8:29Now PlayingLewis Goodall speaks to Jasmine El-Gamal, a Middle East affairs analyst who served as Middle East policy advisor at the U.S. Department of Defence during the Obama administration.
Jasmine delves into the relationship between the US and the UK, and whether Keir Starmer has 'called it right' by not getting involved.
She goes on to analyse Trump’s ’sensationalist’ statements to decipher what his primary objectives are and what he wants to achieve.
She tells Lewis that ‘the ripple effects will be huge’, we haven’t even seen the worst of it yet, and we’ll be seeing the impacts ‘for years to come’.
