New Zealand announced the dismissal of its ambassador to London due to his statements, which were called "disappointment" in the perception of President Donald Trump's historical events. During the roundtable on the Russo-Ukrainian war on Tuesday, Phil Goff expressed similarities in whether Trump understands history in a contemporary context. He also drew a parallel between the negotiations for peace, which Trump is attempting to initiate with Russia to end the war in Ukraine, and the Munich Agreement of 1938, which allowed Nazi Germany to annex parts of Czechoslovakia.
