Special counsel Robert Hur testifies before Congress about his investigation into Joe Biden’s handling of classified documents. Thomas Gift discusses the political implications.  Meanwhile, as US support for Ukraine dwindles, pressure is mounting on Europe to get its act together and take charge of its own security. Vincent McAviney and Olga Tokariuk examine Europe’s defence wake-up call, the curious role of humour during wartime and China’s panda diplomacy.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
