How Trump took us to the brink of World War 3 and back again

This week in Trumpland: Trump bombed Iran on Saturday, declared
its nuclear programme "obliterated" by Sunday, shrugged off
Iranian missile strikes on Monday, and by Tuesday had
single-handedly forced a ceasefire between Iran and Israel—only
for it to nearly collapse hours later. Then, as if that wasn’t
enough, he turned up at the NATO summit in The Hague and
strong-armed allies into a staggering 5% defence spending target,
all while barely mentioning Ukraine.


Was this the art of the deal or the brink of disaster? Venetia
Rainey speaks to Brussels correspondent Joe Barnes for the inside
track on NATO, and we ask KT McFarland, former Deputy National
Security Advisor, the question gripping America: are we safer
today, or just one bad call away from another endless war?
