About this episode
The episode discusses potential US actions regarding UK sovereignty over the Falkland Islands in the context of the Iran war and its implications for US-UK relations.
The US could punish Britain over the Iran war by questioning UK sovereignty over the Falkland Islands - will that worsen US-UK relations ahead of the King's state visit next week? Ed Vaizey unpacks the politics of the day with Alys Denby and Michael Binyon. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
