Summarize this content to 2000 words in 6 paragraphs in Arabic Good morning. US President Donald Trump yesterday announced 25 per cent tariffs on all steel and aluminium imports, the first of his new trade measures that would hit Europe.Here\u2019s a scoop: Russia\u2019s government has acknowledged that the fallout from the Ukraine war has hampered efforts to draw former Soviet nations closer into its orbit, according to a secret report seen by the Financial Times.Today, one of Europe\u2019s biggest tech companies tells our competition correspondent that Brussels is getting better at supporting the industry, and our Balkans correspondent unpacks yesterday\u2019s election in Kosovo.Business-forwardThe new European Commission is trying harder to understand how to support the EU\u2019s tech industry, according to Booking\u2019s chief executive Glenn Fogel, as Brussels attempts to regulate innovation while closing the yawning economic gap with the US and China, writes Barbara Moens.Context: Boosting domestic technology companies is seen as a key part of the push to improve the EU\u2019s industrial competitiveness, which Ursula von der Leyen has made a key priority of her second term as commission president.Brussels last month said it was \u201creassessing\u201d certain regulatory probes into tech companies, following US President Donald Trump\u2019s lambasting of EU tech rules. Today, von der Leyen will witness the launch of a \u20ac109bn AI initiative at an artificial intelligence summit in Paris, as Europe seeks a greater foothold in the fast-growing industry.Fogel said there \u201chas been a bit of a change from the previous commission in understanding: how can we best improve the tech ecosystem, and business in general, in Europe so that we can have this competitive environment as anywhere else in the world?\u201d Booking.com is the only Europe-based company designated as a so-called gatekeeper under the EU\u2019s landmark digital rules, a label that imposes extra burdens. The online travel platform had already suffered a number of regulatory setbacks in the EU.The CEO of Booking Holdings and of Booking.com, the US group\u2019s Amsterdam-based subsidiary, stressed that the proof of the pudding would be in the eating, especially on creating a more business-friendly regulatory framework. \u201cWe can\u2019t be a regulatory power if we are not an economic power. And we are not an economic power right now,\u201d Fogel said.After meeting Brussels\u2019 policymakers last week, he said: \u201cThere are key players that understand the challenge. Now, how we move from understanding the challenge and actually executing it and creating plans that work, that remains to be seen if it\u2019s possible or not.\u201d Fogel hoped the new commission would focus on simplifying and clarifying the rules, and also urged Brussels to strike the right balance in regulating AI, after new guidance on its landmark AI Act was published last week. \u201cI believe part of the problem here in Europe is not allowing people to explore, experiment\u00a0in advance. That sense of a brake on entrepreneurship does society no good,\u201d Fogel said.Chart du jour: Radio(in)activeMany politicians view nuclear power as an essential part of the energy transition. But can the industry defeat its cost and timeline problems?Goodnight, PristinaElections in Kosovo have stripped Prime Minister Albin Kurti\u2019s ruling party of an outright majority, meaning\u00a0that he could lose power to opposition\u00a0parties that\u00a0have vowed to replace him,\u00a0writes\u00a0Marton Dunai.Context: Kosovo broke away from Serbia in 2008 and has fought to be recognised since. It has taken a hardline turn under left-wing nationalist Kurti, who has centralised control and\u00a0alienated western allies that his country depends on\u00a0for economic support and security.Serbia rejects Kosovo\u2019s statehood and supports ethnic Serbs who claim their own institutions in Kosovo. Kurti, in turn, rejects any parallel Serb bodies as a breach of Pristina\u2019s sovereignty.The impasse has hardened in recent years, as militant Serbs with links to Serbian premier Aleksandar Vu\u010di\u0107 clashed with Kosovo police,\u00a0sometimes with deadly results.With two-thirds of the votes counted, \u00a0Kurti\u2019s party was on track to win 42 per cent of the vote, according to the country\u2019s Electoral Commission, stripping him of an outright majority.\u00a0Kurti has indicated he would not form a coalition with opposition forces, which would have enough votes to form a coalition without him. In that case, he would be forced to step down, with Bedri Hamza of the Democratic party likely to take the premiership.The EU has stopped financial assistance to Kosovo following Kurti\u2019s moves to unilaterally phase out Serb-issued documents, close down their post offices and ban usage of the Serb dinar currency.Opposition parties are more amenable to Serb demands for more autonomy, and have criticised Kurti for alienating the west at a time when Kosovo\u2019s integration into the EU and Nato are at stake, as well as regional stability.What to watch today European Commission president Ursula von der Leyen attends AI summit with French President Emmanuel Macron and other leaders in Paris.European Central Bank president Christine Lagarde attends European parliament plenary session.Now read these<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
