Zelensky launches attack on Europe's leaders & Trump predicts Ukraine war will end ‘soon’

Day 1,428.

Today, as President Zelensky savages Europe’s leaders at Davos, especially for blocking the use of frozen Russian assets to fund Ukraine, we assess President Trump’s apparent retreat from his threat of tariffs against NATO allies after agreeing what he called a “framework for a future deal” over Greenland. We hear reaction from the island itself, before speaking to the author of a new book on building mental resilience – an antidote to these stressful times.
