Episode description
President Donald Trump is still in Davos, where his Board of Peace is the issue that is driving the conversation at the World Economic Forum. The entity that Trump has proposed to oversee the peace process in Gaza is cause for consternation among many of the countries who received invites to join. But it is that very list of invitees — which includes the likes of China and Russia — that is ruffling feathers among the traditional ally set. Playbook’s Jack Blanchard and White House reporter Megan Messerly discuss the latest upheaval that Trump has brought to Davos. Plus, could there be a breakthrough on a Ukraine-Russia peace deal?
