US President Donald Trump has visited the Gulf on his first major diplomatic tour since returning to the White House. Caitríona Perry, Bernd Debusmann, and CBS News’ Ed O’Keefe discuss the significance of his trip. They also explore why President Putin skipped peace talks in Turkey between Moscow and Kyiv.

Every weekend, The President’s Path explores the state of US politics — in Washington and beyond. We dig into the key issues shaping America and uncover what’s on the minds of those closest to power. You can us at: [email protected]
