Quick Glance: Romanian Orthodox Church Embraces Moldovan Priests
- A growing conflict within Moldova's Orthodox community between the churches affiliated with the Russian Orthodox Patriarchate and the Romanian Church reflects the divided opinion among parishioners.
- Over 60 priests have switched from the Moscow-linked church to the Romanian Church since last year, aligning with Moldova's pro-European authorities' goal to join the European Union by 2030.
- The pressure to choose between the two rival churches highlights Moldova's tumultuous history, having been part of the Russian Empire, Soviet Union, and 'Greater Romania' in the past.
- While the Romanian Church continues to welcome Moldovan priests and establish new churches, the Moldova Metropolis has defrocked priests joining the rival church and urges them to return.

Quick Glance: Heads of anti-government bloc report delays and harassment upon returning to Moldova
- Leaders of a new pro-Russian electoral bloc opposed to Moldovan President Maia Sandu's plans to seek European Union membership said they were deliberately delayed and harassed at the airport on their return home.
- Opposition parties, meeting at the weekend in Moscow, announced the formation of a bloc dubbed 'Victory' to take part in a presidential election and a referendum on EU membership set for October.
- The parties rallied around the fugitive pro-Russian business magnate Ilan Shor, who was sentenced last year in absentia to 15 years in prison for mass fraud.
- Sandu criticized Moscow's incursion into Ukraine and identified Russia and corruption as the two main threats to her country nestled between Ukraine and EU member Romania.

South Korean court hears children's climate change case against government
deccanherald.com/world/south-korean-court-hears-childrens-climate-change-case-against-government-2990729
Quick Glance: South Korean Court Deliberates Children's Climate Change Lawsuit Against Government
- Environmental activist Choi Jia, alongside her younger sibling Choi Heewoo, participates in a press briefing preceding the initial hearing concerning petitions asserting that the government infringed upon their human rights due to an inadequate approach to climate change.
- A public hearing regarding a lawsuit brought by twenty-four young environmental activists against the government commenced in one of South Korea's top judicial bodies on Tuesday. The plaintiffs argue that the government's negligence in addressing climate change left them unprotected.
- Maintaining that South Korea's current climate strategies fall short in containing the temperature rise to 1.5 degrees Celsius, the plaintiffs claim this breaches the state's duty to safeguard fundamental rights. Scientists caution about the dire consequences of surpassing a 1.5C temperature increase.
- During the legal proceedings, the government asserted its commitment to minimizing carbon emissions and upholding its citizens' basic rights. Nevertheless, activists expressed dissatisfaction with the government's response and urged for more concrete actions against climate change.
