Published on 4 November 2026 – 16:59 GMT+1 As the Thélyson Orélien case, in which he is accused of having used AI for his novel ”C’était ça ou mourir”, shakes the literary world, the Goncourt Prize winner admitted on France Inter that he had turned to artificial intelligence “three times” while writing his book. Enough to reignite the debate on AI? Philippe Jaenada said he first used it to slip in a sentence written by ChatGPT, in order to “play with the reader”. He only revealed this sentence to the Goncourt jurors on Tuesday. “If it comes out, I know…
Mao did not elaborate on which topics the leaders would cover if they convene, amid fears in Europe that talks on ending the war in Ukraine could take place without Kyiv or European capitals at the table. Trump last month indicated interest in discussing “denuclearization” in a trilateral meeting, but “not so much” Ukraine. China hasn’t commented on what would be on the agenda, although German President Frank-Walter Steinmeier said Xi rejected the idea of discussing Ukraine in that format when both leaders spoke last week. Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov said that such a meeting would be “appropriate and very…
Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan told Euronews that his country’s strategy is to diversify and balance its foreign relations to pursue its national interests, as the current political and economic momentum in the South Caucasus brings the region a “totally new global role”. During an interview at Euronews’ Enlargement Summit on Tuesday, Pashinyan said that the “South Caucasus is a region with differences, but with common interests and there can be common views and strategies as well”, which led the region’s countries to establish relations which “will open up the regional infrastructure connectivity.” “The need to overcome the global supply…
“No matter how AI may be used in a parliament, the responsibility is still [with] those who are elected,” she said. Secretary-General Alessandro Chiocchetti said at the same event that Parliament is building its own AI tool for sensitive work, hosted on its internal infrastructure. As POLITICO reported in July, commercial AI models, such as ChatGPT, Claude and Meta’s Llama, can still be used for less sensitive tasks. Parliament officials have warned of a surge in AI-written amendments, including some that reference laws that don’t exist. Chiocchetti cited the case of an MEP who turned to AI for legal advice…
By Babak Kamiar & Euronews Persian Published on 4 November 2026 – 11:03 GMT+1•Updated 14:16 Iranian lawmakers have threatened missile strikes on European countries hosting US military bases, as state-run media warned on Wednesday that any renewed confrontation with the US could reach “the heart of Europe”. “If America uses its bases in Europe, including in Italy and Germany, Iran’s missiles will be fired towards Europe,” Ahmad Bakhshayesh Ardestani, a member of parliament’s National Security Committee, told Euronews. “In the two previous wars we did not do this, but this time we will not let Europe’s assistance to America for an attack on…
The incident appears linked to a fresh wave of cyberattacks on supermarket refrigerators across Europe, which forced stores to throw out spoiled food. That wave came just weeks after French supermarkets were first hit by a cyberattack that also hit refrigerators. French media reports said refrigeration company Coolworld is the supplier to EFS. The company said in a statement that it’s aware of the incident and that it “concerns a component supplied by a third-party provider and not directly controlled by Coolworld.” It said only a “limited number” of its units were affected. In the attacks on supermarkets, refrigerator defrost…
The opinions expressed in this article are those of the author and do not represent in any way the editorial position of Euronews. The midterm elections curb Donald Trump’s domestic power. But that does not automatically mean a weaker US president. On the contrary: if Congress restricts what he can do at home, Trump is likely to show his power even more in the areas where presidents traditionally have greater freedom to act, in foreign, trade and security policy. For Europe, the most difficult two years of his second term may only be beginning now. The midterms are first and…
Eurozone inflation rose to 4% in October, its highest level in more than three years, as soaring energy bills kept pushing up the cost of living across the bloc. The flash estimate from Eurostat showed annual inflation climbing from 3.8% in September, exactly in line with the 4% economists had expected. Prices rose 0.4% in October alone compared with the previous month. It is the highest reading since September 2023, when inflation ran at 4.3%. It also means prices are now rising at twice the pace of the European Central Bank’s 2% target. Core inflation, which strips out energy, food,…
It’s been a bruising night for Donald Trump at the midterm elections – losing both the house and the senate – but what does it mean for Britain? In a special edition, Sam Coates and Anne McElvoy hear from a variety of experts – on both sides of the Atlantic – as the balance of power shifts in Washington. So where does the president go from here – will he double down or change course? Could he relaunch an offensive in Iran? What will happen to the world economy? And could the fallout fundamentally reshape Britain’s relationship with its clo
Germany is considering withdrawing as host of the 2027 Ice Hockey World Championship after multiple European federations said they would refuse to play Russia, following a court ruling that overturned a four-year ban on Russian national teams. The Court of Arbitration for Sport ruled on 30 October that the International Ice Hockey Federation (IIHF) must allow Russian national teams of all age groups to compete internationally, including at the 2027 World Championship scheduled for May in Germany. The IIHF said it disagreed with the ruling but would comply. German ice hockey federation DEB chair Frank H Lutz said the ruling…
