After key talks in Brussels, NATO has said it is ready to ‘do what it takes’ to protect Europe. This in response to Vladimir Putin’s comments that Russia did not want it, but would be ‘ready for war’ with Europe. Euronews correspondent Shona Murray has spent most of the week at the NATO headquarters and joins us now on set for an update.
Coming up, we will be joined by Roxana Mînzatu, an Executive Vice-President of the European Commission. The Romanian socialist politician spent years as minister for European funds and also had a stint as an MEP, but now her wide portfolio includes social rights, skills, quality jobs and preparedness.
And another politician having an intense day is France’s President Macron who is currently on his 4th trip to China. Amid tensions over Ukraine, the French president is spending three days discussing trade, geopolitics and Ukraine. For more on this visit, we can cross over to Paris to speak to our correspondent Sophia Khatsenkova.
And finally, it is time to talk about the Eurovision Song Contest. The festival is hanging on a thread after the boycott of several countries, including Spain, one of the five largest contributors to Eurovision. They argue that Israel should get the same treatment as Russia, which was excluded in 2022 after Ukraine’s invasion. Jakub Janas reports.
