US President Trump’s former national security advisor John Bolton checked in with Berlin Briefing’s hosts. Bolton explained why he doesn’t believe Trump will send the bunker-busting bomb to Iran. Pushed for a character assessment, Bolton questioned whether Trump had even made up his mind on what he will do next – on Iran and on NATO. On the question whether Trump is a Russian asset, Bolton says "no" but warns that Trump "thinks he and Vladimir Putin are friends." Listen to DW’s Michaela Küfner, Nina Haase and Richard Walker challenge Bolton on the state of instability in the Middle East and beyond, and hear the former US Ambassador to the UN say that he "would disregard" international law on Israel.
