German Defence Minister - Ursula von der Leyen

from The Interview · host BBC World Service

Stephen Sackur speaks with German Defence Minister Ursula von der Leyen. Vladimir Putin has wrong-footed the West, again. First it was in Crimea and eastern Ukraine, now it is with his rapidly escalating military intervention in Syria. The Obama Administration, Nato, and the EU have issued warnings and condemnations, but does the West have a coherent strategy in Syria. And does the EU have a security strategy at all?(Photo: German Defence Minister Ursula von der Leyen, 2015. Credit: Getty Images)
