This morning on Europe Today, we speak to European Commissioner for Housing Dan Jørgensen about new rules aimed at curbing short-term rentals such as Airbnb in areas experiencing so-called “housing stress”. Maria Tadeo reports live from the Rīga Conference in Latvia, where this year’s focus is firmly on the Russian threat. She speaks to Finland’s Foreign Minister Elina Valtonen, whose country shares a border with Russia.
