Americanswers… on 5 Live! Is the Trump/Zelensky relationship back on track?
After the two leaders were reunited at Pope Francis’s funeral over the weekend, the Americast inbox has been filled with correspondence on whether Trump and Zelensky really have reconciled - and if it could bring a peace deal with Russia any closer.
Marianna and Sarah get together with Matt Chorley to answer your questions live on the radio. As well as the war in Ukraine, they discuss the 7-year sentence given to George Santos - the former congressman who is, of course, well known to long term listeners of this podcast via our semi-regular feature, ‘Santos watch’.
Plus - has the White House been bugged for a second time? And where do Republicans and Democrats eat in Washington DC?
HOSTS:
• Sarah Smith, North America Editor
• Marianna Spring, Social Media Investigations Senior Correspondent
