Listen to this episode from The President's Daily Brief on Spotify. In this episode of The President’s Daily Brief:   Another humiliation for Vladimir Putin. His much-hyped “Russia–Arab World Summit” was supposed to highlight Moscow’s influence—but almost no Arab leaders showed up. We’ll look at what this says about Russia’s weakening hand in the Middle East.   Pakistan and the Taliban government in Afghanistan agree to a brief ceasefire after deadly border clashes and airstrikes. But the truce may not hold for long.   Former National Security Adviser John Bolton faces possible indictment this week for allegedly mishandling classified documents.   And in today’s Back of the Brief—Meta takes down a Facebook group accused of using the platform to “dox and target” ICE agents in Chicago, after a Justice Department request.   To listen to the show ad-free, become a premium member of The President’s Daily Brief by visiting https://PDBPremium.com.
