on the i'm so proud of the people here have helped to move forward in life. stays on, so she has found to weigh all english was the social math hinder can go back to high school. when she graduates, she'll be well equipped for her future. i don't think there's any of her. i want to be a social worker. she will be the, the, i want to help young people. uh, it is a company of them in, fortunately, have to go through my so he said to the neighbors, to, is it just, i want to motivate them. but if the professor and tell them life might not always easy and it sure sure we can change things in the transfer the negative to positive to him, to could be doing her part to help address the social inequalities and persons here in this building the seat of the you commission decisions are made to impact
9:36 am
people like kinda her job training was co funded through the eaves main investment policy, the confusion policy. it supports economic growth and the improvements of life quality for you citizens among others. let's take a closer look at how it works. do you use spending a lot of money on something most people might have never heard of your quotation policy. coordination of policy? no, i never heard of. no, no, that doesn't ring a bell 1st. no. 3rd of the use budget funds go into it. the aim is that all regions and the you have the same chance for development and no re, dentists behind 20 to combat inequality of the mode. so he's in the you cause it's the blue that keeps the you together and the
9:37 am
main topic environment, transport, digitization, supporting small and medium sized enterprises, social and cultural projects. so here's some policy is like an octopus. it's headed ministration of funds and brussels. while a lot of the decisions are made in the regions themselves. but critics say that not all regions benefit equally funds are not always invested wisely and there was not enough transparency. as you know, that was financed by the you know i, i didn't go no, no, no, i didn't know whether they are using a new bypass their trash is being recycled, taking the train or simply breathing and clean air. many you citizens don't even know what confusion policy money is going
9:38 am
a cohesion policy also works towards a more sustainable and green europe. topic such as climate change in the u. structurally, weak regions are addressed here in brussels. the greek island of t. lowes is powered entirely by clean energy. it's a project that has caused the attention of neighboring islands the whenever she has time. she comes here to look at her wind turbine may or monte, or come out of fatty. i mean islanders of t last long and hard for their joint structure. now they have it at 80 meters high n wang, several tons. it has transformed t last into the 1st energy substitution island in the entire mediterranean. so far, so moto, so we have sending the message that even on the very small island is all very big things can happen in athens, gilbert, bowden, and i get into police without them at the when the
9:39 am
wind sometimes drops, solar energy kicks in, produced by this plant, a dozens of robust panels, collect power from some 300 annual days of sunshine. rusty, the color book you ought to use only has to go in inspect them once a year. that's the way we can minimize the cost sale for maintenance. and the same time, or we can have an, a the for the one type financing to leave more about the, to 25 years. the hundreds of islanders and up to 40000 seasonal visitors who flowing to the island are supplied with renewable energy in this way. tourism is t loss means tours of incomes before the homespun green energy revolution. there were constant difficulties as calvin only economies could. i mean after the believe that
9:40 am
many of used to be quite tough, they find the power often went out for hours at the time. it's up to you cause problems for appliances, especially a fridges and for the food you call them due to financial damage was quite high. now things are a lot better. you know what you guys are the problem backs then stem from the diesel power plant on the island of cos, 50 kilometers north. it generates electricity. you're not always reliably, but with a lot of pollutants. like you to cut that high. yeah, the plant looks terrible since people are probably still swimming right next to it as you can, as well as the to change that maria and her team set to work on the multi 1000000 euro eco project, find the funds, the paperwork with brussels. now those many binders, but she never thought of giving up the job. he told me said the needs this project
9:41 am
be several met. we feel we have to do something to protect the environmental level . and at the very bottom, i was convinced this plan would make a difference. i had, was there anything that i use? i don't think i was wrong. she didn't have the and then it was done for a few years now. the wind and solar plants have been running, controlled from this container, and monitored by laptops this time and we can see that the wizard buying the product you see is about 600 kilowatts. and it's also he bought from the c bailey. we found a volume above the 3 tones of friends he'll do anything and the, even the tories have heard the t last, literally has good energy without buying them. and it's of course,
9:42 am
it's positive when they make it read. i think it's fantastic because t loss is a good example for, for greece. and the other 2 is to countries the only one for these old power lines. they still have to feed the energy they produce here into the ailing state on power grid. the bad fingers, maria. see me up with you and they're always problems. high with a bill comes out of the season is even yeah. cell service. sometimes it always. yeah. yeah. sometimes i don't. yeah. you threw up with this garden once the if you broke out to the whole island, when my dog assume you will put the how many going to give you a complete block out the sea. ready and so the green energy campaign continues a new power grid is needed. and here on t last, they are convinced they'll succeed, the key part of
9:43 am
building a greener europe includes the rare earth elements. some of those wind turbines on t last, electric cars and solar panels wearers elements are crucial component. that's why millions in a you funds are flowing into a stone you to build a factory dedicated to where this is neither flower nor sugar. it's a roll of material that could make your decisions of a green future reality. read this in this factory in eastern estonia, the way some broken down into that chemical components. the canadian investor is aiming to use the valuable metals to make maintenance. they're relying on the new in the process. over the last decade, policy makers and brussels have been studying dependencies on critical mineral supply chains. and they've identified words as being at the top off criticality and
9:44 am
the index of criticality of strategic materials for green technologies and the transition to not 0 industry as an urgent the money for the rent metals they needed for making high performance when you to binds unconnected comm, notice the white powder is processed with the resulting material used to make what type of cold permanent magnet and that's, do you just not happening here in the pool? just city of nova, the canadian company mia was building the 1st such magnet factory in europe with millions in support from the union. at the specifications for electric vehicle motors, often german and french automotive manufacturers. up until now, joe has dominated the market for rent. it's and they have products the project in nava is meant to change that. the handshake with canadian industry came in just the right moment for the mayor of the board to town,
9:45 am
and the driver with the factory may help to better integrates novice russian residents into a stony and society. 90 percent of novice inhabitants are refreshing. the same. the russian city of even go hard is located on the opposite side of the novel rizza . hundreds of sick data is gathered on the stone in riverside, on may, 9th, when a screen with russian propaganda was set up across the river. demonstrate as against the war and ukraine were attacked group, still the marys counting on the loyalty of the russian residents. and we are hoping to the round table, a name on the very back. nobody wants to leave an offer in the you about, but i really would like a better life than i is. but i'll wait around jobs. when people go to work to albany, the city will come
9:46 am
a life. these both right. such viewing novel believes the promises of politicians. the unemployment rate in the border region is more than twice the national average . yeah, because there's 2 little investment. many leaves because there's no work, there's jobs, nobody wants to work for 800 or a 1000 euro. so we have seen the prices and the stores with, i mean, i guess the cost to be one more factories rate drops from then, so that they don't have to go away little bit, go to the you as aiming to prevent not to. that's why money will keep flowing into a 10 system in the, in russian border region, and whoever will in the process of the amazon, so that for the local population, they see the difference. and definitely when you go and walk around the matter of our dilemma, you've seen already the tremendous work that has been done with different cohesion funds there. the funding isn't just an investment in a peaceful future of to rule nato and russia safe each other hit
9:47 am
a mid increasing tension. the hope is that the plans magnet factory will bring drops and prosperity. and these, the situation on the estonian side, at least while contributing to a green future. so your up, the, we're here at the many europe park and brussels, where visitors can see europe's most famous landmarks, including the arc de triomphe hungry is also featured here, a nation whose leader is often at odds with you and victor, oregon, and his government regularly failed to comply with core you values and principles and yet hungry has enjoyed subsidies from the european union's coffers. so where is their relationship headed? it seems unbelievable that here in the middle of nowhere, a train should be arriving at any moment. a good portion of the 6 kilometers i've
9:48 am
tracked over on gary and meadows and pastors, was financed with european union funds. opposition? politician alco shot housing is i'm looking forward to the trip he's taking for us us come on the or the european union funding. there's some time spent on useful things see how, but often it's used on something completely uses the all such as railway and i did a unpaired value or as i guess, one of the train is rolling through the home village of mr. victor oregon. few passengers are on board. it comes across as a plaything for the prime minister. the mayor is reluctant to speak with us as our most of the residents. but a young woman in the village shop steps of, or does she think well for the you projects? no way that means also for us to live without me,
9:49 am
you love to old are countries with on to you members with the go the little train is just one example of how europe and financial support is used to in hungry that contrast. here it was useful but probably won't be available in the future. in the home, gary and capital budapest, a subway line was modernized with the you money. whether other lines will benefit as well as uncertain hungry has always been popular with tourist is not as well loved by everyone in charge of the you. that's down to a certain mr. up on a non conformist when it comes to the you, especially concerning o g p t to plus issues, freedom of speech, image just the system. that's why brussels has stopped the flow of money from sun funding programs into orbit um, gets back in mind the, the deputy mayor of budapest, an open opponent of corbin to, to,
9:50 am
to says that could take some time this war between done giving government and brussels. well, the ones who are losing the most of the citizens of with us because we are using this money in line with your pin goals. no new you funds for now. you have half of those serve a favor organ and his policies on the streets. his opponents on are free to speak up about the dispute and yet the government as well as good, they defy the european union and then show that we don't get any money or you won't even show that nobody examples. you're not putting them couple imprints. that's because that will put you in the market. they are taking these values, must be respected. funny. okay. i mean, it's said no doing so far, no matter how many people dislike the open, the government, you are sure if may be done and they will know something that makes you gotta say
9:51 am
a representative to the european parliament for orleans, the best party, how much dosage says the you alone is at fault for the funding for use to move on to 2nd. let me go to a 2nd. let me let me get some of them as news when it comes to 100 degrees. this is open political blackmail as a political. you hold on me to call them as a political power struggle. it shows when you say that the shipping is, that can be fraser development funding. just inductive exercise and pressure to change the hungarian position or less. yes. because the, that last time we get out of, that's going to the, i'll call it and make lots of stuff to me on the opposition. politicians are coach hot housy. it's barely making progress against corbin's populous propaganda. in the meantime, he's left the little chain and it's racing down the highway. the network of motor ways and hungry is operated by a consortium with close ties to a friend of carbons. some sections were financed with the money, apparently, for organ, the e. u is good enough for that. especially
9:52 am
a thought or to the senior entity that we will only need the union. the money is flowing into the also says that as soon as we're contributing more money to the time we get off, the water should start to think about whether it will stay in the u. k. e, you money may well have been dubiously squandered on a few projects and what cash is needed. it may not arrive at all. it seems as it's hungry may have come to a dead end on its journey with a european union. the here in the brussels and musical instruments museum, europe's ancient music traditions are on display. and the collection is quite diverse. for example, in cost and in finland, a special style of fiddle playing has achieved a spot on unit schools, cultural heritage list, and young musicians play a key role in keeping this heritage
