00:24Euronews
00:25Coming up, tech stocks across Europe have fallen sharply after global AI leaders called for a slowdown in the pace
00:34of AI.
00:35After a former anthropic researcher warned that AI could ultimately threaten humanity, Brussels is reiterating the need for global rules
00:44on AI.
00:45We'll speak to the leading EU lawmaker, Brando Benefey, in Strasbourg.
00:49This as Brussels is stepping up its efforts to protect children online.
00:54The European Commission is set to unveil its EU Kids Act this week, with plans that could force platforms like
01:01TikTok and Instagram to create safer accounts for younger users.
01:07It's part of a wider push to limit social media access for under-15s.
01:11We'll head over to Strasbourg and speak to the European Commission Vice President, Roxana Minsato.
01:16Meanwhile, growing concerns over oil supplies to Europe and Asia.
01:22Saudi Arabia has shut 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 as part of a prisoner
01:42release with Azerbaijan.
01:44The move is holding up EU efforts to renew restrictions against 2,600 people and companies for their role in
01:51Putin's war against Ukraine.
01:54This news comes just as the EU Commission President, Ursula von der Leyen, is getting ready to deliver her annual
01:59State of the Union speech tomorrow in Strasbourg.
02:02For more on this, I'm joined here on set by our political correspondent, Jorge Lebelero, to discuss a little bit
02:08the hype and the very high expectations.
02:11Jorge, you know why this speech is important, because you're here in the Brussels bubble, but tell our viewers why
02:15it is.
02:16Well, I think it's important by default, because it's the only big EU speech that we have every year.
02:21So, the tradition began in 2010, so 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 agenda for the next 12 months.
02:41So, the speech is known for its duration, about one hour, and also its scope, because it covers multiple topics.
02:49It's a combination of announcements, new ideas, and also reflections on the state of Europe, our challenges, the direction we're
02:57going.
02:57And what topics should we look out for? I guess this sanctions 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 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.
03:13We can also expect things about reforming the enlargement process.
03:18We can expect defence readiness after the strain of hybrid attacks we have seen across Europe, many of them attributed
03:25to Russia.
03:26And we can also see other topics, for instance, the social media restrictions for children that you mentioned at the
03:31beginning.
03:31We can expect, for instance, climate action after the devastating wildfires and the record-breaking heatwaves that we had this
03:39summer.
03:39We 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 to really rebalance these strait relations.
03:51And I have to say there will be a section specially dedicated to our relations with Canada.
03:56Canadian 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.
04:13And it's possible by 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.
04:24Especially everybody's keeping an eye on France, where the far right is pulling 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, and how much it can paralyze our political
04:42project of integration.
04:44So, if I were von der Leyen, I would make the most of my time now before the window of
04:50opportunity 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 a longer edition of Europe Today
05:05tomorrow morning from 8 to 10.
05:06We'll be live in Strasbourg alongside our very own Maria Tadeo with non-stop interviews and bringing you that live
05:12speech 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, we can head off to
05:20Strasbourg and bring in the Executive Vice President of the European Commission,
05:24that's Roxana Minsatu, who's responsible, of course, for social rights, skills and jobs.
05:30Good 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?
05:47So, 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, who can give us more of a teaser of that speech
06:02that'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, Ursula von der Leyen would be
06:10sticking around in order to watch the speech by Justin Trudeau, which will come, or Mark Carney, even, which will
06:17come 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.
06:38And bring in Roxana Minsatu.
06:39Commissioner, excuse me there for the technical glitch.
06:42Just 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, from cost of living to our energy security, our competitiveness, looking
07:05overall at the security landscape here in Europe and the support that we give to Ukraine, looking at children's safety
07:12online.
07:13So, we can expect to look at the steps that we have done as commission and what we plan next
07:20for the incoming year.
07:22And it will, for sure, be an inspirational message, one that will speak directly to each of the 450 million
07:31Europeans 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 the millions
07:42of 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 Fair Labour Mobility Package, Commissioner.
07:51That's the biggest proposal of your mandate.
07:54Can 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, that wherever you choose to travel in Europe, to study in Europe, to
08:11work in Europe, your social rights and your skills and your qualifications can travel with you.
08:17And that's the cornerstone of the single market, but also of the European social model.
08:22What we have seen in practice for decades in Europe, and at the same time now as we speak, is
08:28that maybe in order to get your professional qualifications recognized,
08:33when you move from your home state to another EU state, you have to make a lot of trips to
08:39different institutions.
08:40You have to wait for months, sometimes more than a year, before you can get into a profession.
08:46Even though you have the training, you have to pay for that.
08:49It's also very complicated for employers, especially SMEs, to get the talent that they need.
08:56I have met so many talented people that, you know, have wasted simply their skills, their training for months, for
09:04years,
09:04that have worked in underqualified jobs because they couldn't get their skills recognized.
09:11So what we will do with this package is include digital, AI, common frameworks through legislation, through regulations and directives.
09:20This will be a strongly legislative package so that we will make it faster and easier for EU nationals to
09:28have 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.
09:42So workers that are posted, workers that are working cross-border or that have moved from the host 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, we'll keep a very close eye on that package.
10:03Executive Vice President Roxana Minsati, thank 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 that Ukraine and Russia have promised to stop strikes on
10:15energy targets
10:16as fuel prices continue to spike across the world.
10:19This comes after a weekend of Russian attacks that 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.
10:29Good morning, Sasha.
10:30So just tell us, what exactly has 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 situation
10:40as journalists,
10:41covering and following Russia's work in Ukraine, but even to the Ukrainian officials, maybe,
10:44for whom that statement came in as a surprise, because for them, that was a rather idea, proposal on the
10:50table,
10:50but not at all a done deal when 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, not Iran.
11:09I think it's fair to say that, you know, it came as a surprise to everybody, whilst it was interesting
11:14to watch how it was taken
11:15and commented upon in Moscow with Russian officials saying that it was Ukraine promised not to target Russia's energy site,
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 and, of course, vice versa?
11:33Would be very significant indeed.
11:35This is something that Ukraine has been offering for months, this so-called energy truce.
11:40Now, it's important to differentiate the different strategies.
11:43Russia is targeting Ukraine's energy infrastructure, civilian energy infrastructure,
11:47trying to put pressure on the Ukrainian population, specifically, and to force Ukraine into surrender.
11:53When it comes to Ukraine, Ukraine's strikes on, specifically, Russia's oil facilities have a different aim.
11:59They are there to stop the money-making machine, the oil industry that is financing Russia's war against Ukraine.
12:06And those attacks had huge effect, recognized also, according to Romanian presidents.
12:12Our colleagues by Euronews Romania spoke exclusively to the president of the country, Niku Shordan, who 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, to hit logistic centers and refineries.
12:44The fact that, again, we are at a time when the society in the Russian Federation is feeling the effects
12:53of the war.
12:54This is new compared to a year ago.
12:56On the front line, things are almost unchanged, because drone technology makes any kind of territorial advance very expensive.
13:18But we do not see, in these conditions, we do not really see Russia's willingness
13:24to come to the negotiating table.
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.
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, Vaklina, thank you so much for that update there.
14:05And we can move on now to the Middle East,
14:08where a series of attacks carried out by Yemen's Houthis using ballistic missiles and drones
14:12wounded over a dozen civilians in southern Saudi Arabia.
14:15This is the Pentagon says they're facing a shortfall in ammunition as a result of the Qassi 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, Adel.
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.
14:48You 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.
15:10And then on the other side, you have the Bab al-Mendab,
15:12the gateway from the Red Sea to the Indian Ocean.
15:16The Houthis have been advancing there, taking two strategic islands.
15:20So, essentially, the main route, the main alternative,
15:22and the Red Sea are all under pressure at the same time.
15:25And Europe is clearly concerned.
15:27European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen
15:29has condemned the attack on Saudi Arabia.
15:30And she said,
15:31We 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.
15:41And if this continues, Maeve,
15:43that can eventually filter through to fuel prices,
15:46transport costs, and inflation.
15:49Okay, Adel Halim,
15:50thank you so much for that live broadcast there from Doha.
15:53Now, moving on,
15:54almost one week after a former Anthropic employee
15:57said there's more than a 10% chance
15:59that AI could kill us all within a decade.
16:02Several of those leading AI companies
16:03have raised the voice of alarm.
16:05OpenAI and Elon Musk are now open to,
16:08quote, slowing down their developments.
16:10For the view from the EU,
16:11we can bring in now the Italian MEP,
16:13Brando Benefey,
16:14who's in Strasbourg this morning.
16:16Good morning.
16:16Thank you so much for joining us.
16:19Just tell us,
16:19what's your view here on these latest comments
16:21around the AI tech boom?
16:23Are you worried as a regulator?
16:27I think we need to be worried
16:29because these are real risks that exist,
16:33the risk of loss of control.
16:34We should not underestimate them.
16:38And also, we should not overestimate them
16:41in the sense that we have the technical capabilities
16:44to put guardrails,
16:46to slow down the pace in a way that is safe.
16:49We need the political will to do it.
16:52And I want to underline that the European Union
16:55already has legislation to actually act in this sense,
17:00to investigate the risks of the most powerful models.
17:05These are the powers that the AI act
17:08at the beginning of August this year,
17:10so just a few weeks ago,
17:13has given to the European Commission
17:15to actually play a public governance,
17:18public safety role
17:19on the risks of the most powerful models of AI.
17:23So we have been leading the effort globally on safety,
17:27and now everybody's talking about it.
17:30Now we need the political will
17:32to actually put this in place,
17:34to actually work with the powers
17:37we have given the public institutions.
17:39And we need international cooperation.
17:40We need the U.S.
17:41We need China.
17:42We need the European Union to work together.
17:44On U.S., I mean,
17:45we heard last night President Donald Trump
17:47saying this is a hoax,
17:48these latest warnings.
17:50Do you think we really need a...
17:51It's time for a global rulebook,
17:54one rulebook on AI?
17:57Well, I want to be clear.
18:00We have, in a few months,
18:04a vote in the U.S.
18:06that will change the political balance.
18:08And I think that President Trump
18:10will need to take that into account.
18:13His reactions for now are,
18:16we can say,
18:18a bit in another direction
18:20than the leaders of the main companies,
18:24but also of prominent voices
18:26on AI regulation,
18:28from academics like Professor Benjo
18:31to Senator Sanders
18:33that have said it clearly,
18:34we need a global treaty on this.
18:36And I want to insist
18:38that the European Union
18:39has the power to lead on that.
18:41I hope that President von der Leyen
18:44will say it very clearly
18:45during the State of the Union speech
18:47that we are already paving the way
18:50for a safer AI development
18:53from the EU side,
18:54and we should join forces for this.
18:57We need global cooperation,
18:58and the U.S. has to raise its voice
19:01on the global stage.
19:02Okay, well, the role of AI
19:04in our lives, of course,
19:05here in Europe will feature,
19:05I'm sure, a lot in that State
19:08of the Union speech
19:09that will be delivered tomorrow
19:10in Strasbourg
19:10by the European Commission President,
19:12Ursula von der Leyen.
19:13Branden van der Leyen speaking
19:13just there from Strasbourg.
