Summary

Christiane is in Munich, where world leaders are gathering for the annual security conference, amid an anxious atmosphere after the death of Kremlin critic, Alexey Navalny. Christiane asks is this a message to the world? Also, can NATO count on America, after republican front runner Donald Trump invited Putin to invade any NATO nation? And can Ukraine hold off Russia for another year? Christiane interviews the man in the eye of the storm, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky. Also, this hour: superstar Matt Damon on his new documentary “Kiss the Future” about how art and music can sustain life in times of war. Then, correspondent Matthew Chance, has a special report from Kathmandu, where desperate families are left clueless when their husbands and sons are recruited by Russia to fight its war in Ukraine. Plus, legendary Hollywood actress Jodie Foster on making her return to the small screen, in True Detective. She’s joined by her co-star, a world champion boxer, Kali Reis. And in the Amanpour Archive: Christiane looks at the messy, often deadly process of demining in Afghanistan and the terrible legacy of war. And finally, in Ask Amanpour a viewer from South Africa wants Christiane’s take on the possibility of a one-state solution for the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Learn more about your ad choices.
