State of the Union is euronews’ weekly round up of the top stories from Brussels.

In this episode: the European Commission calls for Apple to pay 13 billion euros in back taxes to the Irish government. Apple, Dublin and Washington have all slammed the ruling, but the EC competition commissioner is holding firm. Also, shadows are cast over the future of the long-lauded EU-US free trade project, known as TTIP. Plus, a look ahead to the EU Summit in Bratislava.
