Ukraine Fighting Shifts As NATO Eyes Even Further Expansion

Ukraine Fighting Shifts As NATO Eyes Even Further Expansion

On today's In the News roundtable, Nicole Roussell, Esther Iverem and Walter Smolarek discuss how the fighting in Ukraine is intensifying in the country’s east at the same time as the United States and its NATO allies are seeking to prolong the war for their own geopolitical benefit. The panel also discusses how the courts continue to offer impunity for police brutality, the arrest of a Texas woman on murder charges for having an abortion, the presidential election in France, the status of Iran nuclear deal negotiations, and more.
