Summary

With coronavirus infection rates soaring in Ireland, Taoiseach Micheál Martin joins Christiane Amanpour to discuss introducing new measures to combat the spread of the virus. He also reflects on Biden’s proud Celtic roots, the U.S.-Ireland relationship and the damning new report that shows 9,000 children died in Ireland’s mother-and-baby homes. Then a new documentary, “The Human Factor", offers a fly-on-the-wall view of Israeli-Palestinian negotiations, bringing the quirks, tragedies and many missed opportunities. The director of the new film Dror Moreh, former peace negotiating adviser Gamal Helal and former U.S. Middle East coordinator Aaron David Miller join a panel discussion to unpack the Middle East process then and now. Our Hari Sreenivasan speaks to Andy Slavitt, a senior adviser to the COVID Response Team, about what the new government has inherited from the Trump administration and Biden's plan moving forward.
