Supreme Court to decide on Trump’s birthright citizenship order
The US Supreme Court has agreed to rule on the constitutionality of President Donald Trump’s executive order restricting birthright citizenship for children born to parents who are in the United States illegally or temporarily. The order, signed on Trump’s first day of his second term, sparked immediate legal challenges and was previously struck down by a lower court. The Guardian highlights that the court’s decision could fundamentally reshape the interpretation of the 14th Amendment, while USA Today and The Hill note the case’s significance amid ongoing litigation over other Trump-era policies. The Boston Globe reports oral arguments are expected in the spring, with a major ruling anticipated by early summer.

German youth protest military service reform
Germany witnessed widespread student protests after parliament approved a new military service law requiring all 18-year-old men to complete a mandatory questionnaire about their fitness and willingness to serve, with potential for broader conscription if volunteer targets are unmet.

The reform marks a significant shift in German defense policy, sparking debate about civic duty and generational perspectives on militarization.

Hungary has formally vetoed the proposal to issue EU-backed eurobonds to fund Ukraine, eliminating a key fallback option if the bloc cannot use frozen Russian assets for a €165 billion loan to Kyiv.

Euroclear CEO Valérie Urbain told Politico Europe that frozen Russian state assets should serve as leverage in peace negotiations rather than be allocated directly to Ukraine’s war effort, warning of complex legal and financial risks. The US has floated using these assets for postwar reconstruction, but European leaders criticize American proposals as favoring Moscow. The ongoing dispute underscores diverging US-EU approaches to the Ukraine conflict and Russia sanctions.
