00:00Trump hailed what he called a very successful NATO summit just hours after he had lashed out over NATO's allies'
00:07failure to back his war in Iran.
00:11Donald Trump said the US will grant Ukraine a license to produce Patriot Interceptors.
00:21The European Commission has warned about the approach of a new heatwave in Europe.
00:31In a turn of events, US President Donald Trump hailed what he called a very successful summit.
00:37He also applauded NATO member states.
00:40It comes as just earlier in the day Trump lashed out over NATO's allies' failure to back his war in
00:45Iran.
00:46Trump also threatened to cut trade with Spain and insisted he still wants NATO member Denmark's territory of Greenland.
00:54Superstars, actually.
00:56But we want to thank you very much.
00:58We've had a tremendous time and, I think, a great success.
01:03And it's a big—it's a lot of speeches.
01:07We kept it short.
01:09But it's too bad the press couldn't have seen what we were doing in that room because it was very
01:17smart people.
01:18And they have a lot of good in their heart, not evil, good.
01:22Behind closed doors, however, Trump had reassured his counterparts he wanted the US to stay in the military alliance, according
01:29to a source inside the session.
01:32NATO Chief Mark Rutte insisted that despite the disagreements, the alliance was emerging stronger from the summit in Turkey,
01:38with allies unveiling tens of billions in new arms contracts.
01:47U.S. President Donald Trump said the U.S. plans to provide Ukraine with license to produce U.S.-made Patriot
01:53air defense interceptors.
01:55Trump was speaking alongside Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky at the NATO summit in Ankara.
02:01Kiev has repeatedly requested these long-range air defense missiles to protect its cities and energy grid from ocean strikes.
02:08We'll show them how to do it.
02:09It's very complex, actually.
02:12But it's—you'll figure out the complexity quickly.
02:15And we're talking about that.
02:17And we'll—the company that makes them, which is building now four plants, you know, all of our companies will be
02:23able to do this in two to three months.
02:25If you order a Patriot, now you have to wait a long time.
02:29Trump said the idea of licensed production in Ukraine will deflect criticism that Washington is not supplying enough high-end
02:37air defense systems.
02:39We're going to give a license to you to make Patriots.
02:42That's pretty cool, right?
02:44This way you can't complain that we're not giving them enough.
02:46I say, make them yourself.
02:49We haven't informed the company of that yet, but that'll—that'll work out all right.
02:53You know, sure, they'll be thrilled.
02:56Patriots are manufactured in the U.S. by Raytheon and Lockheed Martin.
03:00But the U.S. and Israel's war on Iran has depleted almost a third of the global stockpile of Patriot
03:06interceptors.
03:10Responding to renewed comments from U.S. President Donald Trump suggesting that Greenland should be under Washington's control,
03:16Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen reminded him that the Danish territory is not for sale.
03:22Speaking to reporters at the NATO summit taking place in Turkey,
03:25Frederiksen said she believed the U.S. position on the matter had become increasingly explicit.
03:30The U.S. position is unfortunately very clear on this topic,
03:35and our position is as clear as it has been all through.
03:40Greenland is, of course, not for sale.
03:42Frederiksen also said Denmark and Greenland expected their allies to respect the island's future
03:47as well as the country's territorial integrity and sovereignty.
03:51Trump has repeatedly made similar claims on Greenland, an autonomous territory of the Kingdom of Denmark,
03:56while arguing that Denmark under-invests in the region and threatening a total troop withdrawal from Europe.
04:03After this latest instance, Copenhagen emphasized that Denmark remains fully prepared to defend every inch of its sovereign territory,
04:10expecting its global partners to honor their foundational collective defense commitments.
04:16The geopolitical friction intensified earlier this year, in March,
04:20when Vice President J.D. Vance visited the Pitofix space base
04:23and accused European allies, without evidence,
04:26of failing to properly secure the strategically vital Arctic from Russian and Chinese expansion.
04:36Spanish government has proposed a major new European Union common barrowing mechanism worth up to 850 billion euros per year,
04:43unveiling a radical mechanism designed to deepen capital market integration
04:47and strengthen the single currency's global role.
04:50Spanish economy minister Carlos Cuerpo will formally present the comprehensive pitch in Brussels
04:55during a high-level meeting of euro-area finance ministers.
04:58According to the leaked document, Madrid argues that a centralized debt issuance framework
05:03could generate up to 25 billion euros in annual savings
05:07by allowing participating states to borrow at premium German-level interest rates.
05:12While the proposal promises substantial fiscal relief,
05:15common borrowing remains highly controversial in Brussels,
05:18facing staunch opposition from a coalition led by Germany and the Netherlands,
05:22who fiercely reject taking on shared sovereign debt.
05:25To navigate this deep political division,
05:28Spain is proposing a voluntary European sovereign facility
05:31that will allow an initial coalition of the willing to participate,
05:35provided they comply with core EU fiscal rules.
05:38The high-stakes debate unfolds as all 27 member states face a strict deadline
05:43to fully agree upon the next long-term European budget by the end of the year.
05:54The European Commission has warned about the approach of a new heat wave in Europe.
05:59This year has again broken records.
06:02Only weeks after a historically high temperature in June,
06:06another major heat wave is approaching.
06:08The European Commission has said the June heat wave had severe consequences.
06:12Hospitals were overwhelmed, schools were shut and crops were ravaged.
06:16At least 3,500 fatalities could be attributed to the June heat wave in Europe,
06:21with France reporting more than 2,000 excess deaths for the last week of June.
06:26As a result, the Irish Minister of State for European Affairs and Defence
06:30called for strong policies to mitigate and adapt to climate change.
06:35We are the fastest warming region in the world.
06:38Human-induced climate change is undoubtedly a major underlying cause of heat waves,
06:44wildfires and other extreme weather events such as floods and droughts.
06:48Meanwhile, trade unions are calling for new measures to protect workers during heat stress,
06:53such as workplace thermal limits, rights to heat breaks and adjusted working hours.
07:01An old school building in Budapest is being converted into an apartment block.
07:06The 26 energy-efficient apartments currently under construction
07:10will be available for rent on the basis of social need.
07:1480% of the project is funded by the European Union,
07:17with the remainder provided by the Budapest Municipal Government.
07:20The project will be completed this year,
07:23and residents will be able to move in early 2027.
07:48As part of the project, other vacant unused buildings in Budapest are being surveyed,
07:54and a study is being prepared to determine the most appropriate way to utilize them.
07:58Many factors must be taken into account to reconcile the various expectations
08:01and professional viewpoints.
08:05The project will be found in the Character of the
08:28They will be trained in the local cities, and there are many other goals that want to help,
08:37whether it be a single family or a family of children.
08:43So we're trying to make this very difficult framework to make a decision to make a decision.
08:50Budapest's mayor, who participated in the construction site tour,
08:53urged the development of a substantive strategy to remedy the capital's catastrophic housing situation.
08:59He emphasized that while the current project does not resolve this crisis,
09:03it serves as a good test of how to tackle these challenges in collaboration with various professional organizations.
09:14As conflicts deepen and religious tensions continue to divide societies,
09:19Uzbekistan is bringing together scholars and religious leaders from across the world,
09:23to argue that education, science and dialogue remain among the strongest responses to extremism, intolerance and Islamophobia.
09:31More than 450 participants from over 50 countries gathered for the first International Forum of Islamic Civilization.
09:38In a message delivered to participants on his behalf, President Shabkat Mirziyoyev said,
09:43Knowledge, culture and international cooperation are essential to strengthening peace and mutual understanding in an increasingly fragmented world.
09:51The forum's main purpose is that there is a form of knowledge,
09:55and a form of knowledge, and a form of knowledge, and a form of knowledge, and a form of knowledge.
10:03The forum seeks to challenge misconceptions about Islam by highlighting centuries of scientific and intellectual achievement.
10:20AI could not exist without the principles that were laid down by Khawarizmi.
10:28Astronomy would not be laid out without the principles that were laid out by Aurigbek and Biruni.
10:34We have to be proud of our Islamic scholars.
10:38The forum also looked beyond history, with participants announcing new research partnerships, educational programs,
10:44and digital projects aimed at preserving Islamic heritage.
10:47The scholars of this beautiful village, which is the village that is within the river,
10:52and they have to be given close to hundreds of thousands of people in the world's universities.
10:57And we celebrate all these things and these projects,
11:00and we hope that we can achieve new scientific projects and new projects.
11:05Organizers say more than 70 joint initiatives were presented during the forum,
11:10ranking from artificial intelligence for manuscript research to scholarship programs for young researchers,
11:16and international cooperation on cultural preservation.
11:19At a time of growing global tensions and rising intolerance,
11:23the forum is making the case that Islamic civilization should be remembered for centuries of scientific discovery, education, and scholarship.
11:32Rather than focusing on the divisions dominating today's headlines,
11:36participants are highlighting a legacy they say belongs to all of humanity.
