Summary
Trump says the Iran ceasefire is over - so how worried should we be about a return to full-scale war? Christiane and Jamie break down the latest tit-for-tat strikes and explain why the Iran War is even more humiliating for the US than Vietnam or Afghanistan. Plus, Christiane and Jamie discuss Trump’s interference in the World Cup… and how the US still lost to Belgium! They also assess the far-right Marine Le Pen's path back to eligibility for the French presidency, Reform UK leader Nigel Farage's resignation over an alleged £5 million “gift”, and Denmark's pointed reminder at the NATO summit that it will defend "every single inch" of its territory - Greenland included.
