Trump's Tariffs Are Making a Mess at the UN | To Save Us From Hell

from Global Dispatches -- World News That Matters

"Nobody wins in trade wars," said António Guterres as he left a UN Security Council meeting this week. But it's clear there's at least one big loser: American diplomacy. This week, Anjali and Mark break down how the Trump tariffs are rippling through the UN — and how they're complicating diplomacy on issues that have nothing to do with trade. We also speculate on who Trump might tap as his next envoy now that Elise Stefanik is out. Plus, we dig into the UN's role in Gaza as both diplomacy and humanitarian aid grind to a halt, and what's next for the World Food Program after a stunning announcement — and sudden retraction — from a senior DOGE official.
