reut.rs/3TVYVLI
Quick Glance: Tensions between Meloni and Le Pen jeopardize far-right in the EU
- Comparison of Italy's nationalist Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni with French far-right leader Marine Le Pen leads to conflicts that could hinder the far right's aspirations for power in the EU.
- Surveys predict significant gains for the far right in the upcoming European elections in June, but a merger of EU far-right groups is unlikely due to Meloni's collaboration strategy within the EU potentially reducing her influence.
- The lack of unity in political platforms weakens the far right's influence on issues such as trade relations with China, Europe's response to the war in Ukraine, climate policy, and immigration.
- Internal tensions and Meloni's efforts to keep Le Pen at bay impede the rising influence of the far right in Europe and could have significant implications for the EU's political landscape.
In this corner of Europe, no one cares about the EU election: A poor Roma neighborhood has one of the lowest turnout in the European election.

Quick Glance: DA Seeks Broader Gag Order After Trump Attacks Judge's Daughter
- The prosecutor in Donald Trump’s upcoming hush money trial has asked the judge to clarify whether a gag order issued for the former president this week bars him from publicly attacking the judge’s adult daughter — and to expand the order if it doesn’t.
- Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg made the request after social media posts by Trump attacking the daughter of New York Supreme Court Justice Juan Merchan for her professional affiliations with Democratic candidates and politicians.
- Merchan should warn Trump that his recent conduct is contumacious and direct him to immediately desist, otherwise sanctions should be warranted.
- Trump is expected to be partially gagged in the trial for about two months, marking the first criminal trial of a former U.S. president, charged with falsifying business records to conceal a hush money payment to adult film actress Stormy Daniels during the 2016 presidential race.

reuters.com/business/energy/italian-regulated-electricity-prices-fall-almost-20-q2-2024-03-28/
Quick Glance: Electricity Prices in Italy to Drop Nearly 20% in Q2
- Regulated household electricity prices for the average Italian family are set to decrease by 19.8% in the second quarter of the year, aided by lower gas prices at the beginning of 2024, according to regulator ARERA.
- Last year, around a third of Italian households had regulated electricity prices, but the system is expected to be mostly phased out starting in July.
- The average Italian family's regulated electricity bill is expected to be 662 euros from July 2023 to the end of June 2024, marking a nearly 48% decrease compared to the previous year.
- While global tensions have impacted the downward trend of gas and electricity prices, the reduction in prices is being driven by the decrease in gas prices in the initial months of 2024.

Jacob Zuma barred from running in South Africa elections: South Africa's ex-president is barred from standing in May's general election, it is announced.
bbc.com/news/world-africa-68689044
Quick Glance: Impact of Jacob Zuma's Election Exclusion on South Africa's Vote
- The exclusion of former President Jacob Zuma from the elections in May is heightening political tensions in South Africa as the country gears up for what is anticipated to be a fiercely competitive electoral battle.
- Zuma's opposition to the ANC challenges his previous party's dominance and might result in the ANC falling below the 50% vote mark for the first time.
- While this may dampen the MK's momentum, the 2021 protests indicate that barring him from the election could rally his loyal supporters.
- Following the announcement, the MK announced plans to challenge the decision. A potential court ruling in favor of Zuma's candidacy could revive his political prospects and present a significant obstacle to the ANC during a period of declining popularity.

Quick Glance: Italy's PM Unfazed by Putin's Threats
- Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni has emphasized that the Kremlin's threatening rhetoric doesn't scare her.
- According to the Italian news agency ANSA, Meloni's comments were in response to Russian President Vladimir Putin's remarks following the terrorist attack at the Crocus City Hall concert venue in Moscow's suburbs, which the Kremlin propaganda is trying to blame on Ukraine despite ISIS claiming responsibility.

Previously, French President Emmanuel Macron condemned nuclear threats against his country made by Pyotr Tolstoy, Deputy Speaker of Russia's State Duma.

axios.com/2024/03/27/chris-christie-no-labels-2024-trump-biden
Quick Glance: Chris Christie Declines No Labels Presidential Bid
- Former New Jersey governor Chris Christie (R) has made the decision not to run as the No Labels candidate for president after extensively evaluating the prospects of a centrist third-party campaign against President Biden and former president Donald Trump.
- During the recent weeks, Christie, along with his team, explored the possibility of joining a No Labels campaign, while No Labels leaders intensified their efforts to court him as a candidate.
- In conclusion, Christie determined that while there is an abstract interest in a third choice in the upcoming election, there is no practical path to victory. The challenges include significant ballot access and legal expenses, a delayed start in fundraising campaign funds, and the risk of diverting votes from Biden to elect Trump as president, according to those involved.
- The No Labels leaders have set a deadline in early April to nominate a presidential ticket, with a clear indication that they will only proceed if they can recruit someone with a feasible chance of winning. Individuals involved with No Labels have informed others in recent weeks that they anticipate Christie will be the nominee, as reported by individuals familiar with the discussions.

Quick Glance: Trump Asks Appeals Court to Reverse Decision on Georgia Prosecutor

- The appeal provides another opportunity for the former U.S. president to delay or derail one of the four criminal cases he faces.
- Trump's lawyers accused Willis of "stoking racial animus" in her response to the allegations and misleading the court on when the romantic relationship began.
