About this episode
Iceland has long kept the EU at arm’s length. But Russia’s war in Ukraine and President Trump’s threats to take control of Greenland have prompted a rethink, with growing calls for Iceland to move closer to the bloc. Also, it’s been a tense week in Haiti after nearly 50 people were killed and over 50 more were kidnapped in a coordinated gang attack in a town outside the capital, Port-au-Prince. And, Gotham FC's openly gay star striker, Esther Gonzalez, has left the New York team and has now signed on to play for a Premier League team in Saudi Arabia, where her marriage is illegal. Plus, an update on Nepal victims and the continued search for the missing.
