Friedrich Merz, leader of Germany's CDU, failed to secure a parliamentary majority in the first round of voting for Chancellor, garnering only 310 votes, six short of the 316 needed. The Bundestag has 14 days to elect a Chancellor, with pressure mounting for Merz amid calls for his resignation.

Le Monde: French MPs want to promote wrongly convicted Captain Dreyfus, 130 years on
French lawmakers are proposing to posthumously promote Alfred Dreyfus, a Jewish army captain wrongfully convicted of treason in 1894, to the rank of brigadier general. This move is seen as a reparation for the anti-Semitic injustices he faced during the Dreyfus affair.
Former Prime Minister Gabriel Attal emphasized that this act would highlight the ongoing fight against anti-Semitism in France, especially in light of recent increases in attacks against the Jewish community. No vote date has been set for the proposal.

Times Of Israel: Next round of Iran-US nuclear talks likely to be held in Oman this weekend
A fourth round of nuclear talks between Iran and the U.S. is expected this weekend in Oman, with May 11 cited as a possible date. The discussions were postponed from May 3 due to logistical issues. Iran's commitment to diplomacy remains, despite U.S. sanctions and tensions over regional conflicts.
Iran's nuclear program, which Tehran claims is for civilian use, has raised suspicions among Western nations, particularly as it enriches uranium at levels close to weapons-grade. Russia has expressed willingness to facilitate dialogue between the two nations.
The Telegraph: If Trump wants to bend Putin to his will, he should send these weapons to Ukraine
President Trump has shifted his approach to the Ukraine War, moving away from a quick diplomatic resolution as Russia escalates its offensive. While Ukraine signed a rare earth metal deal with the U.S., the focus is now on imposing significant sanctions on Russia and potentially increasing arms deliveries to Ukraine.
Key discussions within Trump's circle suggest a pivot towards a maximum pressure strategy, which could include supplying Ukraine with advanced weaponry like fighter jets and long-range missiles. This change could enhance Ukraine's military capabilities and pressure Russia, potentially altering the dynamics of the conflict.
