5/25 Mike Hanna: Trump’s Trip to Saudi Arabia & a New Middle-East Peace Plan

May 24, 2017

Mike Hanna, (@mjahanna) freelance presenter and former bureau chief for CNN in Jerusalem. What is unprecedented about Trump’s decision to make his first trip abroad to “the world’s great religions.” What’s happening inside Iran as the crucial context for middle-eastern prospects for peace.
