This week John Simpson, in discussion with the Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ's unparalleled range of experts across the world, examines the strategy behind the US and UK attacks on the Houthis in Yemen, analyses whether the elections in Taiwan have made an invasion by China more likely and looks at the implications of Donald Trump’s dominant victory in Iowa.
