EU Foreign Policy Chief Kaja Kallas

G7 foreign ministers are meeting against the ever-changing landscape of President Trump’s policies, and there's no better example of his administration's impact than in the host country: Canada. Which is still reeling from the shock of its neighbor starting a full-blown trade war. Meantime, Europe faces a triple whammy: Trump tariffs, plus the shockwaves of suddenly being forced to fend for themselves, plus Ukraine’s fight for survival. On Ukraine, Russian President Putin says he supports 'the proposal to cease hostilities’ but has 'reservations'. Kaja Kallas is the European Union's High Representative for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy and was Estonia’s Prime Minister until last year. She joined the program from Quebec where the G7 is taking place. Also on today's show: Russian journalist Mikhail Zygar; author Jonathan D. Cohen, “Losing Big: America's Reckless Bet on Sports Gambling” Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
