Published 10 months, 1 week ago
Description
Donald Trump wants to win a Nobel Peace Prize and so he’s desperate to end the war in Ukraine.
He’ll be in Alaska later this week meeting the Russian president in the first face-to-face encounter the two men have had since Trump returned to the White House.
The problem is the Ukrainian leader won’t be there and Trump’s talking about some ‘land-swapping’ between the Russian invaders and Ukraine.
Today, international relations expert Rajan Menon on Trump’s theatrics and what the summit will really achieve.
