Has Trump turned his back on Europe?

from The News Agents

Donald Trump's first stab at a deal on Ukraine appears to have gone very well - for Russia. During a 90 minute phone call with Putin they started to lay out the terms. Including a veto on Ukraine joining NATO and an understanding that Ukraine would never reclaim Crimea. The phone call with Zelensky did not come until afterwards. European leaders are up in arms at being left out of the conversation and can’t work out why Trump is conceding to Putin before he’s even stopped his illegal invasion. Is Trump 'the deal maker' just not actually very good at making deals? And has he profoundly given up on the West and its defence? Later, what does the Munich terror attack presage for the forthcoming German election? Is it making life for the anti immigrant parties much easier? And which toddler dared to tell Trump he was not actually the President?Tickets to The News Agents Live On Stage with HSBC UK are now on sale!
