We're recording this Wednesday afternoon in Britain and we're doing it at a very important, a serious time in world affairs because it's a time where the United States has allowed for the first time missiles, its missiles, long range missiles, to be fired into Russian territory.
The same thing is happening with British missiles.
And there is a huge incoming problem for the Trump administration to deal with.
So it's not just the diplomacy how do they end the war, it's also what do they do about Vladimir Putin and what do they do about the situation that they are going to inherit.
So we have exactly the right person to talk to about this.
We have the man who is in charge of getting Donald Trump's defense policy set up.
And we're going to hear from him not only about what is happening this week, but also about what the plans are for the Trump administration.
