Trump and Putin: Friends reunited?

US Correspondents Martha Kelner and David Blevins discuss the latest on Donald Trump's negotiations with the Russian President Vladimir Putin. A "productive" call to reach peace in Ukraine, according to the White House, with news of an in-person meeting between the two leaders in the next two weeks.

We also hear from Martha on her latest reporting on Donald Trump's immigration raids, as she follows the sad case of Ismael Ayala-Uribe, who died in ICE detention in California in September.
