About This Episode
Despite international outcry for a ceasefire, the Israel-Hamas war rages on as Israel’s ground offensive escalates. Friction between President Biden and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu widens as they try to find common ground over the future of Gaza. And with U.S.-China relations at a 40-year low, Biden meets with China's President Xi in an effort to ease tensions. The Council's Ivo Daalder examines these issues with Susan Glasser, Stefan Kornelius, and Giles Whittell on World Review.
