Politics Central: Should New Zealand do more or less for the Middle East? - Politics Central

Developments in the Middle East are growing as the UK and US militaries both launched a third round of joint attacks on the Houthis in Yemen in response to the Iran-aligned group's ongoing attacks on commercial ships in the Red Sea.

International Law Professor Al Gillespie, joins the Weekend Collective to discuss how U.S. strikes align with international law. Plus, we ask Al how New Zealand fits into this- should we be doing more in the Middle East or should we stay out of it?

Later, we're joined by The Minister for Māori-Crown Relations Tama Potaka, who gives us an insight into what Waitangi Day means to him, and whether celebrations are as contentious as the media are making them out to be.
