Washington Week with The Atlantic full episode, 4/25/25

Jeffrey Goldberg, along with two colleagues from The Atlantic, interviewed President Trump in the Oval Office on Thursday. That interview will be part of a story that comes out on Monday on theatlantic.com. Goldberg and Ashley Parker discussed their meeting with Trump and what was said.

President Trump's views on ending the war in Ukraine have evolved. From saying he would end it on day one, to his Oval Office scolding of Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy and now his online plea of "Vladimir, STOP!" The panel discusses how far Putin can push Trump before he takes Ukraine's side.

If President Trump's goal is to exhaust everyone in his first 100 days, mission accomplished. It’s hard to reckon with how much has changed in the economy, in foreign relations and across the institutions that have made us a knowledge-based democracy. The panel discusses what Trump has accomplished and what he hopes to achieve.
