Quick Glance: US Supreme Court discusses Trump's Immunity
- Conservative US Supreme Court justices signal sympathy for the argument that presidents have some immunity against criminal charges for certain actions taken in office.
- Former President Donald Trump appealed after lower courts rejected his request to be shielded from four election-related criminal charges.
- The Supreme Court hearing could distort the presidency without immunity and affect decision-making when bold and fearless action is most needed.
- The Supreme Court's decision on immunity is expected and could lead to Trump's trial occurring before the election.

US reimposes sanctions on Venezuela as Maduro continues opposition crackdown
go.france24.com/QqJ
Quick Glance: US to Reinstate Sanctions on Venezuela’s Oil and Gas Sector
- The United States will reimpose sanctions on Venezuela’s oil and gas sector due to the Maduro government's failure to allow 'an inclusive and competitive election' to take place.
- The US government decided not to renew the temporary authorization (General License 44) that allowed transactions with Venezuela's national oil and gas sector without fear of sanctions, citing the Maduro government's failure to uphold key areas of the 'Barbados Agreement.'
- While the impact of revoking the authorization could not be quantified, another authorization from 2022 allowing the oil company Chevron to resume limited resource extraction operations in Venezuela will remain in place.
- Despite reinstating sanctions, a US official emphasized that this should not be seen as a final decision on Venezuela's electoral capabilities, and efforts to support a better future for the country will continue.

Quick Glance: Surprising Victory for the Opposition in Turkey's Local Elections
- The Republican People's Party achieved significant success in Sunday's vote by expanding its presence in key cities such as Istanbul, Ankara, and Izmir, and capturing strongholds of the AKP in the Black Sea region and Anatolia.
- The historic victory was unequivocal. Just under a year after the reappointment of Recep Tayyip Erdogan and his Justice and Development Party to lead the country, the presidential majority suffered a painful defeat in the municipal elections on March 31.
- The CHP movement has emerged as the leading political force in the country, surpassing the AKP by nearly two points with 37.5% of the vote. This achievement is particularly impressive as the CHP had struggled to surpass 25% for the past two decades.
- Expanding its successes to other regions, the CHP managed to overthrow power centers in the Black Sea region and central Anatolia. Even in the town of Adiyaman, long governed by the AKP and heavily impacted by the 2023 earthquake, the CHP candidate took a significant lead in the polls.

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.
