Will Trump & Putin decide Ukraine’s future without Zelensky?

Christiane Amanpour Presents: The Ex Files

As Donald Trump heads to a high-stakes summit with Vladimir Putin in Alaska, Ukraine’s future hangs in the balance. Could a deal be struck without President Zelensky in the room - and might Trump trade away Ukrainian territory to boast that he’s ended one of the world’s most dangerous conflicts? That's what Christiane and Jamie unpack this week, as they discuss whether diplomacy or capitulation will be the theme of this week's summit.

The conversation also turns to Israel’s escalating plans for a full reoccupation of Gaza — and what that would mean for the region and the world. Plus, four years after the West’s chaotic withdrawal from Afghanistan, Christiane and Jamie revisit why the evacuation went so disastrously wrong, and how it continues to undermine America’s credibility on the global stage.

Later, Christiane reveals what it was like to report from Afghanistan before, during, and after the American invasion, how she was proven right about where Osama Bin Laden was hiding out, and whether there's hope for the women and girls who are currently suffering so badly under the Taliban regime.
