Today, we discuss the Prime Minister’s visit to the White House to discuss the US and UK’s support for Ukraine.

Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer said Russia had started the war in Ukraine and could end it "straight away”. Adam is joined by Chris Mason, who is in Washington with the Prime Minister ahead of his meeting with President Joe Biden.

We also speak to Emily Thornberry, the new Chair of the Foreign Affairs Select Committee. In her first interview since becoming Chair, she speaks about how she plans to use her new role, the UK’s support for Ukraine, and why she’d like more MPs to be ‘internationalists’.
