UK to rejoin Erasmus student exchange programme

What happened: The UK government is set to rejoin the EU's Erasmus student exchange programme after previously leaving it. The BBC is also responding to Donald Trump's defamation lawsuit.

Why it matters:

  • Rejoining Erasmus will allow UK students to study abroad in Europe more easily.
  • It signals a shift in UK-EU educational cooperation post-Brexit, affecting universities and students.

MNN Take: The UK's return to Erasmus reflects efforts to strengthen international education links. The BBC's legal response shows ongoing media involvement in high-profile cases.
