- As the Iran war disrupts global flows of oil and gas and energy prices skyrocket, Albania is an example of how countries with higher renewables output have been protected from steep rises in electricity prices.
- The Bank of England will keep interest rates on hold this week and look ahead to the damage mounting for Britain's economy from the Iran war, while investors will be watching for any signs it is moving towards raising rates.

How Trump is moving to expand federal authority over US elections |
Reuters identified at least 20 current and former Trump officials who supported efforts to overturn the 2020 election or promoted broader voter‑fraud claims and are now involved in the White House’s push to reshape federal elections.
|
A Reuters investigation examines a broader‑than‑previously known Trump administration effort to expand federal authority over elections that have traditionally been run by states and local governments.
Across at least eight states, Reuters found federal officials and investigators seeking voter records, pressing for access to voting equipment and pursuing election‑fraud inquiries, prompting some state and local officials to consult lawyers and plan for subpoenas, warrants or unannounced federal visits to election offices and polling places.
Election officials and election‑law experts told Reuters the moves appear to test constitutional limits, forcing states to weigh federal demands against their own prerogative to administer elections.
