00:14Bom dia, é sexta-feira, você está assistindo Euronews, e isso é Europe Today.
00:22Coming up, Volodymyr Zelensky and Donald Trump have met at the U.N. General Assembly in New York as strikes
00:29continue to cross Ukraine.
00:31Trump called the meeting very fruitful.
00:34Both leaders were figuring out a way to end the war, Trump said.
00:38But there's been no let-up in Russia's bombardment across Ukraine, with more attacks on the capital Kiev,
00:44as well as ballistic missile and drone strikes on railways, energy facilities and residential homes.
00:52The U.S. President and the leaders of Greenland and Denmark signed an agreement that permits a larger U.S.
00:58military presence on the territory.
00:59It may resolve a standoff over the strategically located and mineral-rich island.
01:05The agreement, signed during Trump's visit to the U.N. General Assembly in New York,
01:10stops short of Trump's demand that the U.S. adopt Greenland as a U.S. territory,
01:15to head of the growing Arctic presence of Russia and China.
01:18Leaders of Denmark and Greenland had argued against the complete U.S. takeover.
01:24And conflicting reports emerged from Tehran yesterday over whether Iran had privately offered to reopen the Strait of Hormuz within
01:33seven days.
01:34News agencies quoted unnamed Iranian officials as saying that the proposal had been conveyed to Washington through mediators,
01:42a claim Iranian state-affiliated media quickly denied.
01:45The proposal reportedly aims to achieve a permanent end to the war between the two countries and revive diplomatic relations.
01:53This is not the first time Tehran has sent conflicting signals about a potential agreement.
02:00Welcome to the program. I'm Stefan Grobe.
02:03Donald Trump and Volodymyr Zelenskyy have met in New York as Washington steps up efforts to end the war in
02:10Ukraine.
02:10Trump told the U.N. that the U.S. is working closely with both Kiev and Moscow and that he
02:17expects the war to end sooner than many people think.
02:20But Zelenskyy is bringing a more immediate proposal to the table,
02:24a reciprocal halt to attacks on energy infrastructure and in the Black Sea.
02:29Our Ukraine correspondent, Sasha Vakulina, joins us now to bring us up to speed.
02:34Good morning, Sasha. So let's start with Ukraine's proposal.
02:39What is Zelenskyy asking for?
02:41A full and total energy ceasefire for all of the attacks on both sides, for Kiev and for Moscow.
02:48This is something that Ukrainian officials have been trying to push forward for months now,
02:52specifically after a very harsh winter last year, Stefan.
02:56And now, you know, when the weather is already changing and Russia is deliberately attacking Ukraine's energy infrastructure,
03:04this is something that Kiev insists upon.
03:06And this is the idea that Zelenskyy is trying to pitch to Trump.
03:09Now, the U.S. president also last week, as you remember, preemptively announced the energy truce,
03:14but that did not anyhow materialize, with Moscow continuing to attack Kiev
03:20and Kiev continuing its long-range strikes against Russia's oil refineries.
03:25Now, Kiev insists it is ready to stop at any moment, but only when Russia stops.
03:31And that has not happened.
03:32So Trump told the UN that Washington is working closely with both Russia and Ukraine,
03:38and that a deal will come sooner than people understand.
03:42So after this meeting with Zelenskyy, is there now a clear path towards a ceasefire and peace?
03:48Not yet. No clear path and no concrete proposal.
03:51But yes, indeed, Donald Trump sounded more optimistic when he made that statement,
03:55when he was addressing the United Nations General Assembly.
03:57Let's take a listen to it.
03:59We're working very closely with the leaders of Russia and Ukraine,
04:03and we will get that one done.
04:06It's going to happen, I think, more quickly than people understand.
04:10Donald Trump did not reveal all the details of how exactly he's going to get that done,
04:13but he did mention that he can also impose more sanctions and tariffs to add that pressure on Moscow
04:20to stop its war against Ukraine.
04:23And one more, Sasha, how does this fit into the, say, wider U.S. diplomatic effort,
04:29especially the work of Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner?
04:33We have been seeing Washington's renewed push and diplomatic push,
04:37trying to put an end to Russia's war against Ukraine.
04:41And on Tuesday evening, reportedly, there was a meeting between U.S. envoys of Witkoff and Kushner
04:47and the Ukrainian negotiating team alongside the national security advisors from the U.K., France, and Germany.
04:54And also then, today, we're going to keep an eye on the meeting between Marco Rubio and Sergei Lavrov,
04:58who is in the U.S. staff.
05:01Now, another thing here on the agenda is something that Zelensky also spoke about on Tuesday,
05:06possible trilateral meeting between Donald Trump, Volodymyr Zelensky, and Vladimir Putin.
05:11Now, Zelensky said he is ready to meet Putin at any moment,
05:14and this is something that is now on the agenda,
05:16possibly for a meeting at the G20 summit in Miami in December.
05:20All right, Sasha, thank you very much.
05:22Our Ukraine correspondent, Sasha Vakulina, on the Trump-Zelensky meeting.
05:26The Latvian Prime Minister, Andres Kulberg, spoke exclusively to Euronews about the nitty-gritty
05:33of a sanctions saga that gripped Brussels, which ultimately resulted in two Russian businessmen
05:39coming off the EU's blacklist.
05:41While the Latvian leader welcomed getting tough on Moscow,
05:44he expressed concern about the legacy it leaves.
05:47For more on this, I'm now joined by our defence correspondent, Angela Skugins.
05:52Good morning, Angie.
05:54Bring us up to speed on this.
05:55Good morning, Stefan.
05:56So, yes, I spoke exclusively with the Latvian Prime Minister, Andres Kulberg,
06:00yesterday after the news broke that Latvia had dropped its veto
06:04against the EU's latest sanctions package against Russia.
06:08The reason that Riga dug its heels in so significantly against this
06:12is that France successfully lobbied for the removal of Aleša Uzmanov
06:17from the sanctions list as part of a prisoner swap deal with Azerbaijan
06:21and Slovakia with the removal of Mikhail Friedman.
06:24Riga didn't want this, as well as a range of other nations, particularly the Baltics.
06:30This means now that these individuals can travel to the European Union
06:35and access money frozen within the European Union.
06:39They haven't been able to do this since 2022.
06:41But the gist of why the Latvian Prime Minister dropped his veto,
06:46instead moving to an abstention,
06:47is that he didn't want to risk the 2,600 other individuals and entities
06:53that are a part of this package, effectively now sanctioned for the next three years.
06:59He did warn, however, that this could set a dangerous precedent
07:02when it comes to haggling over the sanctions packages in particular.
07:06He doesn't want this to be a political bargaining chip in the future.
07:12So I spoke to Andrus Kulbergs and I started by asking him
07:15whether he was disappointed by Paris and Bratislava when it comes to this issue.
07:21Generally, yes, because Latvia stood to the end,
07:26the last one in Europe to be against this,
07:29because we consider if war is continuing
07:32and the aggression and the occupation of Ukraine is happening,
07:36there cannot be any discussion of any sanctions.
07:40Either it is sports, what we've seen, either culture,
07:43and now, one by one, cherry-picking out of sanctions,
07:46that is not the way to go.
07:48That is normalising Russia.
07:50So, but there, I cannot communicate
07:54and I cannot know the reasons behind the national security aspects
07:58of each of those countries' positions.
08:01I can't speak for them, but I speak for Latvia
08:05and for our position and for Europe's unity.
08:08It's important.
08:09You spoke on the phone to French President Emmanuel Macron.
08:11Did he not communicate why he needed that individual in particular to be delisted?
08:17I understand it's a matter of France's national security,
08:21a very highly important matter,
08:23which should be communicated by Macron himself, Emmanuel.
08:27So, I would not be comfortable on communicating this further
08:33because that's not my business at the moment.
08:37I'm worried an important point is about Latvia,
08:40the eastern flank security.
08:43That's because these two individuals directly are associated also in Latvia
08:48because we have their frozen assets here.
08:51And that's the reason we are worried about our security,
08:55Europe's eastern flank security.
08:58Thus, I have pushed as well for this not to happen.
09:02So, that's why we were the last ones standing.
09:05And we said we had a choice.
09:07We had a choice to stand to the end, but that was a high risk of European unity.
09:13And it was an issue.
09:14Do we let go 2,600 by end of today?
09:19And we consulted with Ukraine about it, with Mr. Zelensky and the prime minister.
09:24And it's also their point.
09:27And they also said it's not worth risking that we let loose all 2,600, including Putin himself.
09:33Thus, it's better to keep the unity and have this compromise.
09:39And we stressed as well that we have to have more allied forces in Latvia.
09:45And we need the support of France.
09:47And France already did good with the Rafale jet fighter fighting off the drones, what we have.
09:54But we need more presence here.
09:55And that is something we both agreed.
09:57Mr. Macron has also agreed to come over to Latvia to see himself the situation on the eastern flank.
10:04You're talking a lot about unity here, particularly from French President Emmanuel Macron.
10:08But still, are you not disappointed in the way that this has played out?
10:12You've managed to save face.
10:13But what message does it send to the 2,600 individuals and entities that are still listed?
10:20Could they compromise or negotiate to try and get delisted as well?
10:23We spoke all night and this day.
10:26Very important matter is that we all have in place 36 months instead of six months.
10:34So 36 months frozen.
10:36Nothing can be taken out of 2,600.
10:39No one can just go and cherry pick.
10:41That's it.
10:42We close the books.
10:43And you spoke to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky on the phone.
10:47Is this what he communicated to you, that it's better to have these sanctions locked in for 36 months
10:52or risk derailing it all?
10:56No, no, we coordinated the information through also the Prime Minister of Ukraine and Zelensky
11:04that in the interests, and he has talks in New York now, in UN,
11:10and there's a discussion with Macron himself as well as Mr. Trump and Wanderlion.
11:15These all meetings take place.
11:16And it's important that we support Ukraine to the most, their position.
11:21But we all understood it's not worth risking for these two individuals, the whole 2,600.
11:26So it's a better position that there is no country which can go and now in six months again
11:33have anyone taken out.
11:35So 36 months, even if there's peace talks, even if there's anything changing, will remain.
11:41What do you think this saga in Brussels regarding the sanctions, what message does that send
11:46Russia regarding peace?
11:49I don't consider myself that this is something to impact the peace talks.
11:57No, this is something, this is not a good message, generally not.
12:02This, I'm worried here about the playbook which it leaves.
12:08I don't think this is a very good example because that gives a message,
12:13oh, hey, we arrest some politicians somewhere and then we can ask for a sanctions package.
12:20You know, this is not a good playbook.
12:23And that's exactly why we freeze.
12:24It's 36 months.
12:25That's it.
12:26No discussion.
12:27You've also joined us on Euronews before.
12:30We've previously spoken about the Baltic security situation.
12:33But what is your assessment today?
12:35Has it changed?
12:36Do you think Russia could mount a more aggressive threat when it comes to the Baltics
12:41and in particular Latvia?
12:43Yes, we've had definitely our security meetings over here.
12:47At the moment, there is no direct information.
12:51We've seen also the Belarusian exercises, military exercises.
12:56They were lacking the Russian counterpart there.
12:59So they don't have the man force at the moment.
13:02But things can change.
13:07All right.
13:08Angela Skucin speaking to the Latvian minister, prime minister, of course.
13:12Now, the U.S., Denmark and Greenland have signed a deal aimed at strengthening Arctic security.
13:19The deal also ends over a year of tensions between the U.S. and its Nordic allies, with U.S.
13:25President Donald Trump after the president threatened to take the world's largest island,
13:30which is also a semi-autonomous territory of Denmark.
13:33Our NATO correspondent, Shona Murray, joins me now.
13:37Good morning, Shona.
13:39So first question, what's in the deal?
13:41Well, I think the point that you made at the start there is very important,
13:44because if this works out, it does end a highly corrosive and unprecedented moment at NATO,
13:49where one ally, the United States, with the one with the biggest army,
13:53was going to take a territory of another ally.
13:56And so really, if this is resolved, then everyone's for the better in terms of the alliance.
14:01Now, what it does is it really builds on an already existing pact between the U.S.
14:06and Denmark from 1951, from the Cold War era,
14:09which gave the United States considerable access to Greenland for fear of the Soviet Union.
14:13Now, the idea is that the next threat comes from Russia and China.
14:17So just let's take a look at how both sides are interpreting the deal.
14:20Metta Fredriksson, the Danish prime minister here.
14:2775 years ago, we entered into an agreement about the defense of Greenland.
14:32Today, we are signing an even bigger and better agreement, a deal that can last forever.
14:40This deal is good for the United States.
14:43It's good for Greenland, for Denmark, for the NATO alliance, and therefore also good for Europe.
14:51And then we look at the tweet from Katie Miller, who's the wife of Stephen Miller.
14:54We know the very highly influential deputy chief of staff in Trump's administration.
14:59She said this, which is effectively what Donald Trump is saying,
15:03which is that the United States has full control over Greenland now.
15:06Now, it does, when you look at the deal, have a lot to say about Danish sovereignty and Greenlandic sovereignty.
15:12But at the same time, there is quite a considerable,
15:15almost untrammeled access for the United States within the territory.
15:18And if you look at one line here, it says the United States aircraft may fly over
15:22and land in any territory in Greenland, including territorial waters.
15:26The United States public vessels may have undersea access to move and movement within the waters without restriction.
15:32So there is also within it a veto for the United States to not allow countries that are not in
15:39NATO
15:39or the European Union to have commercial interest there as well.
15:43So I think the devil is in the detail, but there is a bit of constructive ambiguity there.
15:47What I want to know now, Shona, is, is this the end of this matter?
15:52This is a really interesting question, because I think if it's put to the test, it may not be.
15:57But for now, I think there's at least a sigh of relief that this confrontation is over.
16:02Well, what a story.
16:03I hope you're going to keep covering this for us.
16:06Our NATO correspondent, Shona Murray.
16:08Morocco goes to the polls today in legislative elections that come at a critical moment for the country.
16:15The economy is growing and Morocco is investing heavily in infrastructure.
16:19But many young Moroccans remain frustrated by unemployment, public services,
16:25and the political system they often feel disconnected from.
16:29So what is really at stake in this election?
16:31And can it restore trust in politics?
16:34To discuss this, I'm now joined by Aboubakar Jamai, a Moroccan writer and dean of the Dona Dill Manning School
16:41of Global Affairs
16:42at the American College of the Mediterranean in Exxon, Provence.
16:46Good morning. Good to have you.
16:48Good morning. Thank you for having me.
16:50So some critics argue that Moroccan elections can change governments
16:55without fundamentally changing where power lies, a.k.a. the monarchy.
17:00Is that a fair description of the system?
17:05Absolutely. Suffice to read the Moroccan constitution and to look at the recent history of Morocco
17:10to see that when it comes to the biggest issues,
17:13the decision-making process is with the royal cabinet and not with the parliament.
17:18The economy in Morocco has grown, infrastructure has expanded,
17:24and Morocco is preparing for the 2030 World Cup.
17:26Yet many young people feel left behind.
17:29Why has economic growth not translated into enough jobs?
17:35Because, first of all, these economic growth numbers need to be put into perspective.
17:39So when we talk about growth in Morocco and the last years we had an average growth of 4%,
17:44it might seem impressive from a Western country's perspective.
17:48But from an immersion market perspective, this is not impressive at all,
17:52because Morocco needs at least 6% to 7% growth to absorb only the newcomers to the job market
17:57that long to absorb those who were already unemployed.
18:00The second problem with the Moroccan system is that it's kind of a trickle-down system,
18:05which is not really trickling down resources to the bottom of the pyramid.
18:10So you see this very shiny project, but they do not translate into money in people's pockets
18:18And finally, yesterday, EPP leader Manfred Weber called on Morocco to take back
18:24all irregular migrants who entered the Spanish enclave Ceuta,
18:28warning there would be consequences if Rabat wouldn't act.
18:32Now, what do the elections mean for Morocco's relations with the EU?
18:37I don't think much.
18:39The function of a parliament in a hybrid or authoritarian regime is a shock absorber.
18:44So it means that really the equation for the regime is to give a little bit of credibility,
18:48because to be a shock absorber, you need to absorb the shock,
18:51so you need a little bit of credibility,
18:53without having really any political decision-making power.
18:57And the real issue here, which is really a thorny one,
19:00is that Morocco will continue producing you discontent.
19:04It's in the numbers. It's inevitable, given the demographic evolution of the country
19:07and the failure of the political-economic system to produce jobs.
19:11And hence, this migration pressure actually are here to stay with us.
19:16So something creative needs to be found between the EU and Morocco to solve that problem.
19:20All right. Aboubakar Jemai on the elections in Morocco.
19:23Thank you for your insights.
19:25That does it for us today.
19:27Stay tuned to Euronews throughout the day.
19:30Thank you for watching.
19:31I'm Stefan Grobe. See you tomorrow.
