
13:30and the problem
13:31is that today
13:31too many countries
13:33are tempted
13:33too many times
13:34to use this veto right
13:36as a kind of tool
13:38to blackmail
13:39and to get something
13:39in the other side
13:40that's the problem
13:41the one I think
13:42it seems to me
13:42however
13:43listening to the leaders
13:44just finally
13:44on this point
13:45that they would agree
13:45enlargement needs to happen
13:46as soon as possible
13:48and complete the union
13:49but they would also say
13:50we need to reform
13:51and there is no fast track
13:52for Ukraine
13:53are those three statements
13:54compatible?
13:55what you are mentioning
13:57is this agreed language
13:59no fast track
14:00etc.
14:01when we want to do something
14:04but in parallel
14:06we add a sentence
14:08so it is in fact
14:10more difficult
14:10to get the result
14:14let's be clear
14:16there is no doubt
14:17that in those countries
14:19they have to do
14:20their homework
14:20and they know
14:21what they have to do
14:22they have to put in place
14:23of reform
14:24they have to guarantee
14:25the independence of justice
14:26to fight against corruption
14:27etc.
14:28point one
14:29on the other hand
14:30let's be honest
14:31in some of the European countries
14:33it was uncomfortable
14:34to use the argument
14:36of those countries
14:38not acting
14:41as fast as needed
14:43because there is
14:44in some European countries
14:46a difficult political debate
14:48with this enlargement policy
14:49and I think
14:50in those circumstances
14:51we could all win
14:54if we tell the truth
14:55to our people
14:57everywhere in Europe
14:58the future
14:59will be more stable
15:01more secure
15:02with them
15:02within the EU
15:03and of course
15:04there are some efforts
15:05between also
15:06our efforts
15:07that are needed
15:08in terms of
15:09domestic reforms
15:10and in terms
15:11of what kind
15:13of policy
15:13we put in place
15:16that was the former
15:18president of the European Council
15:20Charles Michel
15:21speaking to our Europe editor
15:22Maria Tadeo
15:24now the FIFA
15:25Football World Cup
15:26is just around the corner
15:28happening this summer
15:29of course
15:29in the US
15:31Canada
15:31and Mexico
15:32and it's becoming
15:34deeply intertwined
15:35with global politics
15:37the Trump administration
15:38is reportedly
15:39working behind the scenes
15:41to replace Iran
15:42which did qualify
15:44for the tournament
15:45with Italy
15:46which painfully lost
15:47in the playoffs
15:48to Bosnia
15:49and Herzegovina
15:50missing out
15:51on a spot
15:52in the World Cup
15:52for the third
15:53consecutive time
15:55for more
15:56our Jakob Janis
15:57has this explainer
16:01Could the 2026 World Cup
16:03see a team
16:03that failed to qualify
16:05take to the pitch?
16:06A plan is brewing
16:08in Washington
16:08to give Italy
16:09a wildcard entry
16:10by replacing Iran
16:11Paolo Zampolli
16:13a special envoy
16:14to President Trump
16:15confirmed
16:16he has pitched the swap
16:17to both the White House
16:18and FIFA President
16:19Gianni Infantino
16:20but wait a second
16:22is this game changer
16:23even in the rule book?
16:26The Financial Times reports
16:28this is an attempt
16:29to repair ties
16:30between Trump
16:31and Italy's
16:32Giorgia Meloni
16:32after the Republic's
16:33part over the Iran war
16:35and the Pope
16:36and Zampolli argues
16:37Italy four world titles
16:39offered the pedigree
16:40to join the 2026 tournament
16:42hosted across the US
16:44Mexico and Canada
16:45Alright
16:46but how is it legal?
16:48Article 6
16:49of the World Cup
16:50regulations
16:50gives FIFA
16:51sole discretion
16:53to replace any team
16:54that withdraws
16:55or is excluded
16:56and while Iran
16:58insists they plan
16:59to participate
17:00FIFA has already
17:01set a precedent
17:02just last summer
17:04they used the same powers
17:06to hand a spot
17:07at the Club World Cup
17:08to Inter Miami
17:09enabling Lionel Messi
17:11to play
17:12but football
17:14is not the only arena
17:15where the guest list
17:15is being rewritten
17:16this February
17:18Russia and Belarus
17:19were bards
17:20from flying their flags
17:21at the Milano-Cortina
17:222026 Winter Olympics
17:23in response
17:24to the full-scale
17:25invasion of Ukraine
17:26yet
17:27when the Paralympics
17:29which are governed
17:30by a different body
17:31than the Olympics
17:31allowed these symbols
17:33back after a Swiss court ruling
17:34the European Commission
17:36boycotted
17:36the opening ceremony
17:37Sport Commissioner
17:39Glenn Mikalev
17:40called the return
17:41of the national banners
17:41unacceptable
17:42while Russia's war
17:44of aggression
17:44against Ukraine
17:45continues
17:46so if Italy
17:47does make it
17:48to Los Angeles
17:49this June
17:49it could be
17:50the most historic
17:51wildcard
17:52in the history
17:53of the sport
17:53they just have to hope
17:55their diplomatic pedigree
17:56is as strong
17:57as their footballing one
17:58especially after
18:00the brutal defeat
18:01to Bosnia
18:01and Herzegovina
18:02in the qualifying
18:03playoff final
18:09and that brings
