About This Episode
Voters in 27 countries of the European Union took to the polls last week to elect the next European Parliament. While the far-right parties made major gains in France, Germany, and Italy, the centrists held on for a clear victory. How will these results impact the EU and its member states? Meanwhile, Italy hosts the G7 Summit this week as leaders come together to discuss issues such as Ukraine, Gaza, and immigration. Plus, the latest news on a ceasefire plan for Gaza. Karen DeYoung, Matt Kaminski, and Stefan Kornelius join World Review with Ivo Daalder to examine these stories.
