Europe Today: Metsola exclusively on Euronews as Carney addresses EU Parliament amid Trump's tariff threat

Maria Tadeo reports from Strasbourg as Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney takes the floor at the European Parliament this morning, one day after EU Commission President Ursula von der Leyen floated the idea of making Canada the EU's inaugural associate member. President Trump dismissed von der Leyen's proposal as "laughable" and warned of "very serious tariffs" if the plan were to move forward.

We are granted an exclusive interview with European Parliament President Roberta Metsola, who shares her thoughts on von der Leyen's proposal and President Trump's State of the Union address from the previous evening. We also gather reactions to the State of the Union speech from European Commissioners Valdis Dombrovskis, Maroš Šefčovič, Wopke Hoekstra, and Andrius Kubilius, as well as from MEP David McAllister of the European People's Party from Germany.

Jorge Liboreiro provides an analysis on whether President Trump's speech will have any significant impact, questions why von der Leyen did not announce any new measures regarding Ukraine support or Russia sanctions despite expectations, and discusses the subsequent steps for her after delivering her most significant speech of the year.

Maria Tadeo returns to Strasbourg to discuss the State of the Union speech and the anticipation leading up to Mark Carney's address to the Parliament. Interviews with David McAllister, a Member of the European Parliament from the European People's Party in Germany, are also featured. You can catch Euronews' anchors Méabh McMahoon and Stefan Grobe live on TV and the Euronews website, as well as on digital platforms (YouTube, Facebook, X, and Instagram), every weekday at 8 am Brussels time.
