About this episode

In this episode of The President's Daily Brief:


  • Israel voices strong objections to the US's stance on a UN resolution demanding an immediate ceasefire in Gaza, while Iran seems to be quite pleased with the outcome. We analyze what this means for international relations.


  • An update on the turmoil in the Red Sea, where Houthi rebels defy expectations by attacking a Chinese vessel, breaking assurances to avoid Russian and Chinese ships. We break down the implications.


  • We delve into the growing alliance between Russia and North Korea as Putin sends his chief intelligence official to Pyongyang.


  • And in the Back of the Brief, crypto entrepreneur Sam Bankman-Fried has received a multi-decade prison sentence for charges including fraud, conspiracy, and money laundering. We provide an in-depth look at his sentence.
