Episode Synopsis

Tune in for a deep dive into Europe's widespread decry over the new EU-US tariff deal, with French PM François Bayrou calling it a "dark day" for the continent and the German Chancellor admitting it will cause "considerable damage" to the German economy. We'll then shift focus to the intensifying humanitarian crisis in Gaza, where reports of "real starvation" are prompting the EU to propose suspending Israel from its Horizon Europe research program and the UK to advance plans for Palestinian statehood recognition. Finally, we unpack Donald Trump's diplomatic barrage from his UK tour, including his new, tighter deadline for Russian President Vladimir Putin and his critical remarks on Israeli policy in Gaza.
