Poland is something else... It seems clear that in the final moments of the terrorist attack in Krakow, a single policeman with a handgun fought a close quarters gunfight with the murderer dressed in full military gear with a rifle. The police officer took him down, but was himself gravely injured. Once they both fell to the ground, civilians rushed to the scene to try to save both their lives before the ambulances arrived. Absolutely out of this world. Such courage.

Kamala Harris, former prosecutor, proved beyond a reasonable doubt: Trump will always, always take the bait. My column on Trump’s terrible night: newyorker.com/news/the-lede/…

As of today, this is how women must dress in Afghanistan, according to the Taliban's Supreme Leader. The following rules are now in effect: The full face must be covered—no hands, nothing visible. The black veil was presented as a "recommendation" a year ago, now it is the law.

Hillary ran so that Kamala could win. She took all the arrows, fought the good fight, and is now handing the torch off to Kamala. None of this would be possible without Hillary Clinton’s leadership. Thank you, Secretary Clinton.

EU elections, a thesis: The far-right mostly surged in countries where the far-right has never ruled. In countries that have already been damaged by populism - Poland, Hungary, Greece - the center right did better. (UK fits this story too, except center-left benefits).

Jacques Delors will be our ‘patron de promotion’ for the 2024/2025 academic year! The last ‘grand bâtisseur de l’Europe’, former president of the European Commission and former president of the Administrative council of the College of Europe, left an immense legacy of achievements for European construction and integration. These achievements and his unwavering dedication to the European project will guide and inspire our students across our three campuses. "I have a passion for reform, for the progress of man and society. I cannot stand the feeling of being useless." #CollegeOfEurope #CoEMemories

Today the European Media Freedom Act enters into force. It is our first EU rulebook to protect media independence and pluralism. This new legislation provides safeguards against political interference in editorial decisions and against surveillance of journalists. More info ↓
