[00:00:07] Hello everyone, happy to meet you again in the violates the First Amendment of rest of the night edition, here is
[00:00:10] the main news of this Sunday. On the front page,
[00:00:14] the pro-Iranian Houthi rebels
[00:00:16] humanitarian aid, crisis are becoming increasingly threatening in Yemen. The
[00:00:18] response, equality. You are Belgian, Saudi capital is now clearly targeted, and
[00:00:21] oil installations near Riyadh airport appear to have been hit. The
[00:00:24] kingdom says for the first time it has intercepted a ballistic
[00:00:28] missile fired at the capital. Is this
[00:00:31] the end of the diplomatic crisis over Greenland? After
[00:00:35] wanting to annex it, Donald Trump welcomed finding an
[00:00:39] agreement that guarantees permanent control by Washington over the
[00:00:42] island's security. Denmark and Greenland are pleased
[00:00:46] that their sovereignty is respected. We will see
[00:00:49] the reactions on site, and he
[00:00:52] too came to talk about sovereignty more than 4300
[00:00:56] km from France, Emmanuel Macron arrived in Saint-Pierre and Miquelon, a
[00:01:00] French territory. The head of state hastened to say that
[00:01:03] this Sunday he will receive Mccarni, the
[00:01:06] Canadian Prime Minister. We will see the stakes in this news report.
[00:01:23] The Saudi kingdom is increasingly under pressure. Riyadh recognizes
[00:01:26] that a ballistic missile was fired by the Houthis of Yemen
[00:01:30] at dawn on the capital, but assures that it was
[00:01:33] intercepted. Other attacks on Saudi soil were also
[00:01:37] thwarted, say authorities, but the
[00:01:40] images, however, of oil installations near the airport
[00:01:44] seem to have been hit. Tibo
[00:01:46] Franceske:
[00:01:49] A thick column of black smoke rises above Riyadh's
[00:01:52] main airport on Saturday morning. Not far
[00:01:55] from there, an oil depot is hit after a night
[00:01:59] of alert in the Saudi capital. The
[00:02:01] coalition led by Saudi Arabia against the Houthis in Yemen accuses
[00:02:05] the latter of being behind the attack. The Houthis
[00:02:08] confirm it. This is the first time since the resumption of fighting in July that Riyadh has been
[00:02:12] hit.
[00:02:15] These two large-scale military operations were carried out using
[00:02:19] a large number of ballistic missiles and drones. The first
[00:02:22] targeted the Saudi capital
[00:02:24] week on the sidelines of Riyadh and the second targeted Aramco in Yanbu.
[00:02:28] In Yemen, fighting between the Iranian-backed Houthi rebels and Riyadh-backed
[00:02:32] government forces is intensifying.
[00:02:35] On Thursday, the Yemeni army released images of strikes it
[00:02:38] carried out, but this is not enough to stop the advance of the armed
[00:02:42] rebel group. To the east, the Houthis are advancing in the oil-rich
[00:02:45] region of Marib, an important source of revenue for the Yemeni
[00:02:49] government. To the west, they have taken control of
[00:02:52] the Red Sea coast and especially the Strait of
[00:02:55] Bab el-Mandeb, a strategic passage for global
[00:02:58] trade and especially for oil.
[00:03:04] with massive information
[00:03:10] peace. During the State of the
[00:03:30] This is an unprecedented attack against freedom of the press in the United States,
[00:03:34] yet guaranteed by the Constitution. Donald Trump
[00:03:37] carried out his threats. Journalists
[00:03:40] from CNN and MS Now and the Politico
[00:03:43] website were prevented this Saturday from entering the White
[00:03:47] House. Their badges were deactivated. Listen to the
[00:03:51] details on site from Sonia Dridi, our accredited correspondent at the
[00:03:54] White House. It's astonishment and
[00:03:58] shock because this morning, upon arriving, these
[00:04:01] journalists were simply denied access
[00:04:05] to the White House and their badges were
[00:04:08] confiscated. You can see this green tent behind me. Usually, it's from here
[00:04:12] that CNN journalists
[00:04:15] EU civil protection mechanism particularly work. Well, uh, it's a very
[00:04:17] strange atmosphere because these journalists were denied access. Initially, it
[00:04:21] wasn't very clear when Donald Trump made his announcement yesterday whether he was
[00:04:24] simply banning them from the Oval
[00:04:27] Office or from the White House grounds, and so... this morning, the
[00:04:31] journalists got the answer. You see, I'm at the White
[00:04:34] House. There are few people here today, and the
[00:04:38] White House Correspondents' Association issued a
[00:04:41] statement in which it defended
[00:04:44] its colleagues, saying that it is also an affront to
[00:04:48] the American public who deserve to have
[00:04:51] independent information. In a statement,
[00:04:54] CNN denounced an illegal attack against
[00:04:58] freedom of the press, and
[00:05:00] Politico promised to defend its right, and
[00:05:04] this decision is condemned by the White House Correspondents' Association
[00:05:07] which urges in
[00:05:10] the major annual State of the a statement the American President to immediately restore journalists'
[00:05:14] access, because it the
[00:05:18] Constitution.
[00:05:20] For Donald Trump, it's a dream come true, he wrote on his social
[00:05:23] network. The security agreement found on Greenland was also
[00:05:27] welcomed by the Greenlandic and Danish authorities. They
[00:05:31] are pleased that their sovereignty is respected. After wanting to
[00:05:35] buy and annex this autonomous Danish territory, the American
[00:05:38] president obtains permanent control for Washington over
[00:05:42] the island's security, but also keeps
[00:05:45] Russia and China away. The outlines are still vague,
[00:05:49] but what do the local residents think already? We'll see that with
[00:05:52] Olivier Feessol. After months of threats, the
[00:05:56] scenario of Greenland's annexation by the United States seems
[00:05:59] now ruled out. In the streets of Nuuk, the capital of the autonomous
[00:06:03] Danish territory, there is hesitation between relief and
[00:06:06] caution. I don't see anything problematic in an
[00:06:09] agreement of this kind. There's already the base.
[00:06:22] We'll see, it also depends on how the agreement is formulated. We hope
[00:06:26] that the leaders have concluded a good agreement, because our
[00:06:29] country must be protected both in the air and at
[00:06:32] sea.
[00:06:37] This Friday, Donald Trump announced that he had obtained permanent
[00:06:41] control over the security of this territory, which is as
[00:06:45] immense as it is strategic. The approach aims in particular to prevent
[00:06:48] Russia and China from setting up bases there.
[00:06:52] Washington, for its part, intends to open new ones and
[00:06:55] station more troops there. The government of the
[00:06:58] autonomous territory welcomed this agreement. On behalf of
[00:07:01] Greenland, I welcome this agreement which will benefit not only the
[00:07:05] security of all, but also the continued development of this
[00:07:08] country. The same enthusiasm from the Danish
[00:07:11] Prime Minister. According to her, the text respects both the
[00:07:14] sovereignty of the kingdom and the right of Greenlanders to
[00:07:17] self-determination, a strategic partnership around
[00:07:21] a key territory. The island could become a major passage as the
[00:07:24] melting ice opens new maritime routes. Another
[00:07:28] issue is the significant rare earth reserves in its subsoil.
[00:07:31] The agreement, which has not been made public, is to be signed next
[00:07:37] the United Nations General Assembly.
[00:07:41] An agreement welcomed by Emmanuel Macron. On his arrival in Saint-Pierre and Miquelon, the
[00:07:44] head of state, who also hastened to state that this
[00:07:48] territory of 5800 km is
[00:07:51] French. It's obvious, he said. The objective
[00:07:54] of this visit is to reaffirm French presence at the doorstep of the
[00:07:58] United States. The Canadian Prime Minister is expected there in a few
[00:08:01] hours. The issues with Nina
[00:08:03] Masson.
[00:08:07] More than 4000 km from Paris, a small piece of France
[00:08:11] placed at the doorstep of Canada, Saint-Pierre and
[00:08:14] Miquelon, the last French territory in North America, to which Emmanuel
[00:08:18] Macron wants to restore its full strategic dimension. And for
[00:08:21] good reason, this archipelago of less than 6000 inhabitants is closely
[00:08:25] scrutinized by Donald Trump, as evidenced by this
[00:08:28] fake map posted on his social network, in which the American
[00:08:31] flag covers Canada, Greenland, Mexico, the
[00:08:34] Antilles, but also Saint-Pierre and Miquelon. In this strategic
[00:08:38] region, also coveted by Russia and China, Paris
[00:08:42] is therefore tightening ranks with Ottawa. Emmanuel Macron
[00:08:45] is expected to meet this Sunday Prime Minister
[00:08:48] Mccarni, a first for a Canadian
[00:08:51] head of government. So here we are, France is present
[00:08:55] thanks to Saint-Pierre and Miquelon, through Saint-Pierre and Miquelon, here at the heart of the
[00:08:58] global stakes in this region, and
[00:09:02] this also links us with Canada, and so it will be a way
[00:09:06] to talk about the future together and consolidate our relations in
[00:09:09] many areas. On the agenda: energy, defense,
[00:09:12] critical minerals, and strategic technology,
[00:09:16] but Emmanuel Macron will also have to face internal challenges in the
[00:09:19] territory: high cost of living, remoteness, aging
[00:09:23] infrastructure, and declining population. In Miquelon, the
[00:09:26] rising waters are also forcing part of the village to move to the
[00:09:29] heights, an unprecedented relocation in France, which has become one of the
[00:09:33] symbols of adaptation to climate
[00:09:35] change.
[00:09:39] That's all for this news report. Thank you for following us. The edition
[00:09:43] returns in 20 minutes. Stay with us. See you soon.
[00:09:55] France 24 and RFI present,
[00:10:11] Hello everyone, thank you for joining us at the Strasbourg Parliament for
[00:10:14] here Europe, your program on France 24 and
[00:10:17] RFI, this very special week, since it is the week of
[00:10:23] Union address by the President of the European Commission, Ursula von der Leyen.
[00:10:27] We are pleased to welcome one of her emblematic
[00:10:30] Commissioners, Adja Labib. Hello.
[00:10:33] Hello. I remind you that you are in charge of very visible and
[00:10:36] strategic sectors, international cooperation,
[00:10:43] a former senior reporter in Afghanistan and the
[00:10:47] Middle East, a former presenter, and a former
[00:10:50] Minister of Foreign Affairs, whom we can describe as a centrist, as you position yourself neither on the right
[00:10:54] nor on the left, I understand. You were indeed present during
[00:10:58] the President's speech before the chamber. Can
[00:11:01] you elaborate on some of the key measures
[00:11:05] discussed regarding your portfolio?
[00:11:08] Allow me to quote the opening phrase
[00:11:12] where the President said it was the best
[00:11:16] of times and the worst of times, quoting Charles
[00:11:20] Dickens, an English author, which I can translate into his Shakespearean
[00:11:23] language by saying, "
[00:11:27] Never waste a good crisis, because it's
[00:11:30] an opportunity to build,
[00:11:33] to advance, and to expand one's horizons."
[00:11:36] You know, a few years ago, in 2022, we only had
[00:11:40] 200 firefighters pre-positioned in Europe in countries at
[00:11:43] risk of fire. We had a small instrument that
[00:11:47] was starting to emerge, which was our strategic reserve.
[00:11:50] Today, this summer, we had
[00:11:52] 800 firefighters
[00:11:55] positioned, ready to respond to fires in
[00:11:58] six fire-prone countries. So it was also
[00:12:02] a time of truth, it was the summer of all
[00:12:05] truths. A truth we must face
[00:12:08] today is that we are facing extreme natural
[00:12:12] events that are no longer extraordinary. It's the
[00:12:16] new normal, unfortunately, and so we will have to anticipate
[00:12:18] them. And this speech, I must
[00:12:21] say it, because it meets all our expectations
[00:12:25] and everything we are putting in place, namely a group
[00:12:28] of experts who are currently drawing lessons from this
[00:12:32] summer, another group that will
[00:12:35] produce a document on which we will
[00:12:38] build our first, our next response next summer.
[00:12:41] So, Adja Labib, as every week, we're going to look at some
[00:12:45] selected news, it's Europe in brief that Isabelle
[00:12:48] Romero
[00:12:49] offers us.
[00:12:54] A drone has disrupted the Warsaw-Kyiv train line on the
[00:12:57] Polish border, a route taken a few minutes earlier by former
[00:13:01] Prime Minister Boris Johnson and other European
[00:13:03] personalities. The next day, Lithuania was targeted by a drone
[00:13:07] and a Danish helicopter by a rocket from a Russian
[00:13:10] frigate. While Finland has decided to join the advanced nuclear
[00:13:14] deterrence group proposed by France, Jean-Noël Barrow, Minister
[00:13:18] of Foreign Affairs, has reaffirmed the determination of Europeans.
[00:13:22] Nothing can intimidate us. Nothing will
[00:13:25] make us abandon our strategy
[00:13:28] of supporting Ukraine, pressuring Russia, and
[00:13:32] preparing for
[00:13:35] Union address, Ursula von der Leyen proposed that Canada become an associate
[00:13:39] member of the EU, a rapprochement desired by both
[00:13:42] partners in the face of increasing pressure from Donald Trump. The
[00:13:45] American president called this proposal ridiculous,
[00:13:49] threatening to increase tariffs and even break off
[00:13:52] trade with the EU. Marc Carnet, Canadian
[00:13:55] Prime Minister, retorted:
[00:13:58] We do not seek power to dominate others; on the contrary, we
[00:14:02] seek resilience so that no one, no one can
[00:14:06] control our markets, question our sovereignty, and
[00:14:10] threaten our territorial integrity or minimize the freedom of our
[00:14:13] democracies and the rule of
[00:14:14] law.
[00:14:17] This agreement could concern defense, critical minerals,
[00:14:20] AI or space, but a dozen European states have not yet ratified
[00:14:24] CETA. a free trade agreement between Canada and
[00:14:27] the EU. Ursula Von Derlayen also
[00:14:30] presented a major plan for climate resilience. Referring to the forest
[00:14:34] fires that ravaged the European Union, she stressed the need to
[00:14:37] anticipate by relying on the
[00:14:40] to pool expertise and resources.
[00:14:43] Adjal Habib, let's talk
[00:14:47] precisely about what was activated this summer, namely the famous civil
[00:14:51] protection mechanism which allows solidarity between the 27 in the face of
[00:14:55] forest fires. Europe flared up
[00:14:58] all at once, all over Europe. Is that enough? So you asked for the
[00:15:01] tripling of this budget to go beyond 10 billion euros
[00:15:05] for the 2028-2034 period. A
[00:15:08] dozen frugal countries refuse a global increase in the budget requested by
[00:15:12] the European Commission, so a doubling to 2% of our
[00:15:15] GDP, our wealth of 27. Is it off
[00:15:19] to a bad start for you? Well, it's off to a bad start if we
[00:15:22] don't learn the lessons from what happened this
[00:15:26] year. We had fires all over
[00:15:28] Europe simultaneously with four heat
[00:15:32] waves that cost the lives of more or less 35,000
[00:15:36] people. 600 hectares went up in
[00:15:39] smoke. Our solidarity mechanism was activated 10
[00:15:43] times within the European Union, twice outside,
[00:15:45] in Chile and Tunisia, where we
[00:15:49] were able to respond positively to all
[00:15:52] requests. But now we are really at the
[00:15:56] maximum of what we can do. And what we already
[00:15:59] know through all the scientific observations is that it will
[00:16:03] happen again. Either we continue to chase disasters by
[00:16:07] trying... to put them out, or we prevent them,
[00:16:10] anticipate them, and stop them from occurring. And so what I
[00:16:14] propose is to anticipate these fires,
[00:16:17] to prevent them from happening, to prepare. That's why I am
[00:16:21] also the first commissioner for anticipation and management.
[00:16:25] So my goal is to make sure there are no more fires. While we
[00:16:29] may not be able to prevent all of them, we can certainly reduce them. You know,
[00:16:33] today, 66,000 hectares went up in smoke. Last
[00:16:36] year, it was 1 million hectares. So
[00:16:40] there has been some progress, but what struck
[00:16:43] us this year is that these fires have increasingly affected large
[00:16:46] cities like Bordeaux, and have
[00:16:50] led to the evacuation of 220,000 people,
[00:16:53] 22,000 people in danger who had to leave
[00:16:56] sometimes in a few minutes, leave their homes without knowing if they
[00:16:59] would see them again. That's why we need to involve citizens.
[00:17:03] That's why I also presented the 72 hours of
[00:17:07] resilience, not just to stay home in a crisis, but also to
[00:17:11] leave, to be able to leave in record time and know what to take. In
[00:17:15] the meantime, 22 Canadairs, five helicopters, ground resources, that's
[00:17:18] the European protection mechanism. Countries also
[00:17:22] need to play their part, to buy on their side and reinforce because
[00:17:26] not everything can go through the European Union. Yes, we need to
[00:17:29] know that in a crisis,
[00:17:32] the state is always the first responder. It is
[00:17:35] sovereign, and it is only as a last resort that it activates a
[00:17:39] European mechanism. Where we really add
[00:17:42] value is that we can create a common
[00:17:45] pool to share Canadairs,
[00:17:49] helicopters. All states, imagine if
[00:17:52] all states started buying Canadairs, 10
[00:17:55] Canadairs each, that's a lot of money. On the other hand, if we
[00:17:59] create a European pool as we have today, then
[00:18:03] it allows us to distribute to states, small and large states
[00:18:07] alike. We saw it in France this summer, to
[00:18:10] benefit
[00:18:12] from a strategic reserve that we share, and that is the added
[00:18:15] value of the European Union. But now, in fact, we are discovering more and
[00:18:19] more with global warming – we must not forget that the
[00:18:22] European continent is the one that is warming the most on the
[00:18:25] planet – that we need these planes, these
[00:18:29] helicopters, these ground resources much
[00:18:31] more than 10 years ago. So, Europeans have
[00:18:35] faced, as you said,
[00:18:37] an unprecedented heatwave, yet your European Commission is
[00:18:41] also accused of having passed so-called omnibus
[00:18:44] laws to reduce the environmental obligations of companies,
[00:18:48] multinationals, transporters,
[00:18:51] farmers, and thus to cancel the beneficial effects, the reduction
[00:18:54] in CO2 provided by the Green Deal. Is the European
[00:18:58] Commission acting against the current of global
[00:19:01] warming? Has it not lost sight
[00:19:04] of the Paris objectives?
[00:19:07] So, as far as global warming is concerned, we are staying the
[00:19:11] course, but we really need to get everyone on board and make sure that
[00:19:15] our industry continues to be competitive,
[00:19:19] that we also continue to boost research and development, that
[00:19:22] our citizens are also able to meet these
[00:19:26] requirements, whereas elsewhere,
[00:19:29] if today, for example, the European Union pollutes about
[00:19:33] 6% of greenhouse gas emissions, China represents
[00:19:36] 30%, the United States 11%,
[00:19:39] about 10% for India, so it's a collective
[00:19:43] effort. The problem is when there is a distortion
[00:19:47] somewhere between the objectives of the European
[00:19:50] Union and then competitors who benefit
[00:19:54] from these objectives that we set ourselves and respect, and others
[00:19:58] who do not respect them and at the same time develop
[00:20:02] electric vehicles, etc., and who really become competitors
[00:20:06] who... our markets also with these new technologies,
[00:20:10] so we really need to work on new partnerships, and
[00:20:13] that's why we proposed with the president
[00:20:17] this new partnership with Canada, with critical
[00:20:20] materials, rare earths that are essential, industrial
[00:20:24] production also, among others, Canadairs and an economic
[00:20:28] partnership, CETA, which has already proven its worth, as the trade balance is entirely
[00:20:32] to the advantage of the European Union. You are also in charge,
[00:20:35] Madam Commissioner, of the fight against discrimination,
[00:20:39] this is what the term equality covers. We talk
[00:20:42] a lot in particular about LGBTQI+.
[00:20:46] You are pleased with an improvement in Hungary since the fall of Viktor
[00:20:50] Orban, no doubt, and then in Turkey,
[00:20:53] well, minorities are massively imprisoned
[00:20:56] by hundreds. What can the European Union do?
[00:20:59] In Hungary, it's clear, I went there when
[00:21:03] it was under Orban and the Pride was
[00:21:06] forbidden, for example, to
[00:21:09] transmit a strong message of condemnation
[00:21:13] of this ban
[00:21:15] on the Pride March, which I myself also participated
[00:21:18] in this year. I met all the members of the government,
[00:21:21] communicated with the Minister of Justice. I am
[00:21:25] delighted that this march was authorized and that Hungary
[00:21:28] is looking again and fully regaining its
[00:21:32] place within the European family.
[00:21:35] Now, Turkey, as you know, is a candidate country that is not yet
[00:21:39] part of the European Union. The road is still
[00:21:42] long, especially with what has just happened recently,
[00:21:46] with this kind of purge, one might say, which resulted
[00:21:50] in the arrest of
[00:21:53] representatives of the LGBT community. I am
[00:21:56] very sorry. We will
[00:22:00] certainly have discussions, because
[00:22:03] if Turkey is a candidate state,
[00:22:07] it must also move closer to our values, and our union is
[00:22:11] a union of diversity, a union where everyone
[00:22:14] must feel included and
[00:22:16] accepted, no matter who they love.
[00:22:21] And these negotiations are frozen, they are moving further away, they are moving
[00:22:24] away. So, on the subject of crisis
[00:22:27] preparedness, which is very important for you, we see more and
[00:22:31] more present in our daily lives the overflight of
[00:22:34] drones above the
[00:22:37] 27, which are multiplying, as are cyber attacks or threats of
[00:22:41] cyber attacks. What lessons do you draw from this? The lesson I draw
[00:22:44] from this is that we are neither in a state of peace nor in a state of
[00:22:48] war, and that what we called hybrid threats
[00:22:52] are less and less threats, but
[00:22:55] real risks on our soil. I recently
[00:22:59] went to Romania where very regularly
[00:23:02] pieces of drones, even entire drones, fall on the
[00:23:06] border, representing risks both for children playing on the
[00:23:10] beaches and for adults collecting them in their
[00:23:13] fields. And you see what happened also at Leipzig airport where
[00:23:17] a terrorist attack that could have truly had a major impact on European soil was
[00:23:28] stopped, so we are
[00:23:31] in a really gray
[00:23:34] situation where we need to look at the situation, I mean,
[00:23:37] the truth in the face, which is that this war that is
[00:23:41] raging in Ukraine is contaminating European soil more and
[00:23:45] more, and we must prepare for these threats. You know, today, war begins
[00:23:49] in our pockets, on our smartphones,
[00:23:54] manipulation. I also went to Moldova, where, as you know, elections
[00:23:57] were won despite everything by Maia
[00:24:00] Sandu, by a democratic force, despite all
[00:24:03] the attempts at manipulation and vote-buying from
[00:24:06] citizens. You know that in
[00:24:09] Europe, we are heading towards this very
[00:24:12] important election. If this election, among others, in France and also in
[00:24:15] Germany, Sweden just
[00:24:18] had one. Who knows if we will be
[00:24:21] manipulated, if our citizens will not be
[00:24:24] massively manipulated by foreign
[00:24:27] forces. So, we need to educate our citizens, our
[00:24:31] media too. You are part of the
[00:24:33] democratic pillar, and so
[00:24:36] having that in mind together, Adjal Habib, when you
[00:24:39] see the progression of extreme-right parties like the AfD in
[00:24:43] Germany, which scored points in local
[00:24:46] elections, the Sweden Democrats in the last elections.
[00:24:50] which sets the tone on many subjects, particularly immigration.
[00:24:54] Uh, soon elections in France with the National Rally leading
[00:24:58] the polls, do you think that the stigmatization of
[00:25:01] migrants is a discourse that has become more authorized, more
[00:25:04] common in our European societies? Our
[00:25:08] union was built on
[00:25:10] diversity. You just have to look at the parliamentary
[00:25:13] chambers, you see varied
[00:25:17] opinions, divergent,
[00:25:20] unfortunately increasingly polarized, which makes the richness of this
[00:25:23] parliament of European institutions, it's precisely
[00:25:26] exchange, diversity,
[00:25:29] difference. Now playing on fears,
[00:25:33] withdrawal, is exactly against
[00:25:35] the European project, which is a project
[00:25:39] of unity, of uniting in diversity and
[00:25:43] of values. And so, we must remember why this European Union was built
[00:25:47] and return to the fundamentals. That is,
[00:25:50] respect, freedom, peace.
[00:25:53] It is a peace project, and what the extremes advocate
[00:25:57] for, in fact, is anything but peace. It is withdrawal, fear of the other,
[00:26:01] and so there you have it. These are populist discourses,
[00:26:05] unfortunately, simplistic, and which are
[00:26:07] manipulated in addition by malevolent
[00:26:10] powers like Russia, and we
[00:26:13] also see the United States supporting extreme-right
[00:26:17] groups, and that's why today we need to
[00:26:21] expand our partnerships. We have about
[00:26:23] 80, we are certainly the union with the
[00:26:27] most agreements in the world, and why do these agreements exist? Because
[00:26:30] people, other countries also think that we are
[00:26:34] still that beacon in the night when it comes to respect, values,
[00:26:38] democracy and principles and also the well-being and
[00:26:41] protection of our citizens. Thank you, Adjabib, for being our
