Trump addresses the National Rifle Association three days after mass shooting

BBC World Service - Weekend, Trump addresses the National Rifle Association three days after mass shooting

Police in Texas admitted mistakes in the operation

The former US President called for stronger security measures in schools, days after the deadly shooting at Robb Elementary in Uvalde, Texas, which killed 19 children and two teachers.

Also: Ukraine soldiers may have to retreat in some areas of the East to avoid being captured by Russians troops; and the later winner of the prestigious Booker Prize, the Indian author Geetanjali Shree.

Joining Paul Henley to discuss these and other issues are Latika Bourke a London based journalist for The Sydney Morning Herald and The Age; and Carne Ross – a former British diplomat - who now works for EG3 - a think tank that works on climate diplomacy.
