From Ukraine to Gaza: The U.S. Role in a Shifting Global Order


Listen Later

In this week’s episode of This Week Explained, we break down the most critical global events shaping our world:
  • Ukraine Aid on Hold: U.S. President Donald Trump pauses military and intelligence aid to Ukraine, leaving Europe scrambling to fill the gap. What does this mean for Ukraine’s defense, Russia’s strategy, and the global balance of power?
  • Israel-Hamas Conflict: Trump’s fiery rhetoric and direct U.S. talks with Hamas—what’s the real goal, and how does it impact the fragile ceasefire?
  • Russia-Iran Mediation: Russia steps in to mediate between the U.S. and Iran on nuclear negotiations. What’s at stake, and how does this affect the Middle East?
  • U.S.-China Standoff: Tariffs, fentanyl, and Taiwan—how the U.S.-China relationship is evolving and what it means for global stability.
  • Cyber Command Controversy: Reports of a Pentagon pause on offensive cyber operations against Russia spark debate. Is this a strategic move or a sign of weakness?
Join us as we cut through the noise to provide nuanced, unbiased analysis of these complex issues.
