This week marks the first 100 days of President Trump’s second term. From dismantling key alliances and trade agreements to sidelining democratic values and global institutions, are Trump's actions rapidly unraveling the post-WWII world order and 80 years of American-led international leadership? What does this mean for US influence, global stability, and the trust of allies? Stefanie Bolzen, Bobby Ghosh, and Philip Stephens join Ivo Daalder on World Review this week for a candid conversation about this pivotal moment in history. They’ll also discuss updates on European defense, the Iran nuclear deal, and Canada’s election results.

This week, after President Trump floated a plan for Ukraine to cede territory to Russia, Moscow launched its deadliest strike on Kyiv since last summer. While the attack drew rare criticism from Trump, the administration has offered Kyiv only vague assurances about the country’s future security under the proposed plan that was presented as an ultimatum. Meanwhile, a deadly militant attack in Indian-administered Kashmir that killed 26 tourists has sharply escalated tensions between India and Pakistan, with both nuclear-armed nations engaging in retaliatory diplomatic and economic measures amid fears of further conflict. And in Washington, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth faces growing scrutiny as reports of internal dysfunction, security leaks, rapid staff turnover, and impulsive decision-making rock the Pentagon. Ravi Agrawal, Steven Erlanger, and Carla Anne Robbins join Ivo Daalder to discuss the week's top global news stories on World Review.

This week, the Trump administration quietly eased tariffs on a wide range of Chinese goods, a move critics say exposes weakness in the US trade war stance. Meanwhile, President Trump has refused to secure the return of Kilmar Ábrego García, who was unlawfully deported to a prison in El Salvador, escalating showdown between the president and the judiciary. And in Berlin, Germany’s new coalition government is already on shaky ground, as leaders of the conservative Christian Democratic bloc and center-left Social Democratic Party clash over policy priorities, leaving Europe’s largest economy in political limbo. Leonard Hockstader, Andrew Roth, and Felicia Schwartz join Ivo Daalder on World Review to breakdown this week’s power plays and shifting policies and discuss what they mean for global balance.
