EU leaders gathered yesterday for a tense summit focused on Ukraine and Iran. After more than 12 hours of talks, Viktor Orbán claimed victory as Hungary’s veto of the EU’s €90 billion loan for Ukraine remains in place. On the US-Israeli war on Iran, the 27 EU leaders urged the parties involved to spare energy infrastructure from strikes. Discussions on competitiveness also took place, but were overshadowed by the two wars. On this episode of Europe Today, we have in-depth analysis by our correspondents on all of it, but also an exclusive interview with Hildegard Bentele, Member of the European Parliament (EPP, Germany) and an in-depth explainer of the EU Emissions Trading System (ETS) by Europe Today’s Jakub Janas.
