06:07Now when pressed by Euronews
06:08And how exactly Antonio Guterres sees this peace
06:11And what exactly he means
06:13When he says it is time to stop this madness
06:15He admitted that what he says
06:17It means Ukraine regaining its territory
06:19From Russian occupation
06:21Not only the territory occupied since 2022
06:23But also the one from 2014
06:25Let's take a listen
06:26This is high time for a ceasefire
06:29And it is high time for a negotiation
06:32Aiming at a just solution
06:36and the just solution is for us
06:39a solution that is
06:40in line with the charter, it's in line
06:43with international
06:44law, it respects
06:46UN resolutions and respects
06:48the territorial integrity of Ukraine
06:50But the reality, of course, Sasha, is there's no
06:52sign of a ceasefire, there's no sign
06:54of substantial peace talks and we've seen
06:56the violence for the last
06:58seven nights in a row, I believe, in Ukraine
07:00and especially in Kyiv. Absolutely, there
07:02is no sign whatsoever that there is any
07:05easing of Russia's all-out war
07:06against Ukraine, despite all the pressure and all the
07:08calls from Western leaders, specifically
07:10of course from Washington, with Trump administration
07:13remaining kind of the only
07:15mediator for any sort of
07:16peace talks. In fact, over the past couple of days
07:18according to Washington officials,
07:20exactly this peace process was the reason why
07:22Russia's finance minister was
07:24for the first time since Russia's full-scale invasion of
07:26Ukraine invited to the G20 meeting
07:28in the US, the move that was widely
07:30unpopular among the other officials
07:33the European finance ministers angered
07:35them. There was reaction
07:37coming from the EU economy chief
07:39Valdez Dombrowski and also from German
07:41vice-chancellor who said he confronted
07:43Russia's finance minister Anton Silanov
07:45over Moscow's war
07:47against Ukraine, saying that
07:49the war is raging and as you said
07:51over the past seven days, Ukrainians
07:53and also European
07:55officials have not had lots of
07:57sleep of lots of rest with constant
07:59drone attacks. Moscow changing
08:01it's taxing and using more of jet-powered drones
08:03that are harder to intercept
08:04and people among those struggling
08:07with non-stop air raid
08:09alerts with their lives fully disrupted
08:11is also EU's ambassador
08:13to Ukraine who went on
08:15acts to express how her life
08:17has been over the past couple of
08:19days saying, I do not sleep in
08:21my bed anymore, I fall asleep on a mattress
08:22in the bathroom. It is the safest
08:25place in my hotel room. The intensity
08:26of these attacks is becoming very
08:29difficult. People are exhausted
08:30cities are exhausted, the whole
08:32country is living under permanent
08:34stress. Now in retaliation
08:36in response, Ukraine's president
08:38Volodymyr Zelensky said that
08:40Russia should expect its airspace
08:43civilian airspace including
08:44to be effectively
08:46closed as Kiev is about to
08:48ramp up, to step up its
08:50long-range drone campaign
08:52against Russia military
08:54sites. Okay, Sasha Vaklina, our
08:56Ukraine correspondent, thank you so much
08:58for all those details. Now
09:00moving on, as an October
09:02deadline looms for the European Union
09:04to rebalance its record trade
09:05deficit with China, pressure is
09:08mounting on Brussels to deliver
09:10results. Our chief Europe editor
09:12Maria Tadeo sat down exclusively
09:14with the man driving the
09:15negotiations, that's of course the EU
09:17Trade Commissioner Mara
09:18Sefcovic and she joins me now for
09:20more. Maria, we know that a team of
09:22European officials are actually in
09:23Beijing as we speak, what are they
09:25hoping to achieve?
09:26Well, yes Maeve, they are in China and
09:28have been, but as I understand they
09:29will come back today and of course
09:31that will allow for a debrief on the
09:33big European question going into
09:35September and that is what to do with
09:37China. We've seen that 1 billion euro
09:39a day deficit, 350 or 60 last year. This
09:43is now for Brussels, not sustainable
09:45over time and there will need to be or
09:47they need a rebalancing by October and
09:51that is exactly the question that I put to
09:53the man who's going to be at the driving
09:55seats in this very difficult talks. Of
09:58course, we have practically five to six
09:59weeks left. If there is no
10:01understanding, that could lead to
10:03retaliation from the European Union and
10:06as I understand right now, there are two
10:08tracks to these talks. One is getting
10:10China to open up its market, but then
10:12the other point is very much about how
10:14to tackle the surging deficit and this
10:17barrage of exports going into the
10:19European Union. The very heart of the
10:21European industry is at stake and I was
10:24very struck by the words of Madov
10:25Sashkovic who told me this is not just a
10:27trade story, it is super political. But
10:29the question remains, how do you get
10:31China to change? And that's exactly the
10:33question that I put to him. Let's take a
10:35look.
10:36I think first and foremost, we want to
10:40convey clearly the message and we made
10:42some very concrete proposals how to
10:46proceed to that the issue of the
10:48deficit, which is in the realm of 360
10:50billion is best tackled if you work on
10:54it from the both sides. So what can we
10:57do to increase our exports to China, but
10:59also how we can better manage the
11:02exports from China to the European
11:04Union. So this is what we are
11:05currently discussing. Of course, it's a
11:09issue which would require clearly more
11:11time than until October. But what I think
11:14it's very important for us to have by
11:16October some kind of proof of concept. But
11:18when you say in October, what is that? Is
11:21that a firm deadline? Is that a cliff
11:23fetch moment? Is that the start of
11:25negotiations with something binding on
11:27paper? How do you know you have a deal?
11:29Will you be able to produce that by
11:30October?
11:30I think that in my ideal scenario to come
11:32back from China with the positive news
11:35that we have understanding how to deal
11:38with the surging deficit in certain
11:40categories of the products. This is how we
11:42are going to deal with them. And and
11:44therefore, I would I would propose to
11:47continue, you know, the negotiations on
11:50other sectors, which would kind of bring
11:53us into the realistic path of how to
11:56rein in the surging deficit. So how are you
11:58going to make them do that? Because this
11:59conversation has been going on for months
12:01and some would say for years. Action should
12:03have been taken five, ten years ago. How are
12:05you going to break this cycle? I think that, as I
12:07said, we have now unprecedented intensity
12:10of our negotiations. I think we never
12:12talked to our Chinese counterparts as
12:15frequently, as intensely as right now. And I
12:18clearly understood also from my Chinese
12:20counterpart, Minister Van Guentao, that this
12:22is also the preferred option to talk. They do
12:25not want an escalation. They have told you
12:27they do not want an escalation. Exactly. This
12:28is what we this is. But that's a great deal
12:29for them. They continue dumping and there's
12:31no escalation. But of course, I told them
12:33that, look, if I will not bring tangible
12:35results by October. And this is something
12:37what was agreed mutually by Minister
12:40Van Guentao and myself, because he
12:42understand if I kind of come back and tell
12:44them that we have a nice talk and we
12:46continue talking. Of course, this would be
12:48not something to the satisfaction of the
12:50European leaders and European also, you
12:53know, captains of the of the industry,
12:55because I told our Chinese counterparts
12:57that our discussion goes well beyond the
13:01trade, because now we're talking about
13:02future European industry, you know, how
13:04the European economy will look like in the
13:06future. And I would say in the end on
13:09about the European social model. So this
13:11is super political. And of course, every
13:15single prime minister, every single
13:17president of the European Union is very
13:18much concerned by this. And therefore, we
13:20have to bring that the good political
13:23solution. And was there an understanding
13:25from the Chinese that this time you will
13:28have the instruments and you will have the
13:30political unity? Because this has not been
13:32the case. And that's partly the reason why, to
13:34me, it seems until now, China does not fear
13:37retaliation. They do not think you will do
13:39it. I think that at least my impression was
13:44that the fact that this is really an urgent call,
13:47that this is not, I would say, the situation
13:49like we had, I mean, before with half of the
13:53member states doing well, half of the half of
13:55them suffering, that it's really, I would say,
13:58unified European approach that this has to change,
14:01that we have to address this issue. And then I'm
14:03trying to do it through, I would say that the
14:05negotiations, but they have to bring us very
14:08concrete results. Otherwise, of course, there
14:10will be a strong political movement to push for, I
14:15would say, harsher, harsher measures. Yes. And let's go
14:18into the final point, which is the Canadians. Canada is
14:22now in an unprecedented trade war with the United
14:24States. Tariffs through the roof both ways. And just
14:28very quickly, given the situation that they're in,
14:30this is going to hurt the Canadian economy. There's
14:32no doubt about that. The tariffs now are going
14:34through the roof and there's no idea or limit to
14:38the escalation. Do you feel the EU should intervene,
14:43try to mediate? You talk about a good relationship, they
14:46are going to feel the pain. I don't think that we are in
14:49a position to mediate. But at the same time, I know that
14:55they have such a close economic relationship that despite of
14:59current tension, sooner or later, there will be attempts to
15:02resolve it. Of course, I'm not in the file, but I know that
15:07this is very important for both partners. But we clearly are
15:13highlighting one thing for us. The tariffs are taxes. Taxes are
15:17paid in the end, or by the economic operators or by the
15:22citizens. And we clearly are stating in all our trade
15:25negotiations, we clearly support free and fair trade with
15:30lower or no tariffs at all, because we believe it's best for
15:33the citizens, best for the business and best for economic
15:35developments.
15:38Now, moving on, Romania is set to lose more than 700 million
15:43euros in EU funding after the government in Bucharest failed to
15:47deliver reforms demanded by Brussels. A deadline set for
15:51August the 31st has now passed, creating a bitter dispute among
15:55political forces and unions over proposed reform of public sector
15:59salaries. For the view from Bucharest, we can bring in now the
16:02Dagos Pizlaru, Minister of Investments and European
16:05Projects of Romania. Good morning, Minister. Thrilled to have you with us
16:08here on Europe Today. So tell us you've missed that deadline. The
16:12government has been in crisis for months, sliding further into
16:15economic abyss. Could this have been avoided?
16:19Absolutely. This is an important reform. Thanks for having me to
16:22explain a little bit about the background. This was part of the
16:27RRF, of the recovery programme that is the biggest intervention of
16:31the union to recover after the pandemics. And the government had time
16:37from 2021 onwards to prepare that particular reform. Because of the
16:43election context, the parties in power at that time, especially the
16:47social democrats, have avoided to propose any draft legislation on that. And
16:53even in the coalition government that we had since June 2025, they failed to do
16:59that. So basically, we entered in the last minute attempt to save it. And still the
17:04costs, the political costs were considered higher than the hefty amount, 770 million
17:09that we had in the RRF. There was a split in the pro-European coalition, two parties. So
17:17the EPP and Renew going for, adopting it, and the SND and the Hungarian Minority Party
17:23against.
17:25So what would be your message then to decision makers here in Brussels? Can these EU funds
17:29still be salvaged?
17:31I mean, let's look at the half-full, half-empty part of the glass. Romania right now has managed
17:38to save the Recovering Resilience Plan because we started last year from less than 47 percent.
17:47And now we are pretty sure that we are going to get over 90 percent of the grants and over
17:5295 percent of the loans. So there is a good image about how we handle the RRP. But of course,
18:02the main lesson here is that we don't need to avoid these kind of reforms when we have
18:08such an opportunity. It will be far more difficult to adopt it. That's one thing. Second, for respecting
18:14Romania's commitments in terms of budget deficit reduction and so on, this would have been a
18:20very important piece of legislation. Right now, I'm relying on the wisdom of the political
18:24class to adopt still such a legislation because it's needed, but it will be much more difficult
18:31to adopt it outside the recovery process.
18:34And just a reminder of yours, why you desperately need these 700 million euros, why they're so
18:38important for the Romanian economy?
18:40I mean, it's very important. This was one of that measures that could contribute directly
18:45to reducing the budget deficit while allowing investments. Just to clarify how it operates,
18:51we have investments in schools, in hospitals, in highways and so on. And all these investments
18:58could have actually added another 770 millions available for the budget to compensate them. Right
19:06now, we need to finance it from the budget. And that would actually be with an extra.
19:10Okay, Minister Dragos Pislaro, thank you so much for being our guest this morning here
