This is “State of the Union,” euronews’ weekly round-up of the top stories from the past seven days.

In this episode: European Parliament President Martin Schulz announces that he won’t be standing for re-election, heading into German politics instead; MEPs calls for Turkey’s EU membership talks to be frozen in a vote slammed by Ankara; a frosty reception for Britain’s Brexit minister in Strasbourg; and Europeans are living longer, but not always in the best of health, says a new report.
