Kosovo in political stalemate as parliament fails to elect speaker

Kosovo's parliament failed to elect a new speaker for the fourth time on Friday, prolonging a legislative crisis that has prevented efforts to form a new government more than two months after an inconclusive election. Under Kosovo's constitution, a parliamentary speaker must be voted in before the election winner can form a government, but without cross-party support that is proving difficult, and the stalemate has exposed deep divisions in Europe's newest state. In the February 9 parliamentary election, following an acrimonious campaign in which outgoing Prime Minister Albin Kurti called the opposition "animals" and "thieves", his Vetevendosje party came first but did not secure an outright majority.

Trump targeting college accreditation process in new executive order | CNN Politics

President Donald Trump is set to take aim at the college accreditation process with a new executive order Wednesday, a White House official says, his latest move to exact control over America's higher education institutions.

On April 23, 2025, former President Donald Trump announced his intention to issue an executive order aimed at reforming the college accreditation process if re-elected. The proposed order seeks to address what Trump describes as "overreach" by accrediting agencies, which he claims impose burdensome regulations on colleges and universities. The executive order would establish a new accreditation system focused on outcomes such as graduation rates and job placement, rather than on the current criteria that include diversity and inclusion policies. Trump's plan has drawn criticism from education experts and Democratic leaders, who argue that it could undermine academic standards and disproportionately affect minority-serving institutions. The announcement comes amidst ongoing debates about the role of higher education in the United States and the influence of political agendas on educational policy.
