01:00And the U.S. has continued to strike Iran for the ninth consecutive night with another U.S. serviceman killed,
01:07this time in northern Iraq, during the controlled detonation of a downed Iranian drone.
01:12A Kuwaiti power and desalination plant was attacked by Iran for the second time in two days on Sunday, raising
01:20fears of a widening conflict.
01:22We'll have the latest from our correspondent in the Middle East.
01:26And Andy Burnham is set to become the U.K.'s new Prime Minister today, taking over from Keir Starmer.
01:32He's tasked with uniting a fractured party and fending off a growing threat from the far-right ReformUK party led
01:40by Nigel Farage.
01:42Burnham has also vowed to decentralise power away from London.
01:46We'll have more analysis.
01:48But first, this morning, we're taking you straight to Madrid.
01:52A dominant Spanish side was held by Argentina to a goalless draw during 90 minutes of play in last night's
01:59World Cup final.
02:00But despite Argentina's grit and resistance, Spain's striker Ferran Torres broke the deadlock in added time with the only goal
02:08of the match.
02:09That was after Argentina's Enzo Fernández was shown the red card in stoppage time.
02:15So let's cross over now to Madrid and to our correspondent, Maria Muñoz, who's standing by for us there.
02:21Maria, good to see you.
02:23What a night for Spain.
02:24Give us a sense of the atmosphere there this morning.
02:29Good morning, Maret, from Spain.
02:31Well, people are still celebrating on the streets.
02:34They are being celebrating all night long.
02:36I was coming to the office this early morning and they were shouting, they were singing.
02:41They are all very happy.
02:43We've seen that Spain has gotten better and better match after match.
02:48They started with a draw against Cape Verde, but then they improved.
02:53They showed they are a collective team, something Luis de la Fuente has insisted on.
02:58They are not just some bright players.
03:00They are not just one single player who is the star.
03:04They are a family.
03:05Same philosophy that made the former national team champions in 2020.
03:11They have shown they have improved against Belgium and against one of the main favorites in this tournament, as it
03:19was France.
03:20Yesterday, there was one team playing football and another one trying to prevent them from playing.
03:27Spain tried to score 20 times.
03:30The result is quite short after all those occasions, more than 20 they had.
03:35We may have witnessed last messy match with the Argentinian squad.
03:41He was very sad.
03:42We could see him crying.
03:44But what can I say?
03:46We are very happy here.
03:47Yesterday, we were in the fan zone with the fans celebrating our triumph in this World Cup.
03:53Let's take a look.
03:58The match was incredibly exciting, right?
04:00Until the last moment when we secured the victory, we beat Leo Messi.
04:04Ciao Leo Messi!
04:06The match was very good, but the referee was very, very Argentinian.
04:12Spectacular!
04:12Very good!
04:13We came all the way from Puerto Rico.
04:15We arrived today to see the game.
04:17We wanted to be here, at the heart of it all.
04:19We wanted to watch the game from Spain and see the world champions.
04:23Champions!
04:25Champions!
04:28Champions!
04:29Champions!
04:29Champions!
04:30Champions!
04:30Maria, briefly, we know that there are plans for celebrations in Madrid also late
04:36tonight.
04:39Yes, the team will arrive around 1 p.m. to Barajas Airport, then they will go visit the royal family,
04:46and then around 6 p.m. the royal party will start with a bus parade with all the players
04:52offering the trophy to the fans.
04:55They will arrive around 9 p.m. to Sibeles, where the party is going to start with concerts
04:59and with all the happiness they've brought to us from America.
05:06Okay, Maria Muñoz, in Madrid for us this morning, thank you, and I'm sure we'll see more of those
05:11celebrations on Euronews throughout the day.
05:14But we're moving to the Middle East next, where the U.S. has carried out the ninth consecutive
05:18night of strikes against Iran.
05:21Meanwhile, Iran's Revolutionary Guard has vowed not to let a single drop of oil or gas
05:26pass through the Strait of Hormuz.
05:28For more, we can cross over to our correspondent, Adel Halim, who's in Qatar for us.
05:34So, Adel, more strikes overnight, and the current spiral of violence is showing no signs of
05:39subsiding.
05:42Good morning, Maher.
05:43Yes, the conflict continues to escalate.
05:45The U.S. has completed a nine consecutive night of strikes inside Iran, targeting military
05:50command centers, air defense systems, and missile sites.
05:53Meanwhile, Iran has responded with attacks of its own.
05:56The air defense systems have been activated across the Gulf, with Kuwait intercepting drones,
06:03Bahrain-sounding sirens, and Jordan reporting missile interceptions.
06:07The U.S. has also confirmed a third military death over the weekend.
06:11A service member was killed in Iraq in what is called a controlled detonation of a downed
06:16Iranian drone.
06:17This follows the deaths of two U.S. troops in Jordan.
06:21So, despite repeated calls for diplomacy, both sides are continuing to exchange fire, and the
06:26conflict is spreading across the region.
06:28Maher?
06:29And, Adel, we also know power and desalination plants in the Gulf are being increasingly targeted.
06:34How much of a worry is that in the region?
06:39Absolutely.
06:40One of the biggest concerns now is that critical infrastructure is increasingly being caught
06:45up in the fighting.
06:46We've seen allegations of attacks on power plants and water desalination plants in the
06:53Gulf.
06:53Those facilities provide drinking water to millions of people.
06:56If essential infrastructure becomes a regular target, the consequences extend well beyond
07:02the battlefield and start to affect everyday life.
07:04We're also seeing the conflict spread geographically.
07:07As we've heard, it's no longer just about the U.S. and Iran, where Jordan, Bahrain, and Kuwait
07:12have come under attack.
07:13That's why countries like Qatar and Pakistan continue to push for de-escalation and diplomacy.
07:18But at the moment, the military action is moving much faster than any kind of diplomacy.
07:23Indeed.
07:23Adel, for us in Doha, thank you so much for bringing us up to speed there.
07:28Now, we're moving to the U.K. next, where Andy Burnham, the former mayor of Manchester,
07:33will today become prime minister, taking over from Sir Keir Starmer.
07:37Burnham is also expected to name his cabinet members today.
07:41For more, I'm joined live now by Tim Bale, who is a politics professor at Queen Mary University
07:46University of London.
07:48Tim, really good to have you with us this morning.
07:50So listen, Burnham is promising big change, the biggest change in U.K. politics in 40 years,
07:55he says.
07:56How crucial will his cabinet appointments now be in setting the tone for his government
08:01and ensuring he hits the ground running?
08:05Well, I think you're right to say they will set the tone.
08:07There's been quite a lot of speculation over the weekend and indeed the last week,
08:11particularly about the position of Chancellor of the Exchequer,
08:14the key finance ministerial position.
08:17It looks like it's slipped away from Andy Burnham's key ally, Ed Miliband,
08:22who is seen by some to risk spooking the markets, to coin that cliche,
08:27and instead go to Shabana Mahmood, who is seen to be more on the right of the Labour Party
08:33and probably will cause a few eruptions in the market.
08:39That means Ed Miliband will probably go to Foreign Secretary.
08:42But it is absolutely clear that he does have to signal a departure from what's gone on before.
08:49Otherwise, in some ways, there is no point replacing Keir Starmer with someone else.
08:55So yes, today will be very important.
08:57You don't get a second chance to create the first impression.
09:00So everything about today, the choreography,
09:03and indeed the choreography for the next week, I think will be absolutely crucial.
09:06You mentioned the importance of the Chancellor and this resetting what many would call a broken economy,
09:13but he's also prioritising this push for more devolution or the idea of delegating power to the regions,
09:20even creating a number 10 north, he says.
09:23How much of a shift in thinking is this for a UK prime minister?
09:28I'm not sure it's as big a shift as people think, actually.
09:31Prime ministers for a long time, whether they be Conservative or Labour,
09:36have been talking about the over-centralisation of the UK
09:39and particularly the over-centralisation of the UK economy.
09:43Even under the Conservatives, you saw an outpost of the Treasury being created in Darlington
09:48in the north-east of the country.
09:50So in some ways, I think this is more about mood music than it is necessarily about substance.
09:57That said, obviously, given that some of our more peripheral regions
10:03feel that they have been left out from whatever growth there has been in the British economy,
10:08it is important that we spread the wealth out from the south-east and London,
10:13where it is at the moment concentrated.
10:15And that obviously has a particular knock-on effect for the kind of jobs
10:19that are available in those areas.
10:22So I think devolution is important, but I don't think it is the magic bullet
10:26that some, and indeed possibly Andy Burnham, suggest it is.
10:29Very, very briefly, Tim, if I may, just to close.
10:32We're watching intently here from Brussels, of course.
10:34Do you expect a big shift in Burnham's EU and foreign policy
10:39compared to the Starmer government?
10:42Very briefly, no.
10:44Strong support for Ukraine, trying to handle an erratic US president
10:48and trying to move towards closer relationships with the EU,
10:52but in some ways, unfortunately, not really making a big move
10:55on the single market or the customs union.
10:57There'll just be incremental moves until possibly the next parliament
11:00if Burnham gets re-elected.
11:02OK.
11:03Thank you so much for that analysis for us from London.
11:07But we're moving on now, because last Friday,
11:09the European Commission unveiled proposals aimed at making European banks
11:13more competitive.
11:14It's widely seen as a move to close the gap with US rivals.
11:19Well, on Friday, our correspondent, Sasha Vakulina,
11:21caught up with the European Commissioner for Financial Services,
11:24Maria-Louis Albuquerque, and started by asking her
11:27what impact she hoped the proposals could have
11:29for European citizens and businesses.
11:33Banks are very important in the European economy.
11:36They're important for citizens.
11:37They're important for businesses, for financing.
11:40So we need them to be efficient and to work well.
11:44We have found a few problems which need to be addressed.
11:48And we have, with this diagnosis, also indicated the way forward.
11:53So it is about making our banking sector better prepared to support citizens,
12:01businesses, and the European's ambitions and vision for the future.
12:05And what is the key aspect here when it comes to the Europeans,
12:09to ordinary save-up?
12:11You focus on this category.
12:12What is the key?
12:13People typically go to banks for one of two things.
12:17Either they need to borrow money for a mortgage,
12:21for whatever objective.
12:23They should have banks which are efficient,
12:27but also competitive,
12:28so that people can compare different offers
12:30and choose the one which is best.
12:33But also people save money and put money aside
12:36for a rainy day, for a pension, for whatever reason.
12:41And banks are often the agents,
12:45the intermediaries that people go to.
12:48So the more efficient the banks are,
12:51the more competitive the system is,
12:54the better will be the offer of such opportunities
12:57for our households wanting to save and invest their money.
13:00When we look at the world of big powers,
13:03does Europe need more cross-border mergers,
13:05meaning probably fewer but bigger European banks
13:09and therefore more consolidation?
13:11Yes, we need a few big banks.
13:16But if we compare the average size
13:19of even the bigger European banks
13:22and our competitors,
13:24who also operate in Europe, by the way,
13:27namely American banks,
13:29the size is completely different.
13:31And for some areas of business,
13:34that scale really matters.
13:36We have identified the fragmentation
13:38of the banking sector,
13:40or the incompleteness of the single market in banking,
13:44as the main problem holding us back
13:47in terms of competitiveness.
13:48That is actually the bigger problem
13:51we have discovered.
13:52This makes it very inefficient.
13:55This perspective of looking at member states
13:57in isolation is actually very costly
14:01to the European economy.
14:02I think that member states,
14:05this is, they come from the past
14:07where we looked at this from a national perspective,
14:10but I think we have all realized
14:13that our true competitors are other blocs.
14:18So it's Europe together with our other competitors.
14:22And that requires that change in mindset.
14:25Of course, it's difficult.
14:27It's a significant change
14:29and there is a normal resistance to change.
14:32But I think the fact that there is awareness
14:34and the conscience that the costs
14:37of not moving are increasing,
14:39I think we have now better conditions
14:42to deliver on those objectives.
14:43The report argues that Europe's banks
14:46need to take more risk
14:48if they are to finance growth
14:50and compete globally.
14:52Where do you draw the line
14:53between encouraging certain risk-taking
14:56and avoiding the mistakes
14:58that led to previous financial crisis?
15:00It's not banks that need to take more risk.
15:04It's the whole Europe
15:06that needs to have a different approach to risk.
15:09So, because of how we are,
15:13I don't know,
15:14also because of cultural elements,
15:16but because of some inefficiencies in our system
15:19and still the legacy of the previous crisis,
15:23we focused a lot on reducing
15:26and trying to eliminate risk.
15:28But if you eliminate risk,
15:29you eliminate opportunities.
15:31We know that risk-taking is indispensable
15:34for innovation, for economic growth.
15:36So, what we are talking about here
15:38is a recalibration.
15:40Now, we need to adjust the parameters
15:42of the framework to say
15:44that some more risk-taking
15:48should be considered in the system as a whole
15:51when it comes to financing certain activities.
15:54But this is the political discussion.
15:56How much risk are we comfortable
15:58to allow into the system
16:00preserving financial stability?
16:03Because financial stability is a precondition.
16:05Without financial stability,
16:07nothing else works.
16:08So, we need to find the right balance.
16:10What we are talking about here
16:11is rebalancing,
16:13allowing some more risk
16:14while preserving financial stability.
16:16It's a recalibration.
16:18It's not going back to the past
16:20because we have learned the lessons
16:22and we are much better prepared
16:24to manage risk
16:26in a sound and prudent manner now.
16:31Now, Europol,
16:32the EU's law enforcement agency,
16:34has said that online ecosystems
16:36are reshaping terrorist threats.
16:39In a report released last week,
16:41the agency also said that
16:42violence has become a means
16:44of gaining identity and belonging
16:46for a number of perpetrators
16:47and that this creates
16:49a more complex threat across Europe.
16:51To discuss those findings in more detail,
16:53I'm joined now by Anna Sjöbri,
16:55head of the European Counterterrorism Center
16:58at Europol.
17:00Good morning, Anna.
17:01Great to have you with us.
17:02So, your report states
17:03that the lines between
17:04established terrorist ideologies
17:06and other forms of violent extremism
17:09are being blurred.
17:10Why is that a reason to be worried?
17:14Yeah, we need to follow the development
17:16and this is also what we have been describing
17:19since, if we go back to 10 years
17:22since Europe experienced
17:23the wave of mass casualties
17:25and major attacks
17:26and also when European Counterterrorism Center
17:29was created
17:30and since that,
17:31we have done these trend
17:32and situation reports
17:34to describe the development
17:36of the threat.
17:37And this year,
17:38we actually describe
17:39that the threat is persistent,
17:41it still exists
17:43and it's a major threat
17:44against European security.
17:46And the development,
17:47as you say,
17:48the blurred lines,
17:49it's because we are seeing
17:50an increasing number
17:52of different ideologies
17:55that are diversitized ideologies,
17:58also not only the traditional ones.
18:01So, you mentioned diversifying ideologies,
18:03but what would you say,
18:04based on your analysis,
18:06is the biggest threat
18:08that Europeans should be concerned about
18:10right now?
18:12We need to understand
18:13that the threat is persistent.
18:15If you go back to 2025
18:17and look at the numbers of arrests,
18:20you have almost 500 arrests,
18:22terrorist-related arrests
18:23in the European Union.
18:25This shows
18:25that the threat is persistent.
18:27We also see
18:28that the major threat
18:29comes from jihadism
18:31and that's also
18:32the most lethal threat.
18:34But we also need
18:35to understand
18:36the development
18:37of these new
18:38ideological platforms
18:40that are also popping up.
18:42Finally,
18:42I want to ask you
18:43because the report
18:43also points
18:44to more lone actor attacks.
18:47Doesn't that make
18:48preventing
18:49or addressing the threat
18:50almost impossible
18:52for law enforcement?
18:54Yeah,
18:55that's one of the
18:55challenging elements
18:57that we are also pointing out
18:59because, of course,
19:00if you have a lone actor
19:01using simple methods
19:03and that doesn't actually
19:06require a lot of preparation,
19:08but they are radicalized
19:10online
19:10and it also
19:11this provides
19:13lack of possibility
19:14for law enforcement
19:15to intervene
19:16in timely manners.
19:18Okay.
19:19Anna Sjobery
19:20for us
19:20speaking to us
19:21from Europol.
19:22Thank you so much
19:23for your time this morning.
19:24That's all we have time
19:26for today,
19:26I'm afraid.
19:27Thank you so much
19:28for tuning in.
19:29We'll be back
19:30at the same time,
19:31same place tomorrow.
19:32So we hope to see you then.
19:34In the meantime,
19:34take care.
19:46We'll be back to you then.
19:46We'll be back to you then.
19:49We'll be back to you then.
19:53We'll be back to you then.
19:55We'll be back to you then.
19:57We'll be back to you then.
19:58We'll be back to you then.
19:59We'll be back to you then.
20:00We'll be back to you then.
20:00Gracias por ver el video.
