00:13Good morning, it is Tuesday the 15th of September. I'm Maeve McMahon and this is Europe Today,

00:21your daily dose of European news and analysis live here on Euronews.

00:25Coming up, tech stocks across Europe have fallen sharply after global AI leaders called for a

00:32slowdown in the pace of AI. After a former anthropic researcher warned that AI could

00:39ultimately threaten humanity, Brussels is reiterating the need for global rules on AI.

00:45We'll speak to the leading EU lawmaker, Berando Benefey, in Strasbourg. This as Brussels is

00:51stepping up its efforts to protect children online. The European Commission is set to unveil

00:56its EU Kids Act this week with plans that could force platforms like TikTok and Instagram to create

01:04safer accounts for younger users. It's part of a wider push to limit social media access for under

01:1015s. We'll head over to Strasbourg and speak to the European Commission Vice President,

01:15Roxana Minsatu. Meanwhile, growing concerns over oil supplies to Europe and Asia. Saudi Arabia has

01:23shut a key oil pipeline following attacks, threatening a major route for exports to global markets.

01:30We'll bring you to Doha for an update from our correspondent, Adil Haleem.

01:34Meanwhile, France is pushing for EU countries to lift sanctions on one Uzbek-Russian oligarch

01:41as part of a prisoner release with Azerbaijan. The move is holding up EU efforts to renew

01:47restrictions against 2,600 people and companies for their role in Putin's war against Ukraine.

01:53This news comes just as the EU Commission President Ursula von der Leyen is getting ready

01:58to deliver her annual State of the Union speech tomorrow in Strasbourg. For more on this,

02:03I'm joined here on set by our political correspondent, Jorge Liberero, to discuss a little bit the hype

02:09and the very high expectations. Jorge, you know why this speech is important because you're here

02:14in the bristless bubble, but tell our viewers why it is. Well, I think it's important by default

02:18because it's the only big EU speech that we have every year. So the tradition began in 2010,

02:24so relatively new, to improve relations between the European Commission and the European Parliament.

02:29So it happens in mid-September. This is the start of the legislative cycle.

02:34The European Commission President goes to Strasbourg, addresses the Parliament and basically sets the

02:39agenda for the next 12 months. So the speech is known for its duration, about one hour, and also

02:45its scope because it covers multiple topics. It's a combination of announcements, new ideas and also

02:52reflections on the state of Europe, our challenges, the direction we're going.

02:57And what topics should we look out for? I guess this sanction story will feature as well.

03:01I think this one for sure. I think support for Ukraine sanctions on Russia will be high on the

03:06speech because we know, I mean, there's a new escalation that Russia is launching against

03:10Ukraine. The situation is very dire on the ground. We can also expect things about reforming the

03:17enlargement process. We can expect defence readiness after the strain of hybrid attacks we have seen

03:23across Europe, many of them attributed to Russia. And we can also see other topics, for instance,

03:28the social media restrictions for children that you mentioned at the beginning. We can expect,

03:33for instance, climate action after the devastating wildfires and the record-breaking heatwaves that

03:38we had this summer. We can expect migration to be there in the speech after the Theuta border

03:44crisis. And of course, China, because we know there's a deadline looming in October to really

03:49rebalance these trade relations. And I have to say there will be a section specially dedicated to our

03:55relations with Canada. Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney will be there in Strasbourg watching

04:00von 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. There's so much at stake for

04:08her. And of course, there's elections, major elections coming up in the next eight months.

04:11Indeed, there are major elections coming up. And it's possible by the time that she gives her next

04:17speech next year in Strasbourg, the political constellation around her will be completely different,

04:22profoundly changed, perhaps. Especially everybody's keeping an eye on France, where the far right is

04:29polling first ahead of the presidential elections. And let me tell you, Maeve, the European Union has never

04:35seen a far right France. We don't know what a far right France can do, can say, and how much

04:40it can paralyze

04:41our political project of integration. So if I were von der Leyen, I would make the most of my time

04:48now,

04:49before the window of opportunity closes suddenly next year. So keep an eye out, because this is a big,

04:56important moment for her.

04:57Well, and it's a very important moment, of course, for Euronews. And it's worth pointing out to our

05:01viewers that we will be bringing you a longer edition of Europe Today tomorrow morning from

05:05eight to ten. We'll be live in Strasbourg alongside our very own Maria Tadeo with non-stop

05:10interviews and bringing you that live speech of Ursula von der Leyen. So do not miss that.

05:15But now to get a bit of the mood ahead of that much-anticipated speech, we can head off to

05:20Strasbourg and bring in the Executive Vice President of the European Commission, that's

05:24Roxana Minsatou, who's responsible, of course, for social rights, skills and jobs.

05:29Good morning, Vice President. Thank 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?

05:47So we're joined from Strasbourg by Roxana Minsatou. That is the Executive Vice President of the

05:52European Commission. We seem to be having a little bit of a technical glitch trying to cross

05:56over to her. But I'm still here with Jorge in our studio, who can give us more of a teaser

06:02of that speech that's coming up tomorrow. I mean, as you said, Canada will feature greatly.

06:07And there was a bit of confusion over whether or not, as well, Ursula von der Leyen would be

06:10sticking around in order to watch the speech by Justin Trudeau, which will come, or Mark

06:15Carney even, which will come on Thursday.

06:17Yes, indeed. Initially, the spokesperson of Ursula von der Leyen said that she will not

06:21stay for his speech on Thursday. But then after the backlash, you know, they changed the

06:27line. And now she is indeed staying for his speech. So I think this is reciprocity.

06:32It is indeed. And of course, we can head back now to Strasbourg. That is, of course,

06:36where the action is and bring in Roxana Minsatu. Commissioner, excuse me there for the technical

06:41glitch. Just tell us, what should we be looking out for in that speech tomorrow?

06:49Good morning. Well, as usual, the President will take stock of our progress in the past year.

06:56We have had so many challenges to deal with, from cost of living to our energy security,

07:03our competitiveness, looking overall at the security landscape here in Europe and the support

07:08that we give to Ukraine, looking at children's safety online. So we can expect to look at the

07:16steps that we have done as Commission and what we plan next for the incoming year.

07:22And it will for sure be an inspirational message, one that will speak directly to each of the 450

07:30million Europeans that 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, not really focused on

07:42the millions of Europeans. But of course, we'll have to tune in tomorrow to have a listen. But today,

07:46of course, you're presenting the much anticipated Fair Labour Mobility Package, Commissioner.

07:51That's the biggest proposal of your mandate. Can you just tell us in practical terms,

07:55what will change for European workers here?

08:01Yeah, it's a game changer. I expect looking at a simple sentence that wherever you choose to

08:08travel in Europe, to study in Europe, to work in Europe, your social rights and your skills and

08:15your qualifications can travel with you. And that's the cornerstone of the single market,

08:20but also of the European social model. What we have seen in practice for decades in Europe,

08:25and at the same time now as we speak, is that maybe in order to get your professional

08:31qualifications recognized, when you move from your home state to another EU state, you have to

08:38make a lot of trips to different institutions. You have to wait for months, sometimes more than a year

08:43before you can get into a profession. You have to pay for that. It's also very complicated for employers,

08:52especially SMEs, to get the talent that they need. I have met so many talented people that have wasted

09:01simply their skills, their training for months, for years, that have worked in underqualified jobs because

09:08they couldn't get their skills recognized. So what we will do with this package is include digital AI,

09:16common frameworks through legislation, through regulations and directives. This will be a strongly

09:22legislative package so that we will make it faster and easier for EU nationals to have their diplomas recognized.

09:30We are looking at actually moving everything that we can into an app with all the technical background that is

09:38needed.

09:39But we're also going to look at social rights. So workers that are posted, workers that are working cross border

09:46or that have moved from the whole state, they 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, we'll keep a very close eye on that package. Executive Vice President Roxana Minsatou,

10:04thank you so much for joining us this morning on Europe Today there from Strasbourg. Now moving on,

10:10the US President Donald Trump has claimed that Ukraine and Russia have promised to stop strikes

10:15on energy targets as fuel prices continue to spike across the world. This comes after a weekend of Russian

10:21attacks that even struck a Ukrainian gas station just by the Polish border. For more, we're joined

10:26now here on set by our very own Sasha Vakilina. Good morning, Sasha. So just tell us what exactly

10:31has President Donald Trump said and do his words really carry weight?

10:36Well, they do certainly, but they did come as a surprise, not only to those who are covering the

10:40situation as journalists covering and following Russia's war against Ukraine, but even to the Ukrainian

10:43officials maybe, for whom that statement came in as a surprise, because for them that was a rather

10:48idea, proposal on the table, but not at all a done deal. When President Donald Trump said that the

10:54deal is done and he posted on his social media on Truth Social, Ukraine has agreed not to hit Russian

11:00energy targets. Russia has agreed to do likewise. The world's diesel price rise is mostly caused by the

11:07Russia-Ukraine war, not Iran. I think it's fair to say that, you know, it came as a surprise to

11:12everybody,

11:12whilst it was interesting to watch how it was taken and commented upon in Moscow with Russian

11:18officials saying that it was Ukraine promised not to target Russia's energy site, but there was not a

11:23single word about whether Moscow agreed to do the same. And how significant would it be if Ukraine did

11:29stop striking Russia's energy infrastructure and, of course, vice versa? It would be very significant

11:34indeed. This is something that Ukraine has been offering for months, this so-called energy truce. Now,

11:40it's important to differentiate the different strategies. Russia is targeting Ukraine's

11:44energy infrastructure, civilian energy infrastructure, trying to put pressure on the Ukrainian population,

11:50specifically, and to force Ukraine into surrender. When it comes to Ukraine, Ukraine's strikes on

11:56specifically Russia's oil facilities have a different aim. They are there to stop the money-making

12:02machine in the oil industry that is financing Russia's war against Ukraine. And those attacks had

12:07huge effect, recognized also according to Romanian presidents. Our colleagues by Euronews Romania spoke

12:14exclusively to the president of the country, Niku Shordan, who spoke about that. May let's take a listen.

12:22What we know for sure, right now, is that Russia's economy is suffering. And we also know that the

12:29Ukrainians managed to strike in depth, to hit logistics centers and refineries.

12:46The fact that, again, we are at a time when the society in the Russian Federation is feeling the

12:53effects of the war. This is new compared to a year ago. On 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, we do not really see Russia's willingness to come to the negotiating

13:25table.

13:26So, therefore, we must be prepared for this war to continue for at least a year or two.

13:39Energy truce, therefore, may, would have a huge effect. But at the same time, it doesn't mean that Russia would

13:44stop attacking Ukrainian civilian infrastructure, like the Ukrainian railways and the train that was

13:48attacked on Sunday morning, two kilometers close to the Polish border. The train that is always packed,

13:54the train that you and I know so well when you travel to Ukraine. And this remains one of those

13:58very, very few ways of traveling to and from Ukraine.

14:02Okay, Sasha, Vaklina, thank you so much for that update there. And we can move on now to

14:06the Middle East, where a series of attacks carried out by Yemen's Houthis using ballistic missiles and

14:12drones wounded over a dozen civilians in southern Saudi Arabia. This is the Pentagon says they're facing

14:18a shortfall in ammunition as a result of the Qasi war in Iran, for the impact on how the latest

14:23unrest is impacting our pockets. We can head over now to Doha, where our Adel Khalim is standing by for

14:29us. Good morning, Adel. So, look, we're seeing pressure on three critical energy routes at the

14:34same time. Just 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. And we may

14:45be seeing the formation of a perfect storm for global energy markets. You have the Strait of Hormuz

14:49on one side of the Arabian Peninsula, which is already extremely difficult for shipping.

14:54Saudi Arabia has an alternative, the East-West Pipeline, which allows oil to move across the

14:58country through the Red Sea, avoiding the Hormuz altogether. But that is now shut due to recent

15:03drone attacks. And we now understand it could take three to five weeks for it to repair,

15:06and that's significant because it was pumping out four million barrels of oil per day.

15:10And then on the other side, you have the Bab al-Mendab, the gateway from the Red Sea to the

15:15Indian

15:15Ocean. The Houthis have been advancing there, taking two strategic islands. So, essentially,

15:20the main route, the main alternative, and the Red Sea are all under pressure at the same time.

15:25And Europe is clearly concerned. European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen has condemned the attack

15:30on Saudi Arabia. And she said, we will continue working with our partners for safe,

15:34free navigation through the Strait of Hormuz, and for stability in the Middle East.

15:38We all have a stake in this. Now, oil prices rose 2% on Monday. And if this continues, Maeve,

15:43that can eventually filter through to fuel prices, transport costs, and inflation.

15:48Okay. Adele Halim, thank you so much for that live broadcast there from Doha. Now, moving on,

15:54almost one week after a former Anthropic employee said there's more than a 10% chance that AI could

16:00kill us all within a decade, several of those leading AI companies have raised the voice of

16:04alarm. OpenAI and Elon Musk are now open to, quote, slowing down their developments. For the view from

16:11the EU, we can bring in now the Italian MEP, Brando Benefei, who's in Strasbourg this morning.

16:16Good morning. Thank you so much for joining us. Just tell us, what's your view here on these

16:20latest comments around the AI tech boom? Are you worried as a regulator?

16:27I think we need to be worried because these are real risks that exist, the risk of loss of control.

16:34We should not underestimate them. And also we should not overestimate them in the sense that

16:42we have the technical capabilities to 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 has

16:57legislation to actually act in this sense, to investigate the risks of the most powerful

17:04models. These are the powers that the AI act at the beginning of August this year. So just a few

17:11weeks ago, give as given to the European Commission to actually play a public governance, public safety

17:19role on the risks of the most powerful models of AI. So we have been leading the effort globally on

17:27safety. And now everybody's talking about it. Now we need the political will to actually put this

17:34in place to actually work with the powers we have given the public institutions. And we need

17:39international cooperation. We need the US, we need China, we need the European Union to work together.

17:44On US, I mean, we heard last night President Donald Trump saying this is a hoax,

17:48these latest warnings. Do you think we really need a, it's time for a global rule book, one rule book

17:54on AI?

17:57Well, I want to be clear. We have in a few months, a vote in the US that will change

18:07the political

18:07balance. And I think that President Trump will need to take that into account. His reactions for now

18:14are, we can say, a bit in another direction than the leaders of the main companies, but also of

18:25prominent voices on AI regulation from academics like Professor Benjo to Senator Sanders that have

18:33said it clearly, we need a global treaty on this. And I want to insist that the European Union

18:39has the power to lead on that. I hope that President von der Leyen will say it very clearly during

18:45the

18:46State of the Union speech that we are already paving the way for a safer AI development from

18:53the EU side. And we should join forces for this. We need global cooperation. And the EU has to raise

19:00its voice on the global stage.

19:03Okay. Well, the role of AI in our lives, of course, here in Europe will feature, I'm sure,

19:06a lot in that State of the Union speech that will be delivered tomorrow in Strasbourg by the European

19:11Commission President Ursula von der Leyen.
