World in 10 Trump's Russia weak spot gives Putin an opportunity
With Vladimir Putin continuing to dangle the carrot of peace talks with Ukraine, seemingly with little intention of taking part, the World in 10 asks why he's dragging it out, how long he can do it for, and what Donald Trump can do to force him to the table. European and transatlantic security expert, Edward Lucas, argues that there is a bigger picture for Russia's president, that the longer hope continues, the more he can divide Europe and the US which might present an opportunity for a tempting attack on a NATO member.
