About This Episode
This week Russia hints at openness to a ceasefire in Ukraine but with tough conditions—stalling tactic or real breakthrough? Meanwhile, European allies increasingly see President Trump as a growing security threat, raising questions about reliance on the US and the impact on nuclear deterrence. And a judge rules President Trump overstepped by freezing USAID funds but stops short of ordering the revival of canceled programs. How is the dismantling of US foreign aid affecting the world’s most vulnerable populations and what impact is it already having on America’s global influence and security? Susan Glasser, Anton La Guardia, and Philip Stephens join Ivo Daalder this week on World Review to break it all down.
