The Roe v. Wade ripple effect
Amanpour - Un podcast de CNN
With reproductive rights under attack in America, a world first as France makes abortion a constitutional right. CNN's Melissa Bell explains how US politics galvanized this history-making moment. Then, Christiane asks French President Emmanuel Macron’s former minister for gender equality Marlène Schiappa if America’s reputation has been damaged abroad by turning back the clock on the right to choose. Meantime, more than 110 Israeli hostages have been released from Hamas captivity since the war began. But 130 remain in Gaza - 99 of them believed still alive - but with no word of their condition. Chen Almog Goldstein lived to tell her harrowing story of survival in Hamas captivity. Her husband and eldest daughter were murdered in front of her, just before she and her three remaining children were kidnapped and taken to Gaza. She describes her torment, and tells Christiane why her captors wouldn’t let her cry. Then, the US and Jordan airdropped food into Gaza this week, as the UN warned that widespread famine was now “almost inevitable.” Now parents in Gaza tell CNN their children are dying of hunger and dehydration. CNN’s Nada Bashir has their story. It was a close call for the Ukrainian President this week, after a Russian missile exploded near his convoy. It was also a jolting reminder of just how dire the situation is. Nowhere is this war more real than on the frontlines, where Ukraine is rationing munitions while it waits for ammo and aid from the US. CNN's Nick Paton Walsh sees the struggle firsthand. From the Amanpour Archive this week: shock therapy and poverty in capitalist-curious Russia, and how moonlighting as a taxi driver fueled Vladimir Putin’s rise to power. And finally, ahead of the Academy Awards, Christiane revisits her interview with Mstyslav Chernov the director of 20 Days in Mariupol, which is odds-on favorite to win best documentary. If we don't report “the reality of war,” he tells Christiane, “it becomes acceptable.” Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
