Episode description

Yet another wave of Russian missiles threatened Kyiv today, prompting air raid sirens across the capital and sending citizens scrambling to find shelter. This as President Volodymyr Zelensky criticizes the West for only capping Russian oil at $60 dollars per barrel. French President Emmanuel Macron has drawn a wave of criticism from both Ukraine and Baltic states for saying that the West should think about how to give Russia security guarantees “the day it returns to the negotiating table." Lithuania is one Baltic state deeply impacted by all of this - the is country sandwiched between Russian territory Kalingrad and Belarus. Lithuania Prime Minister Ingrida Šimonytė is on an official visit to the United States this week and she joins Christiane from Pennsylvania. 

Also on today's show: Actor Bill Nighy, writer and narrator Rick Stengel.
