About this episode
Headlines: Tropical Cyclone Alfred continues slow journey towards land, Teenager arrested after trying to board plane with shotgun, EU leaders close to landmark defence deal as Trump again pauses tariffs, and Aussies are ditching Tesla.
Deep Dive: From an explosive meeting at the White House to accusations of an all-out trade war, the last seven days in international politics has been positively batshit insane.
We’ve seen the US pull military aid and intelligence sharing from Ukraine, the UK lead the charge to achieve peace in the region and Canada accuse America of trying to annex it.
That’s not to mention Donald Trump’s first speech to the new Congress.
In this morning’s deep dive, geopolitical expert Dr Keith Suter joins Bension Siebert to break down all the important moments from the last week and tell us what we can expect to come from it all.
