"Polish prime minister Donald Tusk says the incursion of Russian drones into Polish airspace brings his country closer to military conflict "than any time since World War II". But it's not just Russian aggression causing major headaches for European Commission president Ursula von der Leyen - she's also facing backlash over her U-turn on Gaza, with many calling the latest sanctions on Israel too little, too late."
"With tensions rising on multiple fronts, the real question is: can a divided Europe stand united in the face of growing threats - or are internal cracks starting to show at the worst possible time? Host: Tessa Fleming, Guest: John Downing"
Polish prime minister Donald Tusk warns that incursions of Russian drones into Polish airspace bring Poland closer to military conflict than at any time since World War II. European Commission president Ursula von der Leyen faces backlash for reversing her stance on Gaza and for sanctions on Israel that critics call insufficient and delayed. Rising tensions combine security threats from Russia with sharp political divisions within the EU over Middle East policy. These converging pressures raise urgent questions about the European Union's capacity to maintain unity and mount a coordinated response to external and internal challenges. The broadcast is hosted by Tessa Fleming with guest John Downing.
