00:00The EU will use the G20 summit to condemn Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine,
00:05regardless of whether Putin accepts the American invitation to advance.
00:10The Danish Defense Intelligence Service said that the risk of Russian military action against NATO countries was growing,
00:16and an invasion was highly unlikely, but possible.
00:20European Commissioner for Defense and Space, Andrius Kubilius,
00:24told Euronews that US tech firm Palantir Technologies is a great company.
00:31The Danish Defense Intelligence Service said on Thursday that the risk of Russian military action against NATO countries was growing,
00:40and an outright invasion was highly unlikely, but possible.
01:05In its assessment, the agency said that Russia would likely carry out more so-called hybrid attacks against targets in
01:13the West.
01:14It noted that in the past, such attacks had mainly been aimed at creating fear and weakening public support for
01:21aid to Ukraine.
01:22But they had now started to include actions meant to stop support from reaching Ukraine,
01:28such as sabotage against defense companies or railway transport carrying military equipment, the agency said.
01:35The Danish agency said it thought Russia would intensify such attacks.
01:43A barrage of Russian drone and missile strikes pummeled Ukraine on Thursday,
01:47killing six agricultural workers in the east alongside two others in Kiev in the latest in an intensifying exchange of
01:54attacks.
01:55At least two people were killed across the Kiev capital region, according to Prime Minister Sergei Koretsky.
02:01In the Kharkiv region, the regional prosecutor's office published images showing the inside of a destroyed agricultural produce warehouse.
02:10Officials added that the facility in the Choguiv district, southeast of Kharkiv, was hit as employees were sorting vegetables.
02:18The strikes, which triggered air raid sirens and sent locals rushing underground for shelter,
02:23came after both Kiev and Moscow were at the United Nations and vowed no let-up in their long-range
02:28attacks.
02:29Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelensky, who was in New York seeking more Western support for stronger sanctions against the Kremlin,
02:37accused Russia of deliberately targeting civilian infrastructure.
02:40The increase in attacks, particularly on Kiev, has prompted residents to consider contingency plans for the winter
02:47if Russian strikes once again knock out the energy system vital for heating and sub-zero temperatures.
02:58The European Union will use the upcoming G20 summit in Miami to condemn Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine,
03:05regardless of whether Russian President Vladimir Putin accepts the American invitation to attend the high-profile gathering.
03:11Since 2022, the EU has consistently and forcefully used G20 meetings to condemn Russia's full-scale invasion and to call
03:22for it to end.
03:24What I can say today is that this approach, from the European Union perspective,
03:29will continue, irrespective of the participants at any G20 meeting.
03:33U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio has confirmed on Wednesday that his country,
03:39which holds the rotating G20 presidency, has formally invited Putin to attend the summit in Miami.
03:45If you only meet with people that you agree with, then, you know, these are very nice meetings, but nothing
03:49happens.
03:50In order to solve problems, you have to meet with people that you disagree with,
03:53or the people that you might have some issues with.
03:55So we've invited President Putin to the G20.
03:58In response, the Kremlin said it was grateful and appreciative, and would study the invitation.
04:04Putin has skipped G20 summits since the start of Russia's war in Ukraine.
04:08His last in-person attendance was in Osaka in 2019.
04:15U.S. President Donald Trump hailed the truly great friendship he has developed with Xi Jinping
04:20as the Chinese president began his state visit to the United States on Thursday.
04:25Trump outlined that discussions will vary in topics, chief among them, the AI race both countries are deeply competing in.
04:33During this visit, we will also discuss pressing issues concerning security, technology, and superintelligence, SI.
04:42The decisions we make in these areas today can promote peace and prosperity for decades and decades to come.
04:52President Xi thanked Trump for the invitation and stressed that he's ready to work with Washington
04:57to steer their relationship on a steady course.
05:20Despite the touted friendship with Xi, the pair have been embroiled
05:23in a fair share of conflict since Trump returned to the White House last year.
05:27Trump's reciprocal tariff policy and sanctions on nations purchasing Russian energy has massively targeted Beijing,
05:34causing turbulence between the two superpowers and ripples felt across the entire planet.
05:42The Trump administration has acknowledged that eight U.S. service members aboard the USS Abraham Lincoln aircraft carrier
05:49attempted to commit suicide while on deployment in the Middle East.
05:54The information emerged in a letter by acting Navy Secretary Hong Kao,
05:58the service's top civilian official,
06:00sent in response to questions from Democratic Senator Kirsten Gillibrand about conditions on the vessel.
06:07Reports of deteriorating living conditions and poor mental health
06:10made headlines in the U.S. in recent months,
06:13sparking fierce criticism of U.S. President Donald Trump's war on Iran.
06:18The aircraft carrier had been at sea since last November,
06:21after sailing off from California to the South China Sea,
06:25before being rerouted to the Middle East in late February ahead of U.S.-Israeli attacks on Tehran.
06:31Kao said there have been no suicides on board during the deployment,
06:35specifying that some who attempted were rescued,
06:38while others were prevented by their colleagues.
06:40The ship left the Middle East in mid-August
06:43and is en route to its San Diego base,
06:45with the deployment currently standing at a record-setting 10 months.
06:53An OpenAI agent has hacked an Australian Health Department website
06:58in an obviously unacceptable security breach.
07:01Prime Minister Anthony Albanese has said Thursday,
07:05The artificial intelligence agent infiltrated Australia's Medicare statistics reporting portal
07:11on the 18th of July.
07:13Yet Albanese said OpenAI informed Australia about the breach
07:17only on the 10th of September,
07:19in an email sent to a government's generic address.
07:22Today I spoke with the CEO of OpenAI, Sam Altman,
07:27to express Australia's extreme concern about this incident.
07:31And I also expressed my disappointment that it took the company way too long
07:36to inform the government of what had occurred
07:39and the nature of the way that that notification occurred as well was unacceptable.
07:47OpenAI said in a statement that it discovered during an activity review
07:52its models took actions it did not intend.
07:55An investigation is underway to determine whether OpenAI could be charged
07:59and a task force was launched to assess the effectiveness
08:03of Australia's response to AI-related cyber incidents.
08:06No personal information was believed to have been accessed at this stage.
08:15The European Commissioner for Defence and Space, Andreas Kubilius,
08:19told Uranus that Palantir Technologies is a great company
08:23on the sidelines of the second EU Access to Space Summit in Brussels.
08:26Several human rights organizations and European governments
08:30have criticized the U.S. tech company for its use in military operations,
08:35mass surveillance and immigration enforcement.
08:38Kubilius said AI is now a battlefield essential.
08:41Palantir is a great company,
08:45and the developments with AI for intelligence,
08:49for managing the data,
08:51are very crucial for modern warfare doctrines.
08:54and we can see, for example,
08:59Ukrainian development with their own delta system
09:03for data management,
09:06battlefield data management.
09:09The Commissioner added,
09:10although Europeans shall develop their own military capabilities,
09:14for the time being,
09:15it is useful to use services from other companies.
09:18Kubilius' comments come after
09:19the President of Lithuania, Gitanas Noseda,
09:22and President of Poland, Karol Navrotsky,
09:25met with CEO of Palantir, Alex Karp,
09:27on the sidelines of the United Nations General Assembly in New York.
09:36Europe's struggle to build on successful national models across borders
09:40could be costing at least 120 billion euros a year in missed investment.
09:46That is the estimate of Italian think tank the European House Ambrosetti
09:50in a study produced with Amazon.
09:53The study analyzes successful national examples across a wide range of sectors,
09:58from railway networks to AI,
10:01from energy to smart regulation,
10:03and argues that Europe does not need to imitate foreign models,
10:07but rather integrate leading examples at the European level.
10:10The 120 billion euros estimate, however,
10:14could be even higher as it refers only to additional direct investment.
10:18It does not count any wider economic benefits, the report says.
10:26Fall has begun, but summer refuses to let go,
10:29with much of Portugal still experiencing unseasonably hot weather
10:33and thermometers reaching 40 degrees Celsius in some places.
10:37In downtown Lisbon,
10:39tourists were surprised on the first day of fall
10:41by temperatures of 36 degrees Celsius.
10:44Expecting cooler weather in September,
10:45they had packed clothes suitable for milder weather in their suitcases.
10:50I actually brought a jacket,
10:51because I thought it would be cooler,
10:53and it would be similar to the Canadian fall and autumn weather,
10:58like 21, 23.
10:59I told my friend the same thing, pack a jacket.
11:02To avoid sun exposure,
11:03during the hottest hours of the day,
11:05there are a few tricks that help these tourists.
11:09It is dry.
11:11Obviously, it's nice enough here in the shade,
11:12in the shops and stuff,
11:13but when you're walking out in the sun,
11:15it can get quite hot, yeah.
11:16Shops, shade, water, yeah,
11:18everything you can really,
11:19but it's still nice.
11:21The Portuguese Meteorological Service
11:23has issued a heat advisory
11:25for some regions of the country,
11:27and local authorities have also warned
11:28of a high risk of wildfires in some inland regions.
11:32Temperatures are expected to drop slightly,
11:34starting next week.
