New Documentary To Be Released On President Obama's Last Days At The White House



Daily Mail: EXCLUSIVE: F-word rows and bitter disputes over Russia, Iran and Syria: New documentary to lay bare the truth about the Obama White House's last days

* Obama's last days in the White House were filled with chaos and f-word confrontations over foreign policy, new documentary The Final Year reveals
* Former senior officials, including UN ambassador Samantha Power and Secretary of State John Kerry, comment on the 'whole drama' over Syria
* Staffers claim there was nothing to force the Iranians to abide by their terms of the deal supposed to stop them from getting nuclear weapons
* Obama's final address to the UN, what should have been a largely ceremonial affair, aides had a 'huge fight' over the tone of the speech
* The documentary, out later this month, shows how devastated Obama's team was when they learned Hillary Clinton lost the presidency to Donald Trump

Chaos, running rows and f-word confrontations over foreign policy are revealed in a new fly-on-the-wall documentary about the last days of the Obama White House.

Senior officials give the film unvarnished accounts of a 'whole drama' over how Syria was dealt with – and how there was nothing to force the Iranians to abide by their terms of the deal supposed to stop them from getting nuclear weapons.

In 'The Final Year' Ben Rhodes, Obama's deputy national security adviser for strategic communications, also says that it took 'too long' to get the measure of Russian President Vladimir Putin.

The documentary, shot by director Greg Barker and produced by Magnolia Pictures, followed Obama and his cabinet during his final 12 months in office.
