Today our panel of international journalists tries to surmise the motivations and strategy behind Donald Trump’s sudden firing of FBI director James Comey. We also look at the complex web of alliances that’s leading an offensive to retake the Islamic State’s capital, the high hopes that rest on French president-elect Emmanuel Macron, and the Cannes Film Festival where Netflix seems to be ruffling some feathers in the movie industry.
