01:00After holding talks with Vladimir Putin in Moscow the day before
01:03The mission comes after days of escalating Russian aerial attacks
01:09And Ursula von der Leyen is in Greenland
01:12Where she is expected to sign a joint declaration
01:15With the Danish Autonomous Territory later today
01:18The EU Commission President wants to express the bloc's steadfast support of Greenland
01:23Amid continuous calls from President Donald Trump for the United States to acquire it
01:30Welcome to the program, I'm Stefan Grobe
01:33Let's go straight to the historic election in Germany
01:37Where the far-right AfD party won the majority in the eastern state of Saxony-Anhalt
01:42Will this shake up Friedrich Merz's coalition government in Berlin?
01:46Let's head over to our correspondent Laura Fleischmann in the German capital
01:50Good morning, Laura
01:51So, help us understand this AfD landslide
01:56What was actually driving this result?
02:01Good morning to you too, Stefan
02:03And well, let me first lay out the current situation in Saxony-Anhalt
02:07The AfD won around 43% of the votes
02:10Looking at the latest projection
02:12And the CDU who is currently governing in Saxony-Anhalt
02:15Is at around 17%
02:17And was less than half
02:18So, the current situation in Saxony-Anhalt
02:22Is that the AfD is planning on governing with an outright majority
02:27But there are only three seats shy of that
02:29And this leaves them with the situation that they will need to form a coalition
02:33Before the top candidate of the AfD, Ulrich Siegmund
02:37Has stated that he would not want to form a coalition
02:40But now he seems to have to
02:41So, the CDU stated that they will rule out a coalition with the AfD
02:46This only leaves the BSW
02:48But they also said that they would not vote for Siegmund
02:52For a state minister
02:53For a minister-president in the state parliament of Saxony-Anhalt
02:59This now is a very difficult coalition puzzle to solve in Saxony-Anhalt
03:04And what led a lot of the voters to now vote for the AfD
03:08This is due to a campaign of the AfD for first-time voters
03:13And also for people who are usually non-voters
03:17And they also had significant gain with former CDU voters
03:21Who now decided to instead support the AfD
03:23This is, of course, a clear signal to Friedrich Merz and his party, the CDU
03:29Laura, the election is now over
03:31But the anger towards Chancellor Merz remains
03:35What does the result mean for Merz and his government going forward?
03:41This is, of course, a political disaster for Merz
03:44He is losing support from his party space
03:47And also from his coalition partner, the Social Democrats
03:50But he stated, or it has officially been said, that he will not resign
03:54However, the AfD's co-chair, Alice Weidel, stated that she expects Merz to step down before Christmas
04:01And that if the AfD would govern on a federal level, that they would cut the government's spending radically
04:06And that they would also start a major deportation campaign
04:10Looking at the weeks ahead, the government also faces a difficult situation in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern
04:15Where there will be state elections in just two weeks
04:18And the AfD is also right now leading the polls
04:22All right, Laura Fleischmann in Berlin
04:24Thank you very much
04:26And we stay in the German capital, where we are now joined by Günter Krings
04:31He is the vice chairman of the Christian Democratic Parliamentary Group in the Bundestag
04:36Good morning, sir
04:37Good morning
04:38So, to say the Christian Democrats lost yesterday would be an understatement
04:44It's a disaster
04:45Your party practically lost half of its voters
04:49All this on Chancellor Merz's watch
04:52Will he face personal consequences?
04:55It was a devastating result
04:57And that's certainly clear
04:58It was even worse than was expected
05:00Of course, on the one hand side
05:02There is a long-term trend in Saxony Anhalts
05:04From election to election
05:05The AfD did significantly better from the last state election
05:09Than the European election, federal election
05:11But still, of course, this result has to do with the perception of our policy in Berlin
05:16And it's also clear that one day after this election
05:20We will not talk about personnel
05:22But we have to talk about analyzing these results
05:25And we have to see clear what the message was sent to us
05:30And at least the perception of our reform course
05:32Is not in a way that we had the chance to win over voters
05:38Or to at least hold them
05:40And so that doesn't mean that the reform course is wrong
05:43But the perception and the credibility also of our party
05:46Is at a low
05:48Well, you elegantly evaded a straight answer on Friedrich Merz
05:53Again, how can he possibly exercise even a shred of authority
05:58After this election result?
05:59Wouldn't the party be better off without him at the helm?
06:03First of all, this is a state election
06:05Even though it has big federal policy implications
06:09It's not the right thing for our party
06:11We are a party that is a party of responsibility
06:13That has governed this country for decades
06:16And to talk about changing the chancellor
06:19Just one day after this election will not be the right thing
06:21But of course there will be talks also about
06:23How are we equipped
06:25And what will be our standing in the next weeks
06:29And there will be no taboos in this discussion
06:32But there's much more than the discussion about personnel
06:36It's about content
06:37It's about also how we communicate
06:39How we will win back our credibility
06:41So it's much broader than just the question of personnel
06:46And finally, will this election result
06:48Trigger a political course correction in Europe
06:52As the far right will unquestionably be emboldened?
06:56Certainly the far right feels emboldened
06:59It's certainly also a signal of alarm
07:01But it also should be perceived in Europe
07:04I mean, a significant part of the anger
07:07That the voters caused
07:10That caused the voters to vote for the AfD
07:13Comes from European decision
07:15So the European Union also should ask
07:17What did we contribute to this anger
07:20And what do we have to change?
07:23All right, Günther Krings
07:24Vice-Chairman of the Christian Democratic Parliamentary Group
07:26In the Bundestag
07:27Thank you very much for your time this morning
07:32U.S. Envoy Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner
07:35Arrived in Kiev yesterday
07:36As part of a renewed push for peace by Washington
07:39They spoke with President Volodymyr Zelensky
07:42About diplomatic ways to end the war
07:44The talks took place only a day
07:47After they met with President Putin in Moscow
07:49For more than three hours behind closed doors
07:52The meeting ended without announcements of any breakthroughs
07:56Our correspondent Sasha Vakulina knows more
07:59And she joins me now in the studio
08:01Good morning, Sasha
08:02So let's talk about the meeting in Kiev first
08:06What can you tell us?
08:08What's the latest?
08:08There has been no breakthrough
08:10Sadly from the meeting in Kiev
08:14With the envoy stating that
08:16The Russian President Vladimir Putin
08:19Is not willing to compromise on its maximalist demands
08:21Russia's demands from the very beginning
08:23Meaning that they're still demanding
08:25Ukraine to withdraw forces from its own territories
08:28And therefore Russia's war against Ukraine
08:31Is most likely set to continue into next winter
08:35In which case, Kiev will need more support
08:38Let's take a listen
08:41If the war continues into winter
08:43We are very much counting on the winter package
08:45Which I discussed in great details today
08:47With Steve, Jared and our European partners
08:52The most important thing about this visit
08:54And about those talks in Kiev
08:55Is the fact that they did take place
08:57As you said, for the first time
08:59Witkow and Kushner were in Kiev
09:00So many times it was postponed
09:03They were expected around Independence Day
09:05By the end of August in Kiev
09:07That didn't happen
09:08Same way as this visit was very shaky
09:11Until the very last minute
09:12With Russia targeting Kiev's airports
09:14With Witkow and Kushner
09:16Reportedly willing to fly to Kiev
09:19Despite Ukraine having its airspace closed
09:21Since February 2022
09:22Let's take a listen to Wladimir Zelensky
09:26The Russians have made it clear
09:27With their air attacks
09:28That from a security perspective
09:30The US invoice cannot land or use the plane
09:33Even though we had everything ready
09:35Our airports were operational
09:37Yeah, Sascha, you mentioned it
09:39It was the very first time
09:40That Trump's envoys, Witkow and Kushner
09:43Visited the Ukrainian capital
09:45But they have been in Moscow
09:46Many times, eight or nine times
09:48Or something like that
09:50But without yielding any sizable result
09:55Any success
09:56Is this time different?
09:58Not really
09:58But also all the talks
10:00Every time there are talks in Moscow
10:01They're very different
10:02For what we saw in Kiev
10:03Though there's never any sort of openness
10:06Regarding what happens
10:07Behind those closed doors
10:08There was no ever any presser
10:11Like the one we saw in Kiev on Sunday
10:14And also regarding the results of these talks
10:16They're rather confidential
10:17With just a couple of bits happening
10:19And, you know, us finding out about things
10:22But clearly all those visits
10:24Do mean that the conversations
10:27And the relations between the US envoy
10:28Specifically Steve Witkow
10:30With the Russian president
10:31Are quite deep
10:32Let's take a listen to what he said
10:34To Putin on Saturday
10:36First of all, President Putin
10:38Thank you so much for having us
10:40We were sitting outside just now
10:43Me, Jared and Carol
10:44And then Yuri joined us
10:45And we were all talking about
10:48When we retire
10:49We'll have all these incredible stories
10:52And incredible memories
10:53And yours will be right at the top
10:56Of it all
10:56Unclear whether they're going to be
10:58The next meeting
10:59Probably trilateral
11:00With the US, Ukraine
11:01And Russia, Stefan
11:03Yeah, well, that topic
11:04Will certainly not go away
11:06Anytime soon
11:07Sasha, thank you so much
11:09For bringing us up to speed
11:11The death of Ratko Mladic
11:13Was supposed to close
11:15One of the darkest chapters
11:16In the Balkans
11:17Instead, it has opened
11:19A new political battle in Serbia
11:21The funeral of the convicted
11:23Bosnian-Serb war criminal
11:25Will take place in Belgrade
11:26Later today
11:27But without state
11:28Or military honors
11:30Probably
11:31Senior EU officials
11:32Had warned last week
11:33That any glorification of Mladic
11:36Could undermine Serbia's relationship
11:38With Brussels
11:38And even derail its bid
11:41To become an EU member
11:42To learn more on this
11:44I'm joined by our correspondent
11:46Merit Gwyn
11:47Good morning, Merit
11:48Good morning, Stefan
11:48So, tell us why
11:51EU officials
11:52Have been raising
11:53The alarm over plans
11:56For Mladic's funeral
11:58Oh, Stefan
11:59As you know
12:00Ratko Mladic
12:00Often referred to as
12:02The butcher of Bosnia
12:03Is a convicted
12:04Bosnian-Serb war criminal
12:07Found guilty of genocide
12:09Crimes against humanity
12:11And his name
12:13Is essentially synonymous
12:14For many
12:14With one of the darkest periods
12:16In Europe's recent history
12:17Now, when he died
12:18In late August
12:19While serving
12:20A life sentence
12:21In The Hague
12:22The Serbian justice minister
12:24At that time
12:25Initially said
12:26That he would be buried
12:26With all the state
12:28And military honors
12:29Now, the official line
12:31Coming from Belgrade
12:32Now, is that
12:33That is not the case
12:34That the funeral
12:34Will happen later today
12:36Without state honors
12:37Without the presence
12:38Of official government figures
12:41But, Stefan
12:42Despite that
12:43And despite the president
12:44Of Serbia
12:45Aleksandar Vucic
12:46Not attending
12:47The funeral today
12:47And trying to distance himself
12:49From the justice minister's comments
12:51The optics
12:53And the imagery
12:54Coming out of Serbia
12:55Around the commemoration
12:57Of Mladic's death
12:57Has really hit a nerve here
13:00In Brussels
13:00We saw the body
13:01Of Mladic
13:02Transported from The Hague
13:04To Belgrade
13:04Last week
13:05Last Thursday
13:06In a government plane
13:07His coffin
13:08Draped in the Serbian flag
13:10In the presence
13:11Of a cabinet minister
13:13And the following day
13:14On Friday
13:15We know this was raised
13:16At a meeting
13:16Of EU ministers
13:17In Dublin
13:18And we heard
13:18From the EU's
13:20Commissioner
13:21For enlargement
13:22Marta Kos
13:22She issued
13:23A stern warning
13:25On social media
13:25I believe we can
13:26Look at that now
13:27She said
13:28The glorification
13:29Surrounding
13:30His Mladic's death
13:31Is incompatible
13:32With the values
13:33On which the EU path
13:34Is built
13:35The values
13:36That underpin
13:36Our common future
13:37Are not negotiable
13:39She then said
13:40In this context
13:40I have decided
13:42Not to proceed
13:42With my planned
13:43Visit to Serbia
13:44So Stefan
13:45I think the
13:46Commissioner
13:46For enlargement
13:47Cancelling
13:47Her planned trip
13:49To a EU
13:50Canada country
13:50Really speaks volumes
13:51About the extent
13:52Of the outrage
13:54That Brussels
13:54Has really felt
13:55Here in response
13:57To these events
13:57Yeah absolutely
13:58I mean the whole story
13:59Is pretty disturbing
14:01And you mentioned
14:02The optics
14:02Now we know
14:04There's not going
14:04To be a state
14:05Funeral
14:06No pomp and
14:08Circumstances here
14:09Is that enough
14:10To undo
14:12Some of the damage
14:13That has been done
14:14Already
14:14Well that's a good
14:15Question
14:15Stefan
14:16Because last week
14:17In fact we had
14:17Ministers
14:18The Belgian
14:18Foreign Minister
14:19Warning that
14:19Any state on us
14:21Would effectively
14:22You know
14:23See Serbia
14:25Backtrack on its path
14:26To become
14:26A EU member
14:27So that would have
14:28Really I think
14:29Triggered a really
14:30Firm response
14:31From the EU
14:31But I think
14:32It's fair to say
14:33That a lot of
14:33The damage
14:34Has already been
14:34Done because
14:35Of the optics
14:36Of this
14:37The commemoration
14:37That happened
14:38Over this weekend
14:39Was held
14:39At a state-owned
14:40Army house
14:41In Belgrade
14:42The justice minister
14:43Was present there
14:44We even saw
14:44The derby
14:46The football derby
14:46In Belgrade
14:47Last night
14:48Being held
14:48With a minute
14:49Of silence
14:49For Mladic
14:50So all this
14:51Imagery
14:52Really doesn't
14:52Help Serbia
14:53On its path
14:54To become
14:55A EU member
14:55And this is
14:56Already a very
14:57Tense relationship
14:58We know that
14:59Member states
15:00Are already
15:00Reluctant to open
15:01Or to progress
15:02Serbia on its path
15:04To become
15:04A EU member
15:05And one diplomat
15:06Confirming to
15:07Euronews last week
15:08In fact that
15:08Any commemoration
15:09Any glorification
15:11Around Mladic
15:11State honours
15:12Or not
15:13Would really be
15:14A setback
15:15For Belgrade
15:15On its bid
15:16To become
15:16A EU member
15:17All right
15:17Thank you so much
15:19For your insight
15:20Now there's a lot
15:21To discuss
15:22When the EU
15:23Agriculture ministers
15:24Meet in Dublin
15:25Today and tomorrow
15:26Europe is
15:27Recovering
15:28After a summer
15:29Of heat waves
15:30And droughts
15:31That have
15:31Devastated crops
15:32And left many
15:33Farmers facing
15:34Huge financial losses
15:35France has announced
15:36More than 1 billion
15:37Euros in aid
15:38For farmers
15:39So far
15:40Brussels has said
15:41EU farmers
15:41Can be compensated
15:43Through flexibilities
15:44In their strategic plans
15:45And via state aid
15:47Merit Gwynn sat down
15:48With the European
15:49Commissioner for Agriculture
15:50Christoph Hansen
15:51And started by asking him
15:53What more Brussels
15:54Could do
15:55Well first of all
15:56It has indeed
15:57Been a very challenging
15:58Summer
15:59And even the late spring
16:00Was already
16:00In many regions
16:02Heavily under pressure
16:03Because of climate effects
16:05Because of drought
16:06Because of wildfires
16:08And this is of course
16:09Putting a lot of pressure
16:10Because farmers
16:11Are losing
16:12Their harvests
16:13Partly at least
16:14Then of course
16:15Our farmers
16:16Were as well
16:17Our best line of defense
16:18Or the first line of defense
16:19For wildfires
16:20Because with their tanks
16:21With their machinery
16:22They were on the spot
16:24To help our firefighters
16:26And now comes of course
16:27The financial aspect of it
16:29They have liquidity problems
16:31And that is why
16:33We are helping them
17:03I wrote a letter as well
17:05And the situation
17:05Is far from being over
17:06You mention the liquidity problem
17:09And this obviously comes
17:10When we also have a fertilizer
17:11And fuel cost crisis
17:13It seems like there's
17:14A perfect storm here
17:15For farmers
17:15Are you confident
17:16You're doing enough
17:17Because there seems to be
17:18Flexibilities in current programs
17:20But no new cash
17:22Which is what many farmers
17:23Are calling for
17:23The farmers know exactly
17:25That the cash is limited
17:26We will of course have
17:28For the next year
17:30We have the agricultural reserve
17:31450 million
17:32That we can use
17:33I think we need as well
17:34To speak about solidarity
17:37In what is produced currently
17:39Because often the consumers
17:41Want the perfect apple
17:42The perfect potato
17:43This might not be the case this year
17:45And as well
17:47Retailers expect a certain quality
17:49And I think there
17:50We need to think differently as well
17:51To find new solutions
17:53So that the product
17:54Can still be sold
17:55That is a lot
17:57What can be done
17:58A lot of additional money
17:59Of course we know
18:00This is difficult
18:02I have to ask you
18:03About the situation in Ukraine
18:04Because we know
18:05They are facing
18:05Big difficulties
18:06Exporting their grains
18:08Due to increased
18:08Russian attacks
18:10On Black Sea
18:11Infrastructure and ports
18:13What can the EU do here
18:14To help find a solution
18:17For Kiev
18:18Well of course
18:19Ukraine is not
18:20The only one concerned
18:22Because in the end
18:23They are as well
18:24Heavily attacking
18:25Russian infrastructure
18:26And that has an effect
18:27As well
18:27But nonetheless
18:29I think we have
18:30Meanwhile an experience
18:31Of helping Ukraine
18:33Getting their grains
18:34To the world
18:35To get to their
18:36Traditional markets
18:37The solidarity lanes
18:39Is one part of it
18:40But I think we have as well
18:41To look into
18:44The Danube corridor
18:46Even though we know
18:47That waters
18:48Have been quite down
18:49If I may on the solidarity lanes
18:51Because this has been a very
18:52Political issue
18:53In the past
18:54We know
18:54Member states
18:55Have been protesting
18:56Against this
18:57Do you see room
18:58To expand those lanes?
19:00I think what needs
19:00To be avoided
19:01Is that we had
19:03During the autonomous
19:04Trade measures
19:05And temporary liberalization
19:07And this liberalization
19:08Led to disruptions
19:10Led to a price decrease
19:12And as well
19:12Leakage of grains
19:15For example
19:16That were supposed
19:16To go through Europe
19:17But not to leak
19:18Into the market
19:20I think we have
19:21Meanwhile as well
19:22Very clear experience
19:23What went wrong
19:25Back in time
19:25And this needs
19:27To be addressed
19:28For future
19:29Exports of Ukraine
19:30Through Europe
19:32But that is not
19:33Meant for the European market
19:37All right
19:37That does it for us today
19:39Thank you for watching
19:40I'm Stefan Grobe
19:41Take care
19:42And see you tomorrow
19:50Good night
19:52Good night
19:52Good night
19:53Good night
