Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu secured cabinet approval on Friday for a military takeover of Gaza City, which he described as part of a final push to topple Hamas after 22 months of fighting and recover its last 50 hostages, dead or alive.  Presidents Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin are expected to meet within the next few days at a location yet to be disclosed. The likelihood of the bilateral summit has increased since Trump said he’s willing to meet his Russian counterpart even if Putin hasn’t yet agreed to also sit down with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy. The Opening Trade has everything you need to know as markets open across Europe. With analysis you won't find anywhere else, we break down the biggest stories of the day and speak to top guests who have skin in the game. Hosted by Kriti Gupta, Valerie Tytel and Oliver Crook.
