In this week's episode, the team discusses several challenges that the US administration is facing. US president Joe Biden is continuing his meetings around Asia to address pressing matters such as North Korea's military testing and Japan-South Korea relations. The US administration will also host next month’s The Summit of the Americas. The US and several other nations Asia-Pacific trade ministers walked out during the meeting in Bangkok. Lastly, as the US continues to be involved in the Ukraine war, we begin to question its preparedness to deal with the situation and its intentions surrounding it.
This week on the Washington Report, we speak to Nirmal Ghosh, US Bureau Chief, The Straits Times to discuss these headlines.
