| 0:00.0 | I'm John Batchel with my good colleague Gregory Copley, Defense and Foreign Affairs. |
| 0:08.3 | Europe. In these last days, Gregory, there's been an emergency meeting called by Matty Friedrichson, |
| 0:13.4 | the PM of Denmark in Copenhagen, attended by the major powers of the EU, and Britain was there in a person of Mr. Starrmer. |
| 0:23.5 | The cause? |
