David Brown, producer of the BBC TV’s Trump - The First 100 Days,
speaks to Kurt Volker, former US ambassador to NATO, about the
whirlwind start to President Trump’s second term in office.

In this conversation, Ambassador Volker, who previously served as
Trump’s special envoy to Ukraine, shares his assessment of the
president’s programme of change - and the extraordinary pace of
reform.

He gives the inside take on Trump - from that explosive White
House press conference with Ukraine’s President, Volodomyr
Zelensky, to his plans for the Middle East - and sets out how Mr
Trump plans to make America great again.

Ambassador Volker decodes President Trump’s head-line grabbing
statements on US territorial expansion and international
relations - and explains the risks of doing away with diplomatic
convention.
