Friday Focus: Ceasefire struggles and Macron’s big gamble
This week’s Friday Focus podcast starts with updated analysis from Janice Stein about all the twists and turns of the Hamas-Israel-United States-Qatar-Egypt negotiations for a ceasefire in Gaza, which appear to have again gone off the rails. Do Hamas’ latest demands make the prospect of a negotiated ceasefire impossible? Rudyard Griffiths and Janice also discuss the results of the recent elections for the European Parliament, where a surge in the right-wing vote has led French President Emmanuel Macron to take a big political gamble that could have major ripple effects across the continent.
