LONDON — Nearly 2,000 people were targeted with a phishing email after the suspected hack of a staffer of senior Labour MP Florence Eshalomi. The email contained a malicious file — identified by the Parliamentary Digital Service as a phishing attack — that tried to secure the credentials of other accounts, according to an email seen by POLITICO, which was sent by Eshalomi to those targeted in the days following last week’s breach. Westminster journalists and public affairs professionals were among those alerted to the suspected attack. Eshalomi, who is chair of the House of Commons housing committee, told POLITICO she…
Europe must keep accelerating its roadmap to integrate the single market and create a European industrial strategy to avoid becoming subservient to global superpowers, former Italian Prime Minister Enrico Letta told Euronews’ flagship programme Europe Today. “We don’t want to be a colony of the US, and we don’t want to be a colony of China, we want to be Europeans,” the former Italian prime minister said. In 2024, Letta published a report on how to complete the single market, which inspired the EU’s roadmap on how to make Europe more competitive. The report, titled “Much More Than a Market,”…
The Philippines continued emergency and recovery operations on 9 June after a powerful magnitude 7.8 earthquake struck off the coast of Mindanao, killing at least 41 people, injuring more than 450 and forcing thousands from their homes. The quake, the strongest to hit the country this year, triggered tsunami warnings across parts of the Pacific before they were later lifted. In General Santos City, one of the areas hardest hit, residents searched through damaged homes and apartment blocks to recover belongings as engineers inspected structures left cracked, partially collapsed or dangerously unstable. Roads, public buildings and utilities were also affected,…

No member of the center-right European People’s Party attached their name to the questions. Hagemann Snabe will report to European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen and tech chief Henna Virkkunen, both of whom are EPP. Siemens played a prominent role in a push to exempt industrial AI applications from the scope of the bloc’s flagship AI law, the AI Act, as part of a recently concluded omnibus simplification procedure. Last week, the European Commission defended the appointment, saying a conflict-of-interest assessment had been carried out and that Hagemann Snabe would recuse himself from roles at Google Cloud and C3.ai.…
After months of negotiations and repeated delays, Germany and France on Monday ended their cooperation on the Future Combat Air System (FCAS). According to the Élysée Palace, “the German authorities took the view that it was not possible to put further pressure on the companies concerned.” The decision brings to an end years of efforts to develop a next-generation European fighter jet. FCAS was widely seen as the most ambitious defence project ever undertaken in Europe. Launched in Paris in 2017 by French President Emmanuel Macron and then German Chancellor Angela Merkel, it was intended to form the backbone of…
US President Donald Trump expressed renewed optimism on Tuesday morning over negotiations with Iran, saying that there was a “good chance” of signing a deal in “two or three days”. “We’re very close to having a very, very good, strong, powerful deal,” Trump said, as the Middle East was still reeling from Iran and Israel exchanging fire the previous day in the biggest blow yet to the strained truce in the Iran war. “If we go and bomb — which we could do very easily if we want, and we spend another two or three weeks bombing — they’ll have…
It is not the first time that the U.S. president has promised an imminent end to the war in Iran, which has been raging since February. Weeks have passed since Secretary of State Marco Rubio told reporters that negotiating a deal to end the war in Iran could “take a few days.” Trump on Monday said he had a “very good conversation” with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and downplayed talks of a rift between the two leaders. Last week Trump was reported to have called Netanyahu “crazy” for his renewed attacks on Lebanon, and over the weekend he told…
Business leaders and unions in Switzerland are mobilising ahead of a referendum on Sunday on capping immigration, which has triggered fears of dire impacts on employment and trade relations with the European Union. The vote will focus on a proposal by the hard-right Swiss People’s Party (SVP) aimed at keeping the wealthy Alpine nation’s population, currently 9.1 million, below 10 million until 2050. The SVP, the country’s biggest party, argues that the initiative, entitled “No to a Switzerland with 10 million!” is needed to fight “out of control” immigration, which it blames for problems ranging from overcrowded trains to skyrocketing…
