00:13Good morning, it's Thursday, November 5th, you're watching Euronews and this is Europe
00:20Today.
00:21Our top stories.
00:23Democrats seized control of the US Congress in yesterday's midterm elections, capturing
00:28both the Senate, where they gained at least seven seats, and the House of Representatives.
00:33It was a stunning nationwide rejection of Donald Trump, set to put the brakes on the
00:38final two years of his presidency.
00:40The Democratic landslide will give the party the power to block legislation, launch broad
00:45investigations into Trump's administration and torpedo his judicial and senior government
00:50appointments.
00:51A cyber attack on several blood banks in France sought to raise temperatures to extremely
00:57high levels, but was thwarted before it could do any damage to blood products or harm patients
01:03in hospitals.
01:04The incident comes after supermarkets and several European countries reported that their fridges
01:09and freezers warmed up after they were remotely taken over, resulting in tons of spoiled food
01:15at a total cost of millions of euros.
01:18And Iranian lawmakers have threatened missile strikes on European countries hosting US military
01:24bases, including Germany and Italy.
01:27Europe's assistance to America for an attack on Iran would have consequences, a member of
01:32the country's National Security Committee told Euronews.
01:35Meanwhile, government supporters hung a banner outside the German embassy in Tehran, saying
01:41Europe will pay the price for supporting Israel.
01:45Welcome to the program.
01:46I'm Stefan Grobe.
01:47The 2026 midterms will go down as one of the most sweeping repudiations of a sitting president
01:54in modern American history.
01:56Republican losses were so deep, so wide, so everywhere that it would be weird to see this
02:03as anything but a massive repudiation of Trump, his agenda, his style, his rhetoric and his
02:09presidency.
02:10Republicans are left with two more years of riding a very unpopular leader managing a very
02:16unpopular war.
02:17Will this kill the party of Reagan and Bush for years to come?
02:21Joining me now from Washington is political analyst and bestselling author Eric Hamm.
02:26Good morning to you.
02:28It's good to be here.
02:29Thanks so much for having me.
02:30So Trump lost much of his power and influence, but a trapped and embarrassed Trump could be even
02:36more unpredictable.
02:37How do you think he's going to react?
02:40That is a really good question.
02:42We do know that President Donald Trump already is coming across as conservatory.
02:47However, as you say, he does have two years left in office, and we know President Donald
02:52Trump likes to be the center of attention.
02:55And so I think he will use these last two years to do everything he can to make sure that
03:01he is
03:01at the forefront, even if it is for good or even for bad.
03:05Republicans in Congress will be a mostly old and mostly white minority caucus facing a younger
03:12and more diverse Democratic majority.
03:14Are Republicans now staring down potentially years of political insignificance?
03:20Well, look, if you go back to 2024, President Donald Trump made tremendous strides and inroads
03:26with African-American voters, Latino voters, and young people.
03:30Those were seen as the third rail of politics that were always seen as no-go zones for Republicans.
03:36However, President Donald Trump was able to break into those key communities, and many
03:42thought that that would lay the groundwork for a generation of new Republicans to submit
03:47their gains for years to come.
03:49However, we see just two years later, Democrats have actually clawed those gains back.
03:53And what it makes clear is these are voters that are up for grabs.
03:57And what people want more than anything are results.
04:00And look, now we're heading into the all-important 2028 presidential election where the White House
04:06now is in line.
04:07And so voters have to make, I mean, so these lawmakers now are on the, they are auditioning
04:14for that, and they have to actually make gains in order to keep those voters in line.
04:19Eric, let's talk about Texas for a second, where Republicans lost the races for senator, governor,
04:25attorney general, lieutenant governor, even railroad commissioner, and numerous congressional
04:30seats.
04:30What does this tell us about the presidential election in 2028?
04:35Well, many now believe that Texas could be in play.
04:38We're talking in an electoral-rich state that has always been the anchor of Republican presidential
04:44politics.
04:45Now, if Democrats can actually flip Texas and they believe that they can, this could actually
04:51shape the presidential election and put a massive, massive, a number of electoral votes in the
04:57hands of Democrats.
04:58But Republicans are not going to go down without a fight.
05:01I think they are going to do everything they can to actually swing Texas back.
05:06But again, it will depend largely on how the new governor and, of course, a new Democratic
05:12control Congress responds to economic anxiety throughout the country.
05:16All right.
05:17Political analyst Eric Hamm, thank you very much for your insights.
05:21The U.S. midterm elections were more than a political verdict on Donald Trump.
05:26They could also reshape the economic landscape of the world's largest economy.
05:31From Wall Street to the dollar, from interest rates to global trade, investors are watching
05:36closely what's going to happen now that Trump is weakened and what that means for their money.
05:42So what should investors expect, especially in Europe?
05:45Earlier, I spoke to Xavier Volatier, head of Transatlantic Private Wealth, the U.S.
05:51branch of the French Banque Transatlantique.
05:53And I wanted to know whether the midterms could be a game changer for European investors.
05:58Here's what he said.
05:59The Congress will probably try to work things around AI, especially that's the matter that
06:07we're most heard of.
06:10And that's probably the biggest changes that we're going to see in the upcoming weeks and
06:15months compared to the previous Congress we had here in the U.S.
06:19That should not be too much of a difference.
06:24I mean, the biggest difference we experienced the last few years were regarding the visas.
06:29I don't see many changes there, at least for the very next time we're going to see that
06:38in the next few months, I mean.
06:39So after that blue democratic wave, markets could reassess growth expectations, bond yields
06:47and the dollar's trajectory.
06:49What would be the repercussions of such developments for Europe?
06:53Obviously, we saw that overnight.
06:55I think it's already turning around a little bit.
06:58And the main repercussion for Europe, I guess it's going back to your previous question also,
07:04is again, we see a tremendous growth in the AI sector.
07:08And I think it's going to keep going for many years.
07:11And we experienced that as a wealth management team here in the U.S., affiliated to a French
07:18bank, as you know.
07:20We experienced more and more demand from U.S. clients willing to invest in Europe on a more
07:26personal side, obviously.
07:28But I think that's dragging a lot of growth in Europe also, especially in real estate.
07:35And the Republicans lost the election partly because of deep-seated economic insecurity.
07:42Is American optimism still the driving force behind their economy?
07:48Definitely.
07:49Definitely.
07:51I mean, I've been here for now 10 years.
07:53I studied here a little bit.
07:55I know you live here also.
07:57And I think that's the key component of the U.S.
08:01I mean, Americans stay optimists.
08:04And that's the main difference I experience every time I go back to Europe.
08:08Honestly, that's the thing that struck me every time.
08:11And I think that even if we are facing tough time here in the U.S. on inflation again, still,
08:18I mean, people are able to find jobs.
08:20Their unemployment rate is still very low.
08:22And that contributes to that optimism.
08:26And what would you advise a European investor who is heavily exposed to U.S. markets?
08:32Stay the course, hedge against political risk or diversify?
08:37I guess the key, as always, is diversification.
08:40You know, you experienced that the other way around two years ago when we saw tremendous
08:46requests from U.S. investors to diversify in currency, in assets, where we all witnesses
08:55the European market going up even, you know, in a larger number than U.S. markets last year.
09:02And I think that's also true the other way around.
09:06Diversification will always take the key.
09:12Xavier Volatier, head of Transatlantic Private Wealth in New York.
09:17Europe is also still digesting yesterday's landslide results from the U.S. midterm elections
09:22and what it all might mean for Europe and the war in Ukraine.
09:26Efforts to bring the war to an end have regained ground in recent weeks,
09:30with the Finnish president and Norwegian prime minister even holding talks with Russian president Vladimir Putin.
09:36Let's bring in our NATO correspondent Shona Murray, who is in Helsinki,
09:40where she's been talking to several officials about what might lie ahead.
09:45Good morning, Shona.
09:46Firstly, what's the reaction been to the sweeping win for the Democrats?
09:53Well, good morning, Stefan.
09:54And of course, it's very early to say exactly what will happen.
09:57But there is a bit of optimism that perhaps Donald Trump, because of the nature of the win,
10:02would have to listen to Congress more.
10:04And maybe things like the Lindsey Graham Act, which applies sanctions on Russia,
10:08that that might be implemented.
10:09Or, crucially, I heard to speak to some officials close to the foreign policy brief,
10:14who say that perhaps there will be a reshuffle in the White House administration,
10:17and you could see Pete Hegsett, the current Secretary of War or of Defense,
10:22that he might be removed and replaced.
10:23And he has a very confrontational relationship with Europe.
10:25So that's some of the optimism.
10:27Stefan?
10:28I understand there's another round of talks today on Ukraine.
10:33What can we expect here?
10:37Well, indeed, those talks are a prelude to next week's talks between Russia, Ukraine,
10:42and the U.S. in Abu Dhabi.
10:43Now, they're technical and political.
10:45And what I heard from NATO allies just this morning is that one of the discussions
10:49will be the urgent need for Ukraine to have access to Patriot interceptor missiles.
10:53There's a major stockpile shortage of these.
10:56And Sakur, the NATO chief military officer, is calling for seven countries within NATO
11:01to give them to Ukraine immediately.
11:03But those countries are resisting, because unless they can get guarantees of replenishment
11:08by the United States, that guarantee isn't quite there.
11:11So that's really where we're talking about when it comes to interceptors.
11:14But of course, there's political discussions about ending the war.
11:17And we know that, as you mentioned earlier, the president, Stubb, here of Finland,
11:21alongside the Norwegian prime minister, held a talk with Putin just a few days ago,
11:26a 90-minute conversation.
11:27There is belief that maybe there could be a ceasefire or potentially a prisoner swap.
11:32But that's really what the hope is for the next round of discussions.
11:35It's not really going to be an end.
11:37However, there will be talks about post-security guarantees, post-war security guarantees.
11:43And in a few weeks, we'll also see Marco Rubio, the U.S. Secretary of State,
11:48coming to Brussels to meet his NATO allies.
11:50So that will be a probably key moment to see what the future of in relation to this administration
11:55and relations with Europe will be.
11:57Stefan?
11:58All right, Shona Murray in Helsinki.
12:00Thank you very much.
12:01Reza Pahlavi, son of the last Iranian Shah and one of the main leaders of the opposition
12:07to the Tehran regime, is in Brussels this week to lobby for more sanctions and economic
12:13pressure on Iran.
12:14Yesterday, he met several members of the European Parliament.
12:18At a press conference, he called on the EU to show the same resolve as it has toward Russian
12:23President Vladimir Putin by uncovering hidden assets and freezing illegal assets linked to
12:30the regime.
12:31Afterwards, he spoke to Euronews' Vincenzo Genovese, who asked him about the changes in
12:36Washington.
12:36Take a listen.
12:38There are many Democrats in America who also believe that the Iranian regime is a major
12:43problem.
12:43It threatens national security for the U.S. and their interests, but also look at the region
12:48and the consequences of this regime to continue a policy of blackmail by taking hostages or
12:53disturbing maritime traffic through its proxies and helping the Houthis in the conflict
12:58that exists right now in the other straits.
13:00So ultimately, whether or not the conclusion is that the job needs to be finished may be
13:05a question that they all have to explore irrespective of the composition now of the House and the
13:10Senate back in the U.S.
13:11So my ask from the EU countries is irrespective of your own political compositions, the cause
13:19of liberty and the cause of freedom in Iran and what will lead to ultimate stability as
13:24opposed to instability depends ultimately on Iranians be able to free themselves from
13:28this regime.
13:29And that should be their main policy focus, but also what can concretely be done to actually
13:34be an element that adds more pressure on the regime that could be extending economic
13:39sanctions, but parallel to that also have more direct support for the Iranian people, which
13:45we believe in that momentum will cause even more defections from the regime.
13:49And that's what will lead ultimately to the regime's collapse and the liberalization of
13:52Iran.
13:53But the strikes against the regime caused the response of the regime, the closing of the
13:58Strait of Hormuz, which sparked a spike in the energy price, which is one of the main
14:04warning for Europeans.
14:05What's your message to Europeans about that?
14:08The message is that when the animal is wounded and will seek revenge, do allow it to continue
14:14to live.
14:14And that's exactly what's at stake here.
14:17This regime has shown that it's willing to go all the way for its own survival, not just
14:22by silencing its own citizenry, but by now not only threatening maritime traffic, but attacking
14:29with missile attacks countries in the area and perhaps even take action beyond that.
14:33That you simply cannot allow this kind of terrorist regime continue to survive and exist.
14:39And you know, most important factor in this are the people of Iran themselves who have
14:43risked their lives and are willing to die for the cause of freedom.
14:46Why not for once after 47 years abandon the idea of appeasement and negotiations, thinking
14:52that that will offer you a guarantee of stability and bet on the Iranian people as the element
14:58that will bring in the element of stability?
15:00Because we are committed to the same values of liberty and freedom as you are and enjoying
15:04it here in Europe.
15:05This regime doesn't.
15:06This regime executes everybody that stands for human rights and freedom in Iran.
15:10Europe has a tradition of standing with democracy and freedom.
15:13Why not today recognize that this regime will never be a reliable partner?
15:18It's only trying to buy time, take advantage of weakness in leadership and decision-making,
15:24whereas people every day are risking life and limb to say, we are your solution.
15:29Why don't you come to our help?
15:30Because we are going to fight the fight.
15:32Help us get to a point that we can securely come back to the streets and reclaim our country.
15:37This is the specific elements that will make a difference in how soon Iran can be liberated,
15:42as opposed to drag the conflict even further.
15:48Reza Pahlavi, speaking to Vincenzo Genovese.
15:51A new warning about Europe's vulnerability to cyberattacks.
15:56From supermarket refrigeration systems across the continent to blood bank facilities in France,
16:01hackers are increasingly targeting the digital systems that keep our societies running
16:06and potentially putting lives at risk.
16:09Is this just cybercrime, or are we witnessing a new front in hybrid warfare against Europe?
16:15Joining me now is Professor Kevin Caron, cybersecurity expert at Ulster University in the UK.
16:20Good morning to you.
16:22Good morning.
16:23So, what exactly are hackers doing?
16:26How can someone sitting behind a computer remotely take control of a supermarket's
16:31refrigerators or blood bank's cooling systems?
16:36Yes, these operational technology is becoming more common, especially in the wake of COVID,
16:44where a lot of technicians were not able to travel to remote sites.
16:48Therefore, it seemed to be easier to install remote monitoring systems as well,
16:54which can be logged into remotely.
16:56You're able to check the temperature, able to control the temperature.
16:59And, of course, these fridges, again, need evaporation circuits turned on daily, actually,
17:05to run so that the fridge doesn't become iced up, of course.
17:10Now, you know, on paper, it's a good idea, of course, but the fact is these were very weak.
17:17The controllers that are used to be able to log into from anywhere in the world,
17:22that one of them, for instance, doesn't have any updates for basically 10 years.
17:28The other one, for five years.
17:30The flaws have been known for a number of years, the way that you can log in remotely
17:35without even needing to authenticate.
17:38And yet, of course, a few last month in France, again, fridges were attacked.
17:43And then this week, fridges were attacked again.
17:46So, lessons were not learned the first time.
17:49On this note, so supermarket refrigerators are hardly considered critical infrastructure,
17:55yet the failure can cause millions of euros and losses.
17:59Have companies underestimated the cybersecurity risks of everyday technology?
18:06Unfortunately, it seems not.
18:09People have to consider, and companies, of course,
18:12you know, does anything that can be connected to the Internet, should it be?
18:16In cases like this, best practice in cybersecurity was not handled.
18:22Quite often, the default passwords were never changed again.
18:27They didn't use any kind of what we call a VPN for good practice to access these units as well.
18:34So, in fact, there were so many things wrong.
18:37And it is not a sophisticated attack.
18:40In this case, AI was not used.
18:44But it's worth noting, in the last week, we have seen a dramatic rise in cyberattacks, as we speak.
18:53Unprecedented, actually.
18:56We have this common database, which is shared around the world by all the technology companies.
19:01Whenever an exploit is found, like in this case, this would have been recorded many years ago,
19:06it goes into a database, 10 years ago, this database, the average number of per month of exploits that were
19:13found was about 30 to 40.
19:16Last month, this common vulnerable exploitation database added a new 17,060 attacks.
19:28All right, Kevin Curran, Professor for Cybersecurity at Ulster University.
19:32Thank you for helping us understand the issue.
19:34And that does it for us today.
19:38I'm Stefan Grobe.
19:39Take care and see you tomorrow.
19:48Take care and see you tomorrow.
