Episode Details

Russia is bombarding Europe with so-called "grey attacks" - what might President Putin do next? Christiane asks Czech President, and former NATO General, Petr Pavel, who has been sounding the alarm bells for months. Then, a tribute to an extraordinary and full life. As Gloria Steinem dies at 92, Christiane revisits her conversations with the great feminist activist, who fought for women everywhere. Plus, after Nepal's catastrophic glacial meltdown, a special report on the ongoing search for the living, and the dead. Also on the program, an intriguing new documentary, ‘An Eye For An Eye’, about an Iranian woman who killed her husband after years of abuse—and must pay his family for forgiveness, or face execution. Then, as we mark 35 years since the collapse of the Soviet Union, we look to Christiane’s archive with a piece detailing how the economic shock of the breakup hit Russians in their Vodka.
