02:30So it happens in mid-September.
02:32This is the start of the legislative cycle.
02:34The European Commission President goes to Strasbourg,
02:37addresses the Parliament and basically sets the agenda for the next 12 months.
02:42So the speech is known for its duration, about one hour,
02:45and also its scope because it covers multiple topics.
02:49It's a combination of announcements, new ideas,
02:52and also reflections on the state of Europe,
02:55our challenges, the direction we're going.
02:57And what topics should we look at for?
02:59I guess this sanction story will feature as well.
03:01I think this one for sure.
03:03I think support for Ukraine sanctions on Russia will be high on the speech
03:07because we know, I mean, there's a new escalation that Russia is launching against Ukraine.
03:11The situation is very dire on the ground.
03:14We can also expect things about reforming the enlargement process.
03:18We can expect defence readiness after the string of hybrid attacks we have seen across Europe,
03:24many of them attributed to Russia.
03:26And we can also see other topics.
03:27For instance, the social media restrictions for children that you mentioned at the beginning.
03:31We can expect, for instance, climate action after the devastating wildfires
03:36and the record-breaking heatwaves that we had this summer.
03:40We can expect migration to be there in the speech after the Ceuta border crisis.
03:45And of course, China, because we know there's a deadline looming in October
03:49to really rebalance these trade relations.
03:51And I have to say, there will be a section specially dedicated to our relations with Canada.
03:57Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney will be there in Strasbourg watching von der Leyen give this speech.
04:02And he'll be speaking then on Thursday, won't he?
04:04But I mean, many say this is the most important speech of her mandate.
04:07There's so much at stake for her.
04:09And of course, there's elections, major elections coming up in the next eight months.
04:11Indeed, there are major elections coming up.
04:14And it's possible, but that the time that she gives her next speech next year in Strasbourg,
04:19the political constellation around her will be completely different, profoundly changed, perhaps.
04:25Especially everybody's keeping an eye on France,
04:28where the far right is polling first ahead of the presidential elections.
04:32And let me tell you, Maeve, the European Union has never seen a far right France.
04:37We don't know what a far right France can do, can say,
04:40and how much it can paralyze our political project of integration.
04:44So if I were von der Leyen, I would make the most of my time now
04:49before the window of opportunity closes suddenly next year.
04:53So keep an eye out, because this is a big, important moment for her.
04:57Well, and it's a very important moment, of course, for Euronews.
05:00And it's worth pointing out to our viewers that we will be bringing you
05:03a longer edition of Europe Today tomorrow morning from 8 to 10.
05:06We'll be live in Strasbourg alongside our very own Maria Tadeo with non-stop interviews
05:11and bringing you that live speech of Ursula von der Leyen.
05:14So do not miss that.
05:15But now to get a bit of the mood ahead of that much-anticipated speech,
05:19we can head off to Strasbourg and bring in the Executive Vice President
05:22of the European Commission, that's Roxana Minsatu,
05:26who's responsible, of course, for social rights, skills and jobs.
05:29Good morning, Vice President.
05:31Thank you so much for joining us here live on Europe Today.
05:34Just tell us, what are you looking out for in this State of the Union speech tomorrow?
05:38In this State of the Union speech tomorrow.
05:47So we're joined from Strasbourg by Roxana Minsatu.
05:50That is the Executive Vice President of the European Commission.
05:53We seem to be having a little bit of a technical glitch trying to cross over to her.
05:57But I'm still here with Jorge in our studio,
06:00who can give us more of a teaser of that speech that's coming up tomorrow.
06:03I mean, as you said, Canada will feature greatly.
06:07And there was a bit of a confusion over whether or not, as well,
06:10Ursula von der Leyen will be sticking around in order to watch the speech
06:13by Justin Trudeau, which will come on Thursday.
06:15Mark Carney, even, will come on Thursday.
06:17Yes, indeed.
06:18Initially, the spokesperson of Ursula von der Leyen said that she will not stay for his speech on Thursday.
06:24But then after the backlash, you know, they changed the line.
06:27And now she is indeed staying for his speech.
06:30So I think this is reciprocity.
06:32It is indeed.
06:33And of course, we can head back now to Strasbourg.
06:36That is, of course, where the action is and bring in Roxana Minsatu.
06:39Commissioner, excuse me there for the technical glitch.
06:41Just tell us, what should we be looking out for in that speech tomorrow?
06:49Good morning.
06:50Well, as usual, the president will take stock of our progress in the past year.
06:56We have had so many challenges to deal with,
06:59from cost of living to our energy security, our competitiveness,
07:05looking over all that security landscape here in Europe
07:08and the support that we give to Ukraine,
07:10looking at children's safety online.
07:13So we can expect to look at the steps that we have done as commission
07:18and what we plan next for the incoming year.
07:23And it will for sure be an inspirational message,
07:27one that will speak directly to each of the 450 million Europeans.
07:32That will be, I hope, a lot of them listening to the State of the Union speech.
07:37Well, that's a good point, because often this is a very policy-heavy speech,
07:41not really focused on the millions of Europeans.
07:43But, of course, we'll have to tune in tomorrow to have a listen.
07:45But today, of course, you're presenting the much-anticipated
07:48Fair Labour Mobility Package, Commissioner.
07:51That's the biggest proposal of your mandate.
07:53Can you just tell us, in practical terms, what will change for European workers here?
08:01Yeah, it's a game-changer.
08:03I expect, looking at a simple sentence,
08:07that wherever you choose to travel in Europe,
08:10to study in Europe, to work in Europe,
08:12your social rights and your skills and your qualifications can travel with you.
08:17And that's the cornerstone of the single market,
08:20but also of the European social model.
08:22What we have seen in practice for decades in Europe,
08:26and at the same time now as we speak,
08:28is that maybe in order to get your professional qualifications recognized,
08:33when you move from your home state to another EU state,
08:37you have to make a lot of trips to different institutions.
08:40You have to wait for months, sometimes more than a year,
08:43before you can get into a profession,
08:46even though you have the training, you have to pay for that.
08:50It's also very complicated for employers,
08:53especially SMEs, to get the talent that they need.
08:56I have met so many talented people that, you know,
09:00have wasted simply their skills, their training for months, for years,
09:04that have worked in underqualified jobs
09:08because they couldn't get their skills recognized.
09:11So what we will do with this package is include digital, AI,
09:16common frameworks through legislation, through regulations and directives.
09:21This will be a strongly legislative package
09:23so that we will make it faster and easier
09:27for EU nationals to have their diplomas recognized.
09:30We are looking at actually moving everything that we can into an app
09:35with all the technical background that is needed.
09:39But we're also going to look at social rights.
09:42So workers that are posted, workers that are working cross-border
09:47or that have moved from the whole state,
09:49they need to have a safe, digital, social security pass.
09:55And we are actually going to present what it will be all about.
10:00OK.
10:00We'll keep a very close eye on that package.
10:03Executive Vice President Roxana Minsatou.
10:05Thank you so much for joining us this morning on Europe Today there from Strasbourg.
10:09Now, moving on, the US President Donald Trump has claimed
10:12that Ukraine and Russia have promised to stop strikes on energy targets
10:16as fuel prices continue to spike across the world.
10:19This comes after a weekend of Russian attacks
10:21that even struck a Ukrainian gas station just by the Polish border.
10:26For more, we're joined now here on set by our very own Sasha Vakilina.
10:29Vakilina, good morning, Sasha.
10:30So just tell us, what exactly has President Donald Trump said
10:34and do his words really carry weight?
10:36Well, they do, certainly, but they did come as a surprise,
10:38not only to those who are covering the situation as journalists,
10:41covering and following Russia's war against Ukraine,
10:43but even to the Ukrainian officials, maybe,
10:44for whom that statement came in as a surprise,
10:47because for them that was a rather idea, a proposal on the table,
10:50but not at all a done deal,
10:52when President Donald Trump said that the deal is done
10:55and he posted on his social media on Truth Social,
10:58Ukraine has agreed not to hit Russian energy targets.
11:01Russia has agreed to do likewise.
11:04The world's diesel price rise is mostly caused by the Russia-Ukraine war,
11:09not Iran.
11:09I think it's fair to say that, you know,
11:11it came as a surprise to everybody,
11:12whilst it was interesting to watch how it was taken
11:15and commented upon in Moscow with Russian officials,
11:19saying that it was Ukraine promised not to target Russia's energy side,
11:23but there was not a single word about whether Moscow agreed to do the same.
11:27And how significant would it be if Ukraine did stop striking Russia's energy infrastructure
11:32and, of course, vice versa?
11:33It would be very significant indeed.
11:35This is something that Ukraine has been offering for months,
11:38this so-called energy truce.
11:40Now, it's important to differentiate the different strategies.
11:43Russia is targeting Ukraine's energy infrastructure,
11:46civilian energy infrastructure,
11:47trying to put pressure on the Ukrainian population,
11:50specifically, and to force Ukraine into surrender.
11:53When it comes to Ukraine,
11:55Ukraine's strikes on specifically Russia's oil facilities have a different aim.
12:00They are there to stop the money-making machine,
12:03the oil industry that is financing Russia's war against Ukraine.
12:06And those attacks had huge effect.
12:09Recognized also, according to Romanian presidents,
12:12our colleagues by Euronews Romania spoke exclusively
12:14to the president of the country, Niku Shordan,
12:17who spoke about that.
12:18Maybe let's take a listen.
12:22What we know for sure right now is that Russia's economy is suffering.
12:27And we also know that the Ukrainians managed to strike in depth
12:31to hit logistic centers and refineries.
12:47The fact that, again, we are at a time when the society in the Russian Federation
12:52is feeling the effects of the war.
12:54This is new compared to a year ago.
12:56On the front line, things are almost unchanged,
12:59because drone technology makes any kind of territorial advance very expensive.
13:19But we do not see, in these conditions,
13:22we do not really see Russia's willingness to come to the negotiating table.
13:26So, therefore, we must be prepared for this war to continue
13:30for at least a year or two.
13:33For a little bit, for a year or two of this war.
13:39Energy truce, therefore, may, would have a huge effect.
13:42But at the same time, it doesn't mean that Russia would stop attacking Ukrainian civilian infrastructure,
13:46like the Ukrainian railways and the train that was attacked on Sunday morning,
13:50two kilometers close to the Polish border.
13:53The train that is always packed, the train that you and I know so well when you travel to Ukraine.
13:57And this remains one of those very, very few ways of traveling to and from Ukraine.
14:02Okay, Sasha, Vakalina, thank you so much for that update there.
14:06And we can move on now to the Middle East,
14:08where a series of attacks carried out by Yemen's Houthis
14:10using ballistic missiles and drones
14:12wounded over a dozen civilians in southern Saudi Arabia.
14:16This is the Pentagon says they're facing a shortfall in ammunition
14:19as a result of the Qasi war in Iran.
14:22For the impact on how the latest unrest is impacting our pockets,
14:25we can head over now to Doha, where our Adel Khalim is standing by for us.
14:30Good morning, Adele.
14:30So, look, we're seeing pressure on three critical energy routes at the same time.
14:34Just tell us, how serious is the situation and what does it mean for Europe?
14:41Maeve, it's very serious because these three pressure points are all connected
14:44and we may be seeing the formation of a perfect storm for global energy markets.
14:49You have the Strait of Hormuz on one side of the Arabian Peninsula,
14:52which is already extremely difficult for shipping.
14:54Saudi Arabia has an alternative, the East-West Pipeline,
14:57which allows oil to move across the country through the Red Sea,
14:59avoiding the Hormuz altogether.
15:01But that is now shut due to recent drone attacks.
15:04And we now understand it could take three to five weeks for it to repair.
15:07And that's significant because it was pumping out four million barrels of oil per day.
15:11And then on the other side, you have the Bab al-Mendab,
15:13the gateway from the Red Sea to the Indian Ocean.
15:16The Houthis have been advancing there, taking two strategic islands.
15:19So essentially, the main route, the main alternative and the Red Sea
15:23are all under pressure at the same time.
15:25And Europe is clearly concerned.
15:27European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen has condemned the attack on Saudi Arabia.
15:31And she said,
15:32We will continue working with our partners for safe, free navigation
15:35through the Strait of Hormuz and for stability in the Middle East.
15:38We all have a stake in this.
15:39Now, oil prices rose 2% on Monday.
15:42And if this continues, Maeve,
15:43that can eventually filter through to fuel prices, transport costs and inflation.
15:49Okay, Adele, Halim, thank you so much for that live broadcast there from Doha.
15:53Now, moving on, almost one week after a former Anthropic employee
15:57said there's more than a 10% chance that AI could kill us all within a decade.
16:02Several of those leading AI companies have raved the voice of alarm.
16:05OpenAI and Elon Musk are now open to, quote,
16:08slowing down their developments.
16:10For the view from the EU, we can bring in now the Italian MEP,
16:13Brando Benefey, who's in Strasbourg this morning.
16:16Good morning.
16:16Thank you so much for joining us.
16:19Just tell us, what's your view here on these latest comments around the AI tech boom?
16:23Are you worried as a regulator?
16:27I think we need to be worried because these are real risks that exist,
16:33the risk of loss of control.
16:35We should not underestimate them.
16:38and also we should not overestimate them in the sense that we have the technical capabilities
16:44to put guardrails, to slow down the pace in a way that is safe.
16:49We need the political will to do it and I want to underline that the European Union already
16:55has legislation to actually act in this sense, to investigate the risks of the most powerful models.
17:05These are the powers that the AI act at the beginning of August this year, so just a few weeks
17:12ago,
17:13give as given to the European Commission to actually play a public governance,
17:18public safety role on the risks of the most powerful models of AI.
17:23So we have been leading the effort globally on safety and now everybody's talking about it.
17:30Now we need the political will to actually put this in place,
17:35to actually work with the powers we have given the public institutions.
17:39and we need international cooperation.
17:40We need the U.S., we need China, we need the European Union to work together.
17:44On U.S., I mean, we heard last night President Donald Trump saying this is a hoax,
17:48these latest warnings.
17:50Do you think we really need a, it's time for a global rulebook, one rulebook on AI?
17:57Well, I want to be clear.
18:01We have in a few months a vote in U.S. that will change the political balance.
18:08and I think that President Trump will need to take that into account.
18:13His reactions for now are, we can say, a bit in another direction than the leaders of the main companies,
18:24but also of prominent voices on AI regulation from academics like Professor Benjo to Senator Sanders
18:33that have said it clearly, we need a global treaty on this.
18:37and I want to insist that the European Union has the power to lead on that.
18:41I hope that President von der Leyen will say it very clearly during the State of the Union speech
18:47that we are already paving the way for a safer AI development from the EU side
18:54and we should join forces for this.
18:57We need global cooperation and the U.S. to raise its voice on the global stage.
19:02OK, well, the role of AI in our lives, of course, here in Europe will feature, I'm sure,
19:07a lot in that State of the Union speech that will be delivered tomorrow in Strasbourg
19:10by the European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen.
19:13Branden van der Leyen speaking to us there from Strasbourg.
