The court on Monday ruled 6-3 that while former presidents enjoy immunity for actions they take within their constitutional authority, they do not for actions taken in a private capacity. The ruling marked the first time since the nation’s 18th century founding that the Supreme Court has declared that former presidents may be shielded from criminal charges in any instance. Chief Justice John Roberts announced the landmark ruling on behalf of the court’s six-justice conservative majority. The court’s three liberal justices dissented. da "al...

In France, tomorrow's vote for the new parliament comes amidst the backdrop of President Emmanuel Macron calling for snap elections following poor results for his coalition in the European Parliament elections.

According to polls, in the first round, the right-wing National Rally is expected to lead with around 36% of the vote, followed by the left-wing National Front alliance (27 to 29%), while Macron's centrists would likely place third (19 to 22%). If no bloc secures an absolute majority, a technical government remains a possibility. However, much attention is focused on the potential implications of these changes within France, the EU, and beyond if Jordan Bardella of the National Rally becomes prime minister. Aleksandra Kolakovic , a senior research fellow at the Institute for Political Studies, emphasized that securing an absolute majority for the right-wing party is just one scenario. "It's important to consider the results of the sec...

  La leader dell'Assemblea nazionale (RN), Marine Le Pen, è finora quella che ha ottenuto il maggior successo alle elezioni parlamentari in Francia. Il suo obiettivo è ancora quello di diventare presidente e, se il suo partito fosse al potere, minaccerebbe gravemente l’attuale presidente Emmanuel Macron. Ciò che interessa ai serbi è quale sia il loro punto di vista sulla Serbia. Marine Le Pen ha potuto dire più volte quello che molti in Serbia vorrebbero sentirsi dire, cioè che il Kosovo non avrebbe dovuto diventare indipendente. Durante le elezioni del 2017, aveva dichiarato che, se avesse vinto, avrebbe annullato il riconoscimento del falso Kosovo. - Il Kosovo è un paese santo serbo e cristiano che costituisce l'ultimo ostacolo alla creazione di un nuovo Stato islamico in Europa. Negli anni Novanta è stata fatta un'enorme ingiustizia nei confronti dei serbi e l'Europa è obbligata a porre rimedio a questa ingiustizia - disse allora Le Pen e per le sue dichiarazioni sub...
