00:00European Union leaders have met with Chinese President Xi Jinping and other top officials
00:05at a one-day summit to talk about trade and other global issues.
00:11Firefighters in Cyprus are battling the country's largest wildfires in over 50 years,
00:16which caused major destruction and claimed the lives of two.
00:20At recent peace talks with Russia, Ukraine's delegation stressed their top priority was a
00:25meeting between the Ukrainian and Russian presidents as well as a real ceasefire.
00:32European Union leaders have met with Chinese President Xi Jinping and other top officials
00:37at a one-day summit in Beijing. They discuss climate cooperation and global conflicts,
00:43but most importantly the massive trade deficit with China.
00:47Xi called on China and Europe to deepen cooperation and mutual trust to provide stability,
00:54but Commission President Ursula von der Leyen pointed out that cooperation needs to be
00:58mutual beneficial and urged for a more balanced relationship with Beijing.
01:03Meanwhile, European Council President Antonio Costa called on China to use its influence over Russia
01:10to bring an end to the war in Ukraine. Von der Leyen and Costa were also expected to raise concerns
01:16over Chinese cyberattacks and espionage, its restrictions on the exports of rare earth minerals
01:22and human rights issues in Xinjiang, Tibet and Hong Kong. The talks were initially scheduled for two days.
01:29However, they were scaled back amid economic uncertainty, the wars in the Middle East and Ukraine,
01:35and the threat of U.S. tariffs. Europe is also treading carefully, avoiding to move too closely
01:41at China in order not to antagonize U.S. President Donald Trump, which further complicated the summit.
01:47Firefighters in Cyprus are battling the country's largest wildfires in over 50 years. The fires caused
01:58the destruction of many homes as well as the evacuation of dozens of villages. Two people were
02:04also found dead in a burnt-out car on Wednesday night. The wildfires scorched at least 120 square
02:13kilometers of land and have destroyed just over one percent of the island's land mass.
02:20The blaze continued to rage into Thursday. A fire department spokesperson warned that strong winds
02:26and intense heat may further worsen the situation, which he said could potentially become very dangerous.
02:34All the cause of the fire is still being investigated. The chief fire officer told local media eyewitnesses
02:40who called the fire service had reported arsonists had caused the fire to break out at a landfill.
02:52At their third round of recent peace talks with Russia, Ukraine's delegation stressed their top
02:57priority was a meeting between the Ukrainian and Russian presidents, as well as a real ceasefire.
03:03Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky has insisted that lower-level delegations like the ones at the talks
03:13in Istanbul don't have the political heft to stop the fighting.
03:17Ukraine keeps insisting on a full and unconditional ceasefire as a necessary basis for effective diplomacy.
03:26We are ready for a ceasefire now and to start substantive peace negotiations and it is up to other
03:34side to accept this basic step towards peace. Russian President Vladimir Putin has previously spurned
03:41Zelensky's offers of a face-to-face meeting. Two previous rounds of peace talks in May and June led to a
03:49series of exchanges of prisoners of war and the bodies of fallen soldiers, but produced no other agreements.
04:02The city of Odessa in southern Ukraine was the target of a major Russian drone attack on Wednesday
04:07night. The attack damaged several historic monuments in the old town, including UNESCO-protected landmarks
04:13such as the renowned Privos market. A nine-storey residential building was also struck and severely damaged,
04:22injuring at least four people. Dozens of residents had to be evacuated. Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelensky
04:30denounced the attack, pointing to the fact it had come just a day after the third round of peace negotiations
04:36between Ukraine and Russia, which were held in Istanbul. The peace talks resulted in little progress,
04:43but Kiev and Moscow did agree to yet another prisoner exchange. Zelensky added that Russia also
04:50launched attacks at other regions, including at the Cherkassy, Zaporizhia and Kharkiv regions.
04:57In Kharkiv, a massive attack resulted in the death of three people and at least 33 were wounded.
05:05Meanwhile, a Ukrainian drone struck an oil depot in Sirius near the Russian city of Sochi. The Russian
05:11Defense Ministry claimed that they shot down 42 Ukrainian drones overnight.
05:20A Russian passenger plane carrying 49 people has crashed, killing all on board after it disappeared
05:26off the radar over the Amur region in the country's far east. According to authorities, air traffic
05:32controllers lost contact with a passenger plane operated by Siberia-based airline when it was
05:38attempting a second approach as it reached its destination.
05:41The crash was originally on board. There were 48 people on board. The plane followed
05:46on the road to Khabarovsk-Blagovic and Tynda. When the plane carried on the plane with a Mi-8 plane,
05:52in a difficult place, on the coast of the mountain, there was a fuselage of the plane. The plane
05:57was on the road. The plane was on the road. The plane was on the road. The plane was on the road. The plane was on the road.
05:59The plane was on the road. The plane was on the road. The plane was on the road. The plane was on the road.
06:06The crash comes as aviation safety concerns grew in Russia as some long-range drone attacks by Kyiv
06:13have sparked travel chaos at Moscow's airports. Russia's Transport Investigative Committee says it
06:19has launched a criminal probe to determine the exact cause of the crash.
06:29So the Buckingham Knicks album is, for music fans especially that grew up in the 70s,
06:50it's one of those records that everybody has heard about, but not that many people have actually
06:58heard. It's never been on a streaming service, but it had this iconic cover that everybody recognized.
07:06For so many people, it's this kind of great lost album that they've always wanted to hear,
07:21and they're finally going to get a chance to.
07:24Columbia University says it has reached a deal with the Trump administration to pay more than $220
07:40million to restore federal funding cut over alleged campus anti-Semitism.
07:45The university had already lost $400 million in grants and risked losing billions more.
07:53Under the agreement, Columbia will pay $200 million over three years, plus $21 million to
08:00settle claims of civil rights violations against Jewish employees after Hamas' October 7 attack on Israel.
08:08The Trump administration said it cut funding over the university's failure to curb campus anti-Semitism
08:13during the Israel-Hamas war.
08:17Columbia was one of the first targets of President Trump's crackdown on pro-Palestinian campus protests.
08:24He accused the university of allowing harassment of Jewish students.
08:29But protest leaders and some Jewish students say the demonstrations were not anti-Semitic.
08:34They say they were protesting the Israeli government and the war on Gaza.
08:43They say the againstays native folk, throughout William than Actually, Mr K lonely.
08:45It seems to have to go there.
08:46So it seems to � uh that at a time, O Dijkertal Center walked into焙 tattoos indeed.
08:47And to the second edit that came to protect.
08:48Let us gather they were interesting about the Navy.
08:50And I feel very interested in the sound of this project that's付いて

09:11those days of great joy, when I see this military truck with the soldiers
09:19there behind, they are standing with the wingers in the air, when I see the
09:24men doing the V da Vitória. The other officer in the front, in the cabin,
09:28the Carrinha, also doing the V da Vitória. For me, it is a
09:35photograph, from the point of view of the aesthetic, of the narrative, perfect. And I think that
09:42there is nothing that is more or less than anything that is less.
09:46This was the arrival of the 1st of the V de Tropas in Guinea. And it was incredible.
09:52The people who were waiting for the soldiers, and it was also notable how the soldiers
09:58brought up a t-shirt from Amilcar Cabral and P.A.I.G.C., those with whom they had been
10:05to fight, for menores do cinto, with two pistolas cruzadas, and then also brought
10:12animals, selvages, which was very normal at that time, and people.
10:20This photograph I think is a portrait of what was the Portuguese people.
10:24One of the photographs that I think is this of Carlos Paredes, already made in 1982, but in
10:33which Carlos Paredes, although famous and protagonists of the Revolution, continued to work with
10:40manga of alpaca in the Hospital of São José. But then we have more figures. One that is
10:45Amália, which is not much a figure of 25 April. As you know, she even went to
10:52Tachos contra a Revolução, but the truth is that she integrated very well in what was
10:58that survived to 25 April. A sua obra survived. Acabou por ser adotada, also, by those
11:06cantores who played and sang the ballads of intervention. We have here these four photographs.
11:17This is one of the last ones that were made to Álvaro Cunhal. Then we have Vasco Gonçalves,
11:23which I photographed in his house, just after the madness of the Prec. O Zé Saramago, a figure that I never
11:31sympathizei from the point of view of the personal view. And we have with Marcelo Rebelo Sousa,
11:37in his house, with Fernando Pessoa as moldura.
