    Fast and Furious: 100 days of Trump
    Apr 30 2025
    Yalda and Richard discuss whether there is any rationale behind President Trump's foreign policy or is he just winging it?

    They analyse the most recent volte-face on his attitude towards Volodymyr Zelenskyy and Vladimir Putin and the impact on his popularity at home.

    Also, Yalda discusses her interview with Pakistan's defence minister Khawaja Asif who admitted his country has been doing America's "dirty work" for the past 30 years.

    This comes amid a rapid and dangerous escalation between nuclear-armed neighbours India and Pakistan.

    They also discuss the status of a possible US-Iran nuclear deal.
