00:14Guten Morgen, es ist Wednesday, November 11th, Armistice Day.
00:19Du bist auf Euronews und das ist Europe Today.
00:23Unsere Top Story.
00:24Ukraine and Russia have privately shown some flexibility over disputed territory.
00:30That's according to U.S. media reports, citing a senior American official
00:35as a new round of talks aimed at ending the war began in Abu Dhabi yesterday.
00:40The U.S. official cautioned that territorial disputes could not be resolved
00:44without agreement on post-war security arrangements.
00:47The negotiations opened with a meeting between Ukrainian, American and European representatives
00:52ahead of the first trilateral talks involving Kyiv, Moscow and Washington since February.
00:59Train drivers in Spain went on strike yesterday to demand more investment in maintenance and safety
01:05following Spain's second fatal rail crash this year.
01:08About half of long, medium and distance services in the country were cancelled
01:13as well as 90% of services in Madrid's commuter network.
01:17The situation will likely get worse today as workers staged the country's first general strike in 14 years.
01:25Minimum service levels have been set for transport, schools and health care.
01:30Among other things, unions want higher wages and limits on rents.
01:35And Prince Harry and Meghan, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex,
01:40backed the European Union's campaign to protect children from online harassment.
01:44Speaking at the European Parliament in Brussels, Prince Harry accused social media companies
01:49of failing to make their platforms safer,
01:52leaving children exposed to online harassment and bullying,
01:56sometimes with fatal consequences.
01:58He also praised the proposed EU Kids Act,
02:01which aims to strengthen protections for children online.
02:05Welcome to the program. I'm Stefan Gromert.
02:09Ukrainian, Russian and U.S. negotiators are set to resume peace talks in Abu Dhabi
02:14for a second day, after Kyiv and Washington described yesterday's discussions as
02:19constructive and productive.
02:21The first round lasted around four hours,
02:24with discussions focusing on humanitarian issues,
02:27including a possible large-scale prisoner exchange
02:31and the return of Ukrainian civilians and children held by Russia.
02:35Security guarantees for Ukraine were also on the agenda.
02:39Our correspondent, Toby Gregory, who is in the United Arab Emirates,
02:44just sent us this update minutes ago.
02:47Here in the UAE, the first thing to say is that the mood from Washington is one of cautious optimism.
02:53Secretary of State Marco Rubio described the first day of talks as very productive,
02:58but one that much work remains and a settlement is not imminent.
03:02On whether there was any sign of progress,
03:04Gerald Kushner, who is leading the delegation here in the UAE,
03:07alongside Steve Witkoff,
03:09said there were some good ideas on how to bridge the differences between Ukraine and Russia.
03:15Looking at the bigger picture,
03:17Kushner said that Washington wants to develop a new framework for lasting peace.
03:22But from all the positive language we're hearing,
03:25significant disagreements still remain,
03:27particularly over territory and security arrangements.
03:30So what are we watching for on this second day here in the UAE?
03:34Well, the key question is whether Washington's efforts can turn into tangible progress at the table.
03:40There are reports that Witkoff and Kushner could well travel to Moscow and Kiev,
03:45although neither of those visits have been officially confirmed
03:48and there's certainly no itinerary that has been announced.
03:54Toby Gregory in the UAE, thank you very much.
03:57Let's digest everything now with Sasha Vakulina, our Ukraine correspondent.
04:02Good morning, Sasha.
04:03So we've just heard about Washington's assessment of the first day of talks.
04:08What have Kiev and Moscow said about the negotiations?
04:11And are there any signs that their positions are moving closer?
04:15Well, just like Washington,
04:17Kiev tried to put out a very positive assessment there.
04:20We've heard from the negotiators and the delegation that indeed,
04:22they think that the first day went well.
04:26This was also the statement coming from Ukraine's president, Volodymyr Zelenskyy.
04:30After he had a briefing with his delegation in Abu Dhabi,
04:33he described the trilateral talks as, quote,
04:35constructive and quite substantive.
04:37Now, he also said they spoke in detail about the substance of security guarantees for Ukraine
04:42and the foundations for ensuring these guarantees function over the long term.
04:47Real tools are needed to block any recurrence of the war.
04:50The need for de-escalation steps was also touched upon.
04:54Now, there's a stark contrast with any sort of assessment coming from Moscow.
04:58Russia's foreign minister, Sergei Lavrov,
05:00was not at all this sort of positive and optimistic about the negotiations.
05:05In fact, he once again rejected the idea of any form or shape of a ceasefire, Stefan.
05:10That's, of course, what Ukraine is trying to achieve.
05:12And he accused the European partners of pushing for the ceasefire with the hidden agenda.
05:18Now, this is what Lavrov had to say about the EU representatives.
05:23Everything we're hearing now from Brussels and other EU capitals
05:25boils down to a demand for an immediate ceasefire.
05:28It is the same old logic.
05:29They need to buy time to somehow recoup the military losses they have sustained.
05:34Now, Russia itself took a few years to regroup
05:37between the first invasion of Ukraine in 2014 and then the full-scale war in 2022.
05:41So, Sasha, Zelensky also referred to further consultations with his European partners.
05:46But as we know, Europe doesn't have a seat at the table.
05:50Now, what role do they play in the diplomatic process and might they change?
05:56I think what we are seeing now is Europe trying to find its way
06:01and trying to find that seat at the table, not for today,
06:05but for the negotiations in the future.
06:08Now, Kiev insists that it wants to have European partners at the table.
06:11Washington warmed up to the idea, also saying that, yes, indeed,
06:14we've heard from Mark Rubio, who indicated that, yes,
06:17would want European representatives to participate directly,
06:21but also eventually, yet again, Russia is very much against it.
06:25Now, Moscow said that they do not want to have the Europeans at the table.
06:28Another assessment and another quote coming from Sergei Lavrov saying,
06:33they flew to Abu Dhabi, he said, referring to the European representatives.
06:37Let them sit there in the hotel.
06:40Now, that says a lot about whether or not Kremlin is actually welcoming
06:44the European representatives at the talks.
06:46I hope the hotel is quite comfortable.
06:49Sasha Vakulina, as ever, thank you very much.
06:52NATO is represented at the talks in Abu Dhabi by senior officials,
06:56including the Alliance's top military general, Alexis Grinkovic.
07:00Our NATO correspondent, Shona Murray, caught up with Deputy Supreme Allied Commander
07:05John Stringer at NATO headquarters.
07:07She started by asking him whether he had any optimism of a genuine breakthrough ahead.
07:13Take a listen.
07:14So, we all know the Russian demands have been maximalist from the start.
07:22I hope, but I say hope, that they enter into negotiations in a genuine spirit of seeking resolution here
07:32and that it's not just, frankly, a restatement of demands that, as I said, go back to 2022.
07:39So, let's see how serious Russia is here.
07:42And in terms of territory, it is absolutely one for the Ukrainians.
07:48As I said, sovereign nation invaded in 2022, having had Crimea annexed in 2014.
07:56So, Ukrainian interests here have to be paramount.
07:59In relation to the interceptor issue, President Zelensky, he said they're waiting over a month
08:05for delivery of patriots to Ukraine.
08:08He said that all that's required is a signature from the U.S. Secretary of Defense, Pete Hegseff.
08:14Patriots, understandably, are in high demand globally.
08:18Hence, my point on increasing the overall size of the industrial base.
08:22And a number of discussions have been held and are ongoing with a number of nations about how we might
08:29increase the flow of patriot interceptors to Ukraine.
08:34But they're obviously sensitive discussions and I can't really talk about them in public.
08:39Obviously, Russia's not doing well five years into a supposedly five-day attack on the whole of Ukraine.
08:45Partly, though, would you agree that Ukrainians have been able to strike into Russian territory, in particular at the diesel
08:52infrastructure?
08:53But would you agree that this needs to continue in order to stop the access that Russia has to money
08:59through its oil production and exportation?
09:02So, quite rightly, the Ukrainians are running their campaign.
09:07But you're absolutely right in the sense that what they have done against Russian oil and gas has had a
09:15demonstrable impact on the Russian economy.
09:19It is economic warfare in 2026 and it is a key element.
09:26Obviously, you need to just look at it from outside, a key element in the Ukrainian campaign.
09:32So, it's hurting Russia.
09:33I will leave it to the Ukrainians as to how they prosecute that campaign in the future.
09:40But it does underline my point.
09:43This is hurting Putin.
09:44He thought he was going to roll in, establish an e-security architecture in Europe that started in Ukraine in
09:52early 22.
09:53And he's been sorely disabused on that one.
09:56And what Ukraine has been able to do through imagination, innovation and will is quite incredible.
10:03And we should salute it.
10:09The Black Sea is becoming an increasingly dangerous front line in Russia's war against Ukraine.
10:18Commercial ships are being struck, seafarers are missing and NATO's eastern flank is feeling the fallout.
10:24Now, Brussels is stepping in with 70 million euros in funding.
10:29But is that enough to turn the tide?
10:31Now joined by our defence correspondent Angela Scudgens, who has doggedly followed these deadly maritime events.
10:39Good morning, Angela.
10:40Good morning, Stefan.
10:41So, how does the European Union plan to step in and offer support?
10:46So, it's predominantly through cash, as you rightly mentioned.
10:50European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen visited Romania and Bulgaria on Monday and Tuesday, where she made this announcement.
10:58The Black Sea, traditionally, is a key maritime corridor used for the transport of goods, as well as energy.
11:05Military mobility is very important here, but now it continues to feel the spillover effects of Russia's full-scale invasion
11:12of Ukraine.
11:14Now, Brussels will come to the aid of both of these EU member states through funding.
11:1810 million euros will be given individually and separately to Sofia and Bucharest for search and rescue operations,
11:25while 50 million euros will be given to the development and the fast tracking of the building of the Black
11:32Sea Maritime Security Hub.
11:33This will be split between Constanza and Varna, maritime ports in both countries.
11:39And the thrust of this centre, when it's operational, is to track and detect seaborne threats, such as cable carts
11:46and, hopefully, drones.
11:47And, of course, the question is, will that be enough to plug an increasingly hostile security situation in that region?
11:54Yeah, so that's the bigger question, whether 70 million euros will be enough.
11:58But just to highlight the scale of the situation here, at least nine commercial vessels have been struck, damaged, capsized
12:05or sunk in the Black Sea near Romania and Bulgaria between the 5th and 28th of October.
12:11Leaders from both nations were recently in Brussels, where they met NATO Secretary-General Mark Rutter, to talk about support.
12:17I spoke with the Romanian president, Nicosio Dhan, about how perilous the situation is there.
12:23Let's take a listen to his response.
12:25It started air drones on our territory.
12:28It started something like one year and a half ago.
12:33We are not prepared for that.
12:35We ask inside the NATO for the support of our allies.
12:39We receive some support.
12:41Also, we will have a permanent solution after buying the capabilities that we already ordered during a safe program.
12:51So now, at the Black Sea, we are in the same situation.
12:55When will the Black Sea be safe?
12:58Hopefully, when the war will stop.
13:04All right, Angela Skugins, thank you for your reporting.
13:09Europe is increasingly finding itself on the front line of a shadow war.
13:13From cyberattacks targeting supermarket refrigeration systems to suspicious incidents disrupting commercial aviation,
13:21a growing number of hybrid threats are exposing the vulnerabilities of critical infrastructure across the continent.
13:27Russia and other hostile actors are suspected of exploiting these weaknesses to sow disruption, fear and mistrust.
13:36Is Europe doing enough to defend itself?
13:38For more on this, I'm now joined by Rio Terras, an Estonian member of the European Parliament from the European
13:44People's Party,
13:44where he serves on the committees for foreign affairs and security and defense.
13:49Good morning and welcome to the program.
13:54Good morning.
13:54So, why are seemingly mundane targets, such as supermarkets, airports and transport networks,
14:02becoming increasingly attractive to hostile actors?
14:09I would say that these targets are different.
14:12There are attacks against the supermarkets, or attacks against the infrastructure,
14:18which actually is not critical or vital services,
14:23because the critical and vital services like the airports, etc.,
14:28need to be disconnected from the Internet.
14:31And we have seen the attacks against the supermarkets,
14:34which, in my opinion, is just not enough finances from the side of the owner of the shops,
14:42and not enough upgrades to the computer systems.
14:48I think that can be avoided, and that is actually something which needs to be trained and regularly looked at.
14:57The other thing is the critical infrastructure and vital services,
15:01and there, the responsibility of the states is very important.
15:05And also, the European Union has already decided about the Network and Information Security Act.
15:16Let me ask you this.
15:18Russia is the usual suspect when it comes to hybrid operations across Europe.
15:23But France has now accused Iran's Revolutionary Guard of orchestrating the supermarket cyberattacks.
15:29Do you believe Moscow and Tehran are coordinating their efforts to put pressure on Europe?
15:36I don't know.
15:38It is sure that they will, using both sides, but whether they coordinate, I am not that sure about it.
15:47But to create a cause before the elections in France, after the riots on the streets,
15:52it just fits to the picture, and the chaos and the stability and the feeling in the population
16:00that government does not do enough, that is what they are aiming for.
16:04And that is very easy to do, especially in the times where we have Internet of Things,
16:10which normally is almost not protected properly.
16:13You can create very easily chaos without any big restrictions, I think.
16:19And we need to really attribute these attacks to the state actors, like the French did to Iran,
16:28and then use our package of tools, sanctions, or diplomacy to deal with the things.
16:36And then the important thing is that the European Union needs to use its strength.
16:40All right.
16:41Rio Terras, MEP from Estonia, thank you very much for your time this morning.
16:45The European Parliament hosted two special guests yesterday, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex,
16:51Harry and Meghan, as part of a campaign to protect children from online harassment.
16:57They unveiled the Lost Screen Memorial, first launched in New York last year,
17:02which features photographs of young people whose deaths have been linked to online harms.
17:07Following the royal couple through Brussels was our correspondent, Vincenzo Genovese.
17:12Good morning, Vincenzo.
17:13Good morning, Stefan.
17:14So, you've covered Prince Harry's address at the European Parliament.
17:19How was it?
17:20It was powerful.
17:21It was emotional.
17:22He lashed out at social media companies for failing to protect children from online harassment and bullying,
17:30which has led, in some cases, to suicides in Europe and elsewhere.
17:35In particular, he called for tough regulation of social media and to disallow this short-form addictive scrolling,
17:45which he believes is particularly harmful to young people.
17:49Let's take a listen to Harry.
17:51The majority of these companies, they don't let their children on social media because they know the dangers.
18:01So, why would you create something that you know is going to harm someone else's child?
18:05You know, these companies have caused so much harm.
18:09There has to be accountability.
18:13Now, Vincenzo, you also followed him through the corridors, if I may say.
18:17And he did get quite a warm welcome, didn't he?
18:21Yes, definitely.
18:22When he was moving from one meeting to another, he walked past crowds of parliamentary assistants,
18:30officials from the parliament, trying to get a picture or a video of him.
18:35Some people even shouted his name.
18:37I would say he was a bit of a rock star in the parliament yesterday.
18:42And as a rock star, he didn't answer any questions from reporters, including mine.
18:47That is too bad.
18:49But one question that everybody wants to know about is what happened to Meghan.
18:54We haven't seen her much, right?
18:56Yeah, indeed.
18:56Indeed.
18:57She didn't attend any meetings with MEPs beyond the official unveiling of the lost screen memorial.
19:05She was set to deliver a speech, indeed.
19:08But reportedly, she pulled out because of the emotional strain of recent days
19:13after her father was arrested in the U.S. on suspicion of possessing child sexual abuse material.
19:21That is certainly not ideal.
19:23Vincenzo Genovese, our royal correspondent, thank you very much.
19:27And that does it for us today.
19:29If you want to see me again tonight, tune in to our debate show, The Ring, from the European Parliament,
19:34in a new format for its second season.
19:37That's tonight at 9.10 p.m. CET.
19:41As for now, thank you for watching.
19:42I'm Stefan Grobe.
19:44Take care and see you soon.
