He was elected in 2024 promising to end the war between Russia and Ukraine within 24 hours, and less than six months ago halted the flow of military aid to Kyiv after giving President Zelensky a dressing down in the Oval Office. But Donald Trump now seems to have changed his tune on Ukraine.

The President has announced that the US will resume the supply of weapons, via Nato, and also threatened 100pc tariffs on Russia if a deal isn't done. He also later told the BBC that he was "disappointed" in Putin.

Camilla and Tim speak to former economic advisor to Donald Trump, Carla Sands, who blames "weak and flabby militaries throughout Europe" and a "feckless" Joe Biden for the current situation in Ukraine, and believes Trump will get a deal despite Putin not being an "honest broker".

Elsewhere, Camilla and Tim speak to Conservative MP James Cleverly, who was making a speech in Central London about countering the rise of Reform, and ask him if he's on manoeuvres for a leadership run.
