Palestine statehood push intensifies, US-Russia talks loom, Hollywood bets on sequels
In this episode of W News Extra, presented by Leigh-Ann Gerrans, we ask contributors Michael Jabri-Pickett and Jono Hayes whether pressure is mounting on US President Donald Trump over recognizing a Palestinian state, and whether Israel will finally allow journalists into Gaza. We also look ahead to Trump envoy Steve Witkoff's upcoming visit to Moscow, as the White House prepares potential new sanctions on Russia if no breakthrough is made on the war in Ukraine. And we explore whether Hollywood has run out of ideas, as the summer of 2025 shapes up to be the summer of sequels.
