Stephen Carroll 0:00
Hello, I'm Stephen Carroll. I'm in Brussels, where many of Europe's biggest decisions get made.
Caroline Hepke 0:05
And I'm Caroline Hepke in London. We're the hosts of the Bloomberg Daybreak Europe podcast.
Stephen Carroll 0:10
We're up early every weekday, keeping an eye on what's happening across Europe and around the world.
Caroline Hepke 0:15
We do it early so the news is fresh, not recycled, and so you know what actually matters as the day gets going.
Stephen Carroll 0:21
From Brussels, I'm following the politics, policy and the people shaping the European Union right now.
Caroline Hepke 0:27
And from London, I'm looking at what all that means for markets, money and the wider economy.
Stephen Carroll 0:33
We've got reporters across Europe and around the globe feeding in as stories break.
Caroline Hepke 0:37
So whether it's geopolitics, energy, tech or markets, you're hearing it while it happens.
Stephen Carroll 0:43
It's smart, calm and to the point.
Caroline Hepke 0:45
And it fits into your morning.
Stephen Carroll 0:46

Karen Moscow 0:54
On Apple, Spotify, YouTube or wherever you get your podcasts. Karen, we begin with the latest from the Middle East. Israel and Lebanon have agreed to a ceasefire if Hezbollah stops fighting. That has emerged as a key condition for Iran in its nearly two-month truce with the U.S. Israel's U.S. Ambassador Yehiel Leiter says this is an unprecedented agreement.
Yehiel Leiter 1:23
We've brought the people of Lebanon to the understanding that we're not the enemy. Hezbollah is. And now we're going to work together to to rid the country of this Iranian proxy on Israel's border.
Karen Moscow 1:38
Israeli Ambassador Yehiel Leiter spoke after the negotiations in Washington. Bloomberg's Abir Abu Omar has more from Dubai.
Abir Abu Omar 1:45
Hezbollah has not given an answer yet to this. It could very well stop those hostilities and that could very well again answer the last sticking point between Iran and the United States. We reported earlier this week that Iran's sticking point of Lebanon particularly had hindered the progress of negotiations between Israel, the U.S. and Iran.
Karen Moscow 2:09
Bloomberg's Abir Abu Omar reporting from Dubai. Meantime, clashes did continue overnight in southern Lebanon. Iran's foreign minister, Abbas Araghchi, says, meanwhile, there's been no recent progress in peace deal talks with the U.S. That's according to a report from Iran's semi-official Tasnim news agency.
Unknown 2:25
Back in Washington, Nathan, President Trump's war effort has taken a political blow. The Republican-led House has approved a resolution to stop the war.
John Staschauer 2:33
On this vote, the yeas are 215 and the nays are 208. The concurrent resolution is adopted.
Unknown 2:41
Four Republicans joined with every Democrat present to pass the War Powers Resolution. Democratic Senator Jeanne Shaheen says she hopes this sends a message to the president. Now the House and Senate have both passed resolutions on the war in Iran with majorities that say the president needs to rethink his policy on Iran and needs to come to Congress. And New Hampshire Democrat Jean Shaheen appeared on Bloomberg's Balance of Power. This was the fourth time this year that Democrats forced a vote on the war and the first time they got enough support from Republicans to pass it.
Karen Moscow 3:15
Karen, they're still counting the votes in the California governor's race more than 24 hours after the polls closed. With 58 percent of precincts reporting, Republican Steve Hilton is maintaining a lead with 27.6 percent of the vote. He's followed by Democrat Javier Becerra with 25.6 percent. Fellow Democrat Tom Steyer is holding on in third with 19.8 percent. The top two finishers go on to the general election regardless of party.
Unknown 3:40
In Los Angeles, Nathan, where voters also weighed in on Mayer, early results suggested a runoff between Democratic incumbent Karen Bass and reality TV star Spencer Pratt, a registered Republican. California's heavy reliance on mail-in ballots means a final result could be days away. According to the Associated Press, with 63% of the votes counted, Bass holds the lead with roughly 35% of votes, followed by Pratt with about 30%, and City Council Member Nithya Raman at 22%. If no candidate surpasses 50% of the vote, the top two finishers will advance to a runoff.
