TRUMP100

Trump says he made headway, but there is no deal. The words ceasefire weren't even heard during this historic summit between Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin.

Martha, James and Sky's Moscow correspondent Ivor Bennett debrief on the day that saw Putin welcomed with a red carpet and applause and leave without a deal on the table. They discuss if there's any prospect of a three-way meeting with Zelenskyy and if Trump is any closer to becoming the peacemaker he desires.

Trump100 will be back on Tuesday morning, to debrief what happened during Zelenskyy’s planned meeting with Donald Trump in Washington DC.
