Trump, Putin, and the G20
President Trump has returned from his first G20 summit and a highly anticipated sit-down with Putin. Did it live up to expectations?
On this week’s first episode of The E.R., FP’s executive editor for news Sharon Weinberger is joined by Charles Kupchan, Daniel Drezner, and Jenna McLaughlin to recap the G20. What happened during the meeting between Trump and Putin? Are other world leaders getting used to life with Trump? Is there precedent for Ivanka Trump sitting in for the commander in chief at the leaders’ table?
