About this episode
In this special reaction episode, we break down the key takeaways from the White House meeting, including the surprising possibility of a Putin-Zelenskyy face-to-face, Trump's sudden openness to security guarantees for Ukraine.
We also explore the fascinating diplomatic charm offensive launched by Zelenskyy to win over his American hosts. Is this a real breakthrough or simply "smoke and mirrors"?
