02:08Volodymyr Zelenskyy said he was in the
02:17so that we have to establish the accuracy of which countries are drones,
02:23which are in close to the region.
02:28We don't have solid and clear results to provide the conviction
02:33to which they are out of the country,
02:35but the logic of this is what I also said,
02:39that the result is in the use of the RFA.
02:47As tens of thousands of protesters filled the streets of Paris on Tuesday,
02:52largely peaceful demonstrations escalated into violence later in the day.
02:57As you can see behind me, what started off as a peaceful demonstration in Paris today
03:02has once again descended into scenes of violence,
03:06as protesters and possible rioters, we can't tell you yet,
03:10clash with law enforcement, authorities with police,
03:13as you can see they are charging at present to disperse protesters.

03:47Rights groups have slammed law enforcement officers,
03:51accusing them of using brutal methods against children.
03:55We've seen police fire smoke grenades, tear gas, stun grenades.
04:02Although police continue to use stun grenades, the government suspended the use of a specific type
04:08after a 15-year-old pupil lost his hand during a police intervention outside a school in northern France on
04:15the 5th of October.
04:16What we've observed in our coverage so far is that many protesters march peacefully,
04:21but those we questioned on the margins of Tuesday's clashes said they believe that violence can be a legitimate response
04:28to police brutality.
04:30If we manifest pacifically, nothing will change.
04:33Well, there are people who attack the police, who attack the police,
04:37they riposte with the acrymogen grenades.
04:39Well, I've been surprised once again, that's my eyes.
04:42I've got to say that it's my eyes.
04:43It's the education that rebels, the students and the teachers.
04:46And there's absolutely no response and no waiting behind,
04:51except for the police's violence.
04:53There's also violence in the face, but we don't listen to them.

05:34German Chancellor Friedrich Merz, Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni and Belgian Prime Minister Bart de Weyver
05:40have proposed an emergency break in a letter sent on Monday to European Council President Antonio Costa seen by Euronews.
05:48The proposed mechanism would act as a last resort and additional safeguard against unnecessary bureaucratic costs stemming from new EU
05:58laws.
05:59Its modalities and scope remain unclear with the issue expected to be discussed at Thursday's EU Leaders Summit in Brussels,
06:06according to diplomatic sources.

07:43.4 billion euros
07:44in exchange for reforms and investment plans.
07:47If the evaluation is positive, Budapest could gain access to the rest of the money by the end of the
07:53year.

09:08did not do during their visit in November 2007.
