Description:
Russia warned NATO to keep its hands off Kaliningrad, and Mark Rutte and the alliance appear to have blinked. Alex breaks down the NATO retreat, UK PM Andy Burnham suddenly floating an Iran link to the RAF air base incident, Marco Rubio sending the Iranian delegation home, Trump teasing something big on Iran, Ukraine's F16 crisis in Belgium, and the push to grab Russian frozen assets. With Brexit reversal on the table and Kiev facing blackouts, is the West running out of options?
