The Supreme Court heard arguments about injunctions against Trump’s order to end birthright citizenship for those born to parents of undocumented immigrants or foreign visitors.

Article 4(3) of the European Climate Law states: 'With a view to achieving the climate-neutrality objective set out in Article 2(1) of this Regulation, a Union-wide climate target for 2040 shall be set'. Article 4(4) and 4(5) sets out aspects to consider in setting the 2040 target. In early 2024, the European Commission adopted a communication accompanied by an impact assessment (IA) regarding a 2040 target and the pathway to 2050 climate neutrality. Setting out pathway scenarios and an indicative 2030-2050 EU greenhouse gas (GHG) budget, it considers that a 2040 climate target depends on two dimensions (I): fairness and (II): feasibility. The legislative proposal was scheduled for first quarter 2025 but is delayed until June or July 2025. Source : © European Union, 2025 - EP

Key EU connectivity challenges include: (i) accelerating fibre network deployment by setting a decommissioning deadline for legacy technology (copper networks); (ii) balancing EU and national interests in allocating spectrum; (iii) ensuring cybersecurity for new generation mobile technologies (5G and 6G); (iv) controlling and protecting the submarine cable connection system; and (v) tackling the network cost contribution debate ('fair share'). The long-awaited digital networks act (DNA) may also aim at tackling these issues to improve the EU's digital connectivity ecosystem. The DNA is expected at the end of 2025, probably replacing the European Electronic Communication Code. The EECC Directive aims at stimulating investment in and take-up of very high capacity networks in the EU (e.g. fibre and 5G) and set new spectrum rules for mobile connectivity. As consistently late transposition has jeopardised its effects (resulting in fines for five Member States), it might be assumed that the DNA will take the form of a regulation.

Spain's national recovery and resilience plan (NRRP) is the second largest (in absolute figures) financed by the Next Generation EU (NGEU) recovery instrument and its main spending tool, the Recovery and Resilience Facility (RRF). Following the October 2023 amendment of the Spanish NRRP, adding a REPowerEU chapter, the plan's value reached €163 billion (or 13.1 % of national gross domestic product (GDP) in 2019), an increase of roughly 135 % compared with the original plan of 2021 (€69.5 billion in grants only). The amended plan comes with an increased grant allocation of €79.8 billion and a freshly requested loan allocation of €83.2 billion. The grant part includes the June 2022 upward revision of Spain's grant allocation of €7.7 billion and the country's REPowerEU grant allocation of €2.6 billion. In addition, Spain has requested a transfer of its share from the Brexit Adjustment Reserve of €58 million to its NRRP. So far, €48.3 billion of RRF resources (29.6 % of the amended NRRP) have been received. These have been disbursed by the European Commission in form of pre-financing and four grant instalments. The amended plan focuses on the green transition, devoting almost 40 % of the resources to it, and fosters the digital transformation by committing 25.9 % of the funds (excluding REPowerEU) to digital projects. In the context of the European Semester, the Commission assessed the plan's implementation as 'under way', yet warned about emerging delays hindering effective and swift implementation. The European Parliament participates in interinstitutional forums for cooperation and discussion on its implementation and scrutinises the European Commission's work. This briefing is one in a series covering all EU Member States. Sixth edition. The 'NGEU delivery' briefings are updated at key stages throughout the lifecycle of the plans.

The Congress is the legislative branch of the United States (US) system of government. It is divided into two chambers: the House of Representatives (the lower chamber) and the Senate (the upper chamber). The formal powers of Congress are set out in Article I of the US Constitution, and include making laws, collecting revenue, borrowing and spending money, declaring war, making treaties with foreign nations, and overseeing the executive branch. Elections to the US Congress occur every second November, with the Congress convening the following January. Additionally, every four years, these elections coincide with the presidential election. The current, 119th Congress was elected in November 2024, and convened in January 2025. The US has a long-standing two-party system, which means that nearly all members of Congress belong to either the Republican or Democratic parties. Independent members, if any, generally align or caucus with one of the two main parties. In the most recent US Presidential and Congressional elections, held in November 2024, the Republican party won the White House. They also retained control of the House with a five-seat margin – the smallest in modern history – and won back the Senate with a six-seat majority, taking account of two independents who caucus with the Democrats. This gave the Republicans a governing trifecta, with control of the presidency and both chambers of Congress. This EPRS briefing provides key facts and figures about the US Congress as an institution, including relevant comparisons with the European Parliament (EP). Source : © European Union, 2025 - EP

박근혜 정부 청와대에서 춘추관장을 지낸 최상화 전 관장이 더불어민주당에 입당했다고 15일 밝혔다.최 전 관장은 이날 페이스북에 “30여년간 몸 담았던 보수정당을 떠나 더불어민주당에 입당했다”고 썼다.이어 “이 결정이 제 안위나 정치적 결정에서 비롯된 것이 아니다”며 “제 정치 인생에서 가장 아프고 가장 진심을 담은 결단”이라고 강조했다.최 전 관장은 22대 총선에서 경남 사천·남해·하동 지역구에 공천을 신청했지만, 서천호 의원에게 밀려 공천에서 탈락한 뒤 국민의힘을 탈당했다.그는 “지난 총선 그 당에 의해 철저히 버림받았다”며 “이후 복당을 신청했지만 그 또한 허락되지 않았다”고 돌이켰다. 이어 “얼마 전 당원들의 선택으로 정식 선출된 당의 대선 후보도 몇몇 지도부들에 의해 새벽에 기습적으로 배제당하는 참담한 일도 벌어졌다”며 “국민의힘에는 민심도 당심도, 그 어떤 민주적 절차도 없다”고 비판했다.[서울=뉴시스]
