Episode: Ending the war in Ukraine and a ceasefire in Gaza?
Description: While European leaders were gathered at the White House, Mr. Trump called Russian President Vladimir Putin to begin arrangements for a meeting between Mr. Putin and Mr. Zelensky, to be followed by a trilateral summit including himself. In other news, we learned yesterday that Hamas has accepted an updated proposal for a ceasefire in Gaza. Sources say the proposal is a partial deal for a sixty-day ceasefire, the release of ten live hostages, eighteen deceased hostages, and the release of Palestinian prisoners. Both stories point to a common denominator: our inability to resolve human conflict through human agency.
