the eu is trying to grasp it. the eu is successful, more or less, on different issues, but in the end of the day, it's the responsibility of national states to protect its territorial sovereignty and integrity and integrity of their societies, so the eu can help, but in the end of the day, it's up to states. many in europe are already wondering what the endgame is, how this terrible war in ukraine comes to some sort of resolution. now, back in the summer, french president emmanuel macron said that key to this was not humiliating russia in any settlement. do you agree? i would disagree because there is no way how to humiliate russia. even they...they can... their propaganda can exploit anything. they have... they were as successful attacking kyiv and then leaving snake island and calling that a gesture of goodwill. so, i wouldn't really be caring about russia in this matter. but what we need to care is the future settlement, that the future settlement will reflect the integrity, territorial integrity of ukraine and

the problem is within the eu afterwards we need price signals within the eu to get to the right place otherwise we need a quota system where the gas that comes in is distributed to germany which will be complicated. germany needs the intra-eu pricing signal where it is most desperately needed >> i'm scurious in the germany package. it doesn't do anything to shore up energy supplies it is all about cushioning the blow for consumers and businesses within germany. at the same time, the problem is supply itself. if we end up in an incredibly cold winter, how is germany going to be positioned >> it is a very small supply component in the paper they agreed last week at the start, actually they want to extend nuclear for a little bit to generate electricity. as you say, that is not the main issue here the main aim is clearly to help households and help firms with the big hit to profits and big hit to incomes that the high gas prices entail. we don't know the details of this yet, the german government is proposing something different from what other governments like the uk and other countries

francine: the eu approved new sanctions on russian oil. let's head to vienna where manus cranny is standing by. let's start with the rally in prices, you had market moving interviews yesterday, what are traders looking at today? manus: they are more worried about cuts to come, caps, cuts and conflict. i'll come to the conflict in just a moment. to quote one of the great american quotes from the time of the iraq war, the known unknowns and of the unknown unknowns, we are going into this vortex of the unknown, which are what will be impact of this price caps have on production and price volatility? for the russians, it will be a near-term reduction in production. that was the first sit down with the russian or and minister. -- foreign minister. novak with his warning to the west as he arrived in the heart of europe. >> such actions as we're seeing create a very bad precedent. we will primarily hit the ones who are doing it. history has countless examples of market interference, especially with the mechanism of price controls. leading to defi

>> the eu is out. the eu is in cahoots with the greeks. they cannot be impartial. maybe turkey can do something about that. end of year, we need to explore oil and gas and get things moving. get the perspective and the increase in production is much-needed and we can't afford the tit-for-tat. we have enough problems of our own. anchor: had you see the steel benefiting? >> the oil and gas sector has been neglected for a long time. infrastructure is basically deteriorating and so on. we need to increase spending. the income is very low compared to the past. there are markets for the and we need the investments. anchor: have you see this playing out, the longer this goes on? >> the european union can't do it alone. there is a key pillar so these things need to be taken into account. this is how this family is working. it will join the meeting of the european cooperation. he wants to cooperate. within this contact, the european union can push forward greece, israel and other sides like egypt, jordan, italy and france. it can be there. this is -- anchor: thank you for a

>> do we have unity between the eu and the americans, the eu and the rest of the world? there was a feeling that we need the whole world, and not just government, but the private sector to make it back into the ukrainian area if we want to survive. others say we need to send a stronger signal to russia, so we need to use russian frozen assets to reimburse ukraine. that's one of the ideas that will have to be discusse brent: the latest on the conference today here in berlin. as always, thank you. let's take a look at some of the other stories making headlines around the world. italy's far right leader georgia maloney has reaffirmed her support for the eu, for ukraine and her first speech as prime minister. she also laid out her governments policy plan before parliament's lower chambers of deputies ahead of a confidence vote. she says that her priority will be helping businesses and households cope with rising inflation. a fire at aoarding school for blind children in ugandhas killed 11 students. six others are in critical condition. the blaze broke out past midnight at th

"not an eu construct, not an eu alternative," said liz truss, but an opportunity to discuss wider interests relating to ukraine, energy and security. russia's war demands cooperation beyond the eu's 27 member states. in all, 44 countries were represented in prague today, including countries like alabania and azerbaijan, who are currently in a state of conlict. but the seating plan was hardly the most difficult issue. after last month's sabotage of the two pipelines in the baltic sea and the 0pec+ decision wedneday to cut daily oil production by 2 million barrels, europe is staring at a winter energy crisis. the national grid warned today that households in the uk could face three—hour power cuts this winter in a cold snap if the wind fails to blow. as this map demonstrates, we might become dependent on the energy grid in europe, which is deeply integrated. and liz truss wants assurances, as do others european leaders, that the interconnectors will be kept open. we do have good energy supplies in the uk. we can get through the winter, but, of course, i'm always looking for ways that we can

training programs like this will soon be rolled out in the eu as well. eu foreign ministers at a meeting in luxembourg are discussing plans that include training programs for some 15,000 ukrainian soldiers and several eu countries have already honored national agreements to train ukrainian soldiers germany's most recent commitment has been in the areas. the u. s. mission is scheduled to run for two years initially for example to train snipers and develop their skills areas like first aid and mine clearance. but how sustainable is it to train ukrainian soldiers without delivering more sorely needed? that is the question. well, as we've heard, nato and the eu are supporting ukrainian ukraine with financial support modern weapons. now also training soldiers on a large scale carolina. do you not think that that therefore de facto makes the west a combat in this conflict. west has been the combatant of this war from the very beginning from day one of this war because there is no one war. there are two wars. at least one war is the war with weapons in ukraine

she has made it very clear that she is in support of the eu. she has really reinforced that italy is in with eu and nato. she has rejected any sort of pro-russia or pro put in positions. she really is trying to project an image as a stable and credible leader on the international stage even though shcomes from a far right background. i think that kind of scaremongering about having a far right government in italy, it might scandalize and might be misleading. >> tell us more about the history of the brothers of italy. a lot of people think that they do have echoes of the far right in italy. >> of course they do have. it is deniable that the country has roots and some connections with the far right and the fascist part of the party. but the party has also evolved over time. judge maloney has been successful carving a space within the right wing side of the electorate and has managed to get an image as an alternative to war the other right-wing parties present at the moment. if we look at the result of the elections held in september, there is no

whether you worry that little north macedonia is going to still be left on the sidelines because the eu now has ukraine front and centre of its attention. i cannot agree with this, because we started the negotiations with the european union onjuly 19th. two days before that, we made decision in the parliament to accept the european proposal, which was prepared during the french presidency, and that is why many people call it the french proposal. and this proposal came onjune 30th this year. so this is the time of the war in ukraine. and that's why i'm saying that the new geostrategic situation in europe actually put it in the spotlight, the western balkans, because europe without the western balkans is not complete. and we have proven, especially north macedonia, by aligning ourforeign policy 100% with the european union, that we belong in the european union. making these decisions and starting the negotiations onjuly 19th is proving that european union is a reliable partner with whom we started the negotiations and where we will progress in our negotiations. i'm interested in north mac

the eu thought she wouldn't go. liz the eu thought she wouldn't go. l2 truss the eu thought she wouldn't go. lz truss had a number of concerns. i think the first is this doesn't do anything to cut across nato, nothing to undermine the g7 or the g20 but it can be seen as a de facto or shadow european union. i think the french in particular worked extremely hard to reassure the uk government that this format is different, the role of the european commission has been actively minimised. the role of the european council has been actively minimised. there will be no principles from european union chairing any of the meetings. i think all these things worked to reassure the uk government that this is a completely different format. this is not about the eu and actually does represent and will present a potentially collaborative and interesting a new way of working together. so i think that is part of the reason liz truss turned up. the other is there is a set of objectives i think she wants to make common cause with with the eu and the other countries attend

privately, eu leaders have breathed a sigh of relief that borisjohnson has not returned to number ten, borisjohnson has not returned to numberten, he borisjohnson has not returned to number ten, he is seen as divisive and unreliable here. rishi sunak is viewed as a pragmatist, a grown up in the words of one eu diplomat i speak to this evening. he is known as a supporter of brexit but on the campaign trail this summer he said it was not in the uk's interest to have a trade war with the eu. now that is thinking economically, but politically, considering how fractious the conservative party is, it may be very difficult for rishi sunak to be seen to be making compromises with the eu. so in brussels this evening, the thinking is that at best eu business will not be a priority for rishi sunak but at worst he could be tempted to court controversy, for example, over the northern ireland protocol, to shore up political support in eurosceptic waters back home. anotherfamiliarface, another familiar face, jonathan charles joining another familiar face, jonathan charlesjoining us. good morning to

this is the eu and as you know, you need unanimity up the 27 to this. yesterday when i spoke to the dutch finance minister, she was clear that they do not see the need for more tools. there is enough money doing the rounds and it should be better employed instead of creating new instruments. francine: our european correspondent maria tadeo in brussels. let's check a lot, do you like that? -- at gilts, we had a third intervention from the bank of england and there has been concern. the u.k. has run a deficit in its current accounts deficit, and they have to balance it or we won't rely on the kindness of strangers so much, there are things in terms of liquidity regulators are looking at but what does it take for the bank having lived to be stabilized again? tom: i think the language from the bank of england is fascinating, they say "the dysfunction in this market and the prospect of self reinforcing fire sale dynamics pose a material risk to u.k. financial stability" and talking of gilts, there has been money moving into gilts on the back of this interven

is he going to strike a more conciliatory tone with eu leaders? tim: he is a brexiteer, unlicensed liz truss -- unlike liz truss who voted remain with and changed her colors. i think we are looking at an easing of the relationship potentially with the u.k. and there appeared liz truss a few you -- u.k. liz truss a few weeks ago called for a wider europe, including for countries outside the eu apart from russia and belarus. i think the sticking point is going to be over the northern island protocol -- northern ireland protocol. a deal with the eu about the trading relationship between the republic of ireland and northern ireland on the island of ireland. that is going to be a very tricky problem to resolve as far as europe is concerned, and the free market which they want to have with the republic of ireland, and how you prevent those goods going across the border with the north. there's a lot for rishi sunak to do. he will try to reset the mood around the relationship with europe, but there's still of seemingly intractable problems. laura: thank y

the eu is happy -- unhappy about the u.k. reneging on its commitments under the northern ireland protocol. will rishi sunak pursue that bill? some say he has already agreed with the right wing of the tory party to do that and carry on with the, but it would be madness went with the country needs more than anything is stability and not a trade war with the eu. kriti: what can we expect when it comes to the cabinet? there is consensus that he will keep on jeremy hunt. what else is the economy in the market looking for? prof. barnard: the government of all talents would be a good start. a broad range of people drawn from parts of the conservative party. that was one of liz truss's failures that she only brought in her own supporters and not already led to an amount of disquiet. i think he will look wide and drop from all parts of the party to try to get off on solid footing -- draw from all parts of the party to try to get off on solid footing. jon: appreciate it, catherine barnard, professor of european employment law at cambri

the eu commission's president said a toxin infrastructure were acts of terrorism. and a funeral procession held for palestinians failed in the occupied west bank -- killed in the occupied west bank. dozens of protesters have been injured in sudan and demonstrations marking the first anniversary of the military coup. the takeover and did a transitional government meant to lead sedan into elections. the country's been in political turmoil since then with repeated protests and talks between parties failing to produce results. we have more from khartoum. reporter: the first anniversary of sedan military takeover, and thousands gathered to demonstrate in the capital, khartoum. and other cities. handing over power to a civilian government. >> we want to return to a democratic civilian tradition. the army should return to the barracks and militia groups to be dissolved. we don't want them to rule. they should know they are supposed to only preserve the country's security, not to overpower -- not to take overpower. reporter: entering a transitional government that was part

the eu's commissioner for energy, kadri simson, is in prague at an informal meeting of the eu's energy ministers, hoping to lay down the groundwork that might lead to a eu wide deal soon. there was no breakthrough at last week's summit, where each member country's differing approach to energy sources and suppliers proved a hurdle too high to overcome. joining me now is richard black, senior associate, energy & climate intelligence unit. and approached the price of energy, we crisis, energy, security and supply that is a tall order, isn't it? it's worth saying they have made substantial progress in some important issues, so for example, they have restricted the consumption of electricity, they've agreed that, they put a cap basically on the price of electricity paid not being generated by gas, this is mainly renewables and nuclear and some of the midnight plants, the big issue remains for this meeting, can they put a cap on the price of gas that is coming into europe, on all gas or some gas because there are fears that by doing that, they would restrict the ability to import enough gas.

it has never been a member of the eu for a similar reason, it's just a big country to begin and the eu has never been able to an edge that. i think there are other answers when it comes to ukraine that officials would give you from the eu and nato. one of the things they would have pointed to, before the current war, is that corruption, rule of law was a problem in ukraine in a way that it was not in poland or the baltic republics, hungary, czech republic, slovakia. other countries that don't enter nato, bulgaria, they work that out better than ukraine did. and ukraine was a problematic candidate in that regard. but i think the ultimate, answer and it's very frustrating to stay from a ukrainian point of view, but the ultimate answer is the proximity to russia. the baltic republic on the map, they're not further from russia than ukraine's. they felt in some ways further from russia. don slavitt populations, predominantly not orthodox christian, however you wish to demonize these things. perhaps perceived as more european than ukraine was. but that that ukraine was somehow tied to russia

he wanted to stay in the eu. but rishi sunak didn't. he wanted out. the uk wanted out, too. david cameron would resign. six years later, rishi sunak was chancellor. he'd been loyal to borisjohnson, until the scandals became too much. he resigned saying he didn't agree with mrjohnson�*s approach. a summer leadership contest followed. time and again, he contrasted his message with his opponent's. i've said the things that i believe our country needs to hear. he lost. but liz truss would come and go. and now rishi sunak is prime minister. he's the leader who needs to persuade his colleagues to fall in line and agree. hi. welcome. now, last week when we started this series, the prime minister had just resigned, this time we have a new prime minister. and also last week i was telling you the home secretary had just resigned, now she's the new home secretary. so, we're doing out best to keep up. i'll take you through all that. not just that, though. protests are spreading in iran again. we will update you there. we have to talk about this, too, because we're all still asking, wh
