in contrast, angela merkel was never really lucky during her 16 years. the fortunes were mostly stacked against her. she had just started her tenure in late 2005, and when putin gave his theory speech in munich in 2007, when the little georgian war started, when the financial crisis torn in 2008. crisis after crisis after crisis. she was not a lucky chancellor in terms of historic opportunities. i think if she had not had to be busy with crisis management all through these 16 years she would probably have tried to move the european union and move germany in a different direction. the fact is because of this sequence of major challenges for her, for her government, for the eu, one can say that she protected the status quo in terms of german society. constanze mentioned that she did not move the country forward, as much as many of us would have hoped, in terms of digitalization, in terms of modernization, et cetera. but she was, in that sense she did not enjoy the good fortune of one major, fantastic opportunity to change history. >> operator, can i get th

on that count, frankly i wouldn't blame angela merkel. she hits the head of the government and the parliamentary federalist state and power is more than that of a president. >> we do want to hear from you and you have to go last since we are talking about angela merkel but with response to what was just said and tell us how you think germany isch run today and how much she's had an impact on that. >> one of the impressive things ofhas been even though many germans were upset by certain decisions some didn't like her decision to walk away from nuclear power, for example. mainly as everybody knows, were enraged she would allow a million strange foreigners, but the interesting thing is that germans maintained the idea that she could be trusted. i mean,, her popularity index went up and down a bit et cetera, but i would argue that the interesting thing about her is that even those that may not have ever voted for her trusted her. the fact that she lived a totally scandal free life and with a middle east dictator or so, she was appreciated. sh

angela: yes., certainly, if the conflict goes on and on, in some of the scenarios that andrew weiss was pointing out, i think you will see a crack in western unity. europe, the united states, we have a lot of problems we ourselves are dealing with. and i do also think that we have to remember that, once a war has started, you don't know. accidents can happen. you don't know what the cost of the war is going to be. and it is possible that some of our nato allies on the eastern flank, ukraine's neighbors, could somehow be affected. and that could be a real crisis point for nato. we do know that, if you look at the treaties that the russians presented in december, that vladimir putin also has his sights on central and eastern europe. so we hope that that's not the next phase in this war. judy: and, andrew weiss, how are you looking at that, that really terrible -- this is bad enough as it is, but the terrible prospect that it could spread? andrew: i believe that the opportunities for spread are nontr

angela: there is dialogue going on. responded to the demands and said let's talk about troop deployments in europe, let's talk about other things in which we can rebuild. let's revitalize nato and russia. the russians have responded. there are communications going on and there is dialogue between the u.s. and russia on other issues. tom: angela stent, thank you so much. writing in foreign affairs. i cannot say enough about the s8 the putin doctrine. i thought this was great and the idea of the back-and-forth and the huge and over the daily rhetoric we see out of different capitals and particularly out of washington and the denials of russia where they are saying this is what we have said or not said. the confusion of messaging is extraordinary. lisa: the new york times report over the weekend saying russia has established about 70% of the troops they need for a full out invasion. russia says they are not going to, but talking about what the goals are. is it just they are concerned about ukraine joining nato or is this t

angela, a lot on the table. anything that you want to pick up from what has been said or the framing questions that i laid out at the outset? >> thank you for having me on this panel. i agree with everything the previous speakers have said. putin would not have embarked against ukraine at this time if he did not know that he would have china's support. it is not the reason, but it is the timing and the fact that he knew that whatever happened, the chinese would be there. in 2014, the west tried to isolate russia. china stepped in. now that relationship is stronger. we have a different chinese leader. this is the central backdrop for understanding what putin is doing. the united states finds itself in a similar situation to the soviet union in the early 1970's. an antagonistic relationship with the united states, then -- decided it would embark on a detente with the united states because it did not want to face these two major antagonist. today, these two powers coming together, i think it is impossible to try an

and angela stent. she worked in the state department during the clinton administration and served as a top u.s. intelligence officer on russia during the george w. bush administration. she is now a professor at georgetown university. welcome to the fushour to both of you. david kramer, to you first, taking today's developments together, the statement by a putin that russia will now recognize the independence of these two break away regions and the, what is reported to be th movement of russian troops in to that eastern region, what does it all amount to? >> judy, i think today may have been a fatal day for diplomacy. mr. putin seems to have gone completely heywire in the past 24 hours, where he initially offered a tent tiff agreement o to french president macron on a meeting with president biden. that now seems very unlikely. even a meeting scheduled for this thursday with russian foreign minister lavrov and secretary of state blinken seems very unlikely. putin all of a sudden has really hit the accele

and meantime angela stent, you have these sanctions that the west is imposing. do you see those having any kind of meaningful effect on what putin is deciding to do on a day to day basis? >> i mean they will certainly have an economic effect on the individuals, on the people who deal with the major banks that have now been sanctioned, in terms, longer terms of the industry with the export controls. but unfortunately, i don't think they will have any impact on vladimir putin's decision making. we have seen him particularly the last week in these diatribes that he-- on trvetion, in his pronouncements of, which are wildly not factual and don't have a basis ineality, about what ukraine is. so i don't think that the prospect of some of his friends are being sanctioned or you know, banks being sanctioned, it is not going to change. am. >> woodruff: now that we have seen this next level of sanctions imposed by the united states, by the u.k., and others, do you see that having an effect? >> i think the u.s. and western response and the level of coordination and joint ac

angela merkel was in charge.as pulling together member states of the e.u., making sure they were consistent in sanctions. she led the normandy process, which was france, germany, ukraine and putin, to try to find a diplomatic solution to this crisis. obviously, we don't have angela merkel anymore. macro has -- emmanuel macron has his presence. he is up for reelection. olaf scholz has come in relatively new. he is not wet behind the ears, he was vice chancellor in the last four years of the merkel government and was finance minister. which is, in many views, the second-most powerful position in the german government. he is certainly someone with a lot of experience. but, it is a different thing than what we had before. i think the united states is being smart in allowing multiple points of contact with vladimir putin and multiple pressure points to try to get this thing to not move on to an invasion. kailey: other than angela merkel not being involved, i am wondering what else is critically different than in 2014

angela, i'm going to start with you.u tell us about this new institute and its mission? >> one thing about this institute is we're going to stand with what uncle robert -- i'm sorry, congressman john started. we're about education, about reaching out to the people, about this institute is going to make sure that his legacy stay alive by making sure that we continue what he started, where we want to reach out to the youth and reach out to any organization that's willing to help women of color, men of color, diversity. we're just going to make sure that we know that we need to push what is right and that people understand that reading is important. we're just going to make sure everything that uncle robert -- i'm going to call him uncle robert -- did does not in. in vain and we're going to put out the information education-wise and as far as cancer and anything uncle robert did, we're going to continue that role. >> there's voter education and issues like financial literacy, health awareness, for example, cancer screenings

to your point, angela. >> yeah. he did. he said ukraine never existed as a state.hese are things he said before, but he said with it a venom last night. yeah, it's an artificial state and really denigrated the ukrainians and said they were corrupt, vessels of the united states. they were trying to acquire nuclear weapons. i don't know where he gets his information from. maybe he makes it up. i do want to remind your viewers that when putin talks about the great catastrophe, 20th century catastrophe of the breakup of the soviet union. he did well by it. had the soviet union not broken up, he would remain a mid level kgb career officer in some provincial town in east germany, maybe elsewhere, and now he is the powerful and rich president of russia. we have to take those words with a grain of salt. >> the denialism of ukraine as an entity was remarkable last night. i know putin has said things like that before but never with 190,000 troops literally ringing the country as he was speaking those words. anton, who is wavering in terms of u.s. allies right now? who is sha

angela, the floor is yours. angela: thank you all. what an incredible discussion. it is really nice when we have current events that bring it together. we appreciate the participants. please continue to join us. that will allow us to explore. thanks so much. and we look forward to seeing you next time. >> today is presidents' day and congress is not in session this week. president biden is keep an eye on russia. president vladimir putin announcing -- separatist. the white house has a meeting between the u.s. and russian presidents. at that meeting will take place sometime after thursday, only if russia has not taken military action against ukraine. president biden addresses a joint session. live, tuesday, march 4. -- tuesday, march 1. >> presidents recorded conversations while an office. here's some of those conversations. >> you will hear about the 1964 civil rights act. the march on selma and the war in vietnam. >> certainly johnson's secretaries knew because they were tasked with transcribing many of those conversations. in fact, they were the ones who made sure

well, if you look at it, for instance, the city of angela bond is currently considered one of the lee safe and the country in part because of, you know, mafia's and crime networks and things like that. but also specifically because of the threat posed by the so called state, because it has always been one of the city of job is always been one of the primary target. and it's continued to the day. you know, those attacks are not letting up. and there are still reports of fighting between the 2 groups in and around you all the bod. so it's really not helping, you know, as i said, you know, the number one thing. i mean, when i was still in the emerett, i remember i was talking to follow the official. he's like, look, we've delivered peace and we've delivered security in order to you. and i said, well, no, you haven't. because look at what happened at the airport right before the end of the occupation, the end of the withdrawal, when you know, the so called the front, they claimed a massive, massive attack. you know, on the outside perimeter of the air for work. now, people were waiting, y

that was the case under angela merkel and is the pace under olaf scholz.: let's talk about emmanuel macron in more detail. we have an election in the spring. emmanuel macron has made much of the fact he has been building relationship with vladimir putin. if that relationship comes to nothing, if france is not able to move the dial on this, how big a danger is that to emmanuel macron domestically, at home as we run into that election? carsten: domestically i would look at it the other way around. taking a stand on the international stage and demonstrating he is a respected global leader, that is something that can benefit him. if he does not succeed, i'm not sure whether that translates into a downside risk story. we have seen looking back at angela merkel in germany, she has definitely benefited from that perception she is a strong leader on the international stage. kailey: what about the domestic focus when it comes to vladimir putin and his own domestic considerations, especially if he were, to which point russia has said it has no intention of invading

and we thank both of you for joining us tonight, angela stent, secretary leon panetta, thank you. >>druff: in the day's other news, a new trial began for russian opposition leader alexei navalny, at a prison where he's already jailed for parole violations. he now faces charges of fraud and contempt of court. but, at today's proceedings, navalny refused to back down. >> ( translated ): i'm not afraid of the decision of the court, russia's federal serity service, the prosecutor's office or everyone else. i'm not afraid, because i consider it humiliating to be afraid of all this. it's bad to live and accept all this. >> woodruff: navalny's allies say that he could get another 15 years in prison if he's convicted-- and that the putin government wants to keep him locked up for as long as possible. the families of nine victims in the sandy hook school shooting agreed today to settle with gun manufacturer remington arms for $73 million. the company made the rifle used to kill 20 first graders and six teachers in newtown, connecticut, in 2012. the families sued over the weapon's marketing. w

they say this all the time they say in interviews with her angela davis writes the forward to a book by colors. and alicia. garza is a fusive about how much they owe angelo davis this contact tracing you can see from blm leaders to angela davis who will start philosophy by markusa, and you actually can take it back markuza study on the marketing heidegger an actual member of the nazi party in heidegger was the head of the of the niche institute in germany in 1920s a very close friend of niche. very anti-semitic nazi sister. angel davis is not just a communist. she was an actual member of the party who ran as vp on the communist party ticket and in fact told julian bond that she found communist did not go far enough. they were boring. they were old fashioned. her parents were called communist. she want to thank him much further than that. so that is that gives you so much. yeah, by the way, and this would james have said about the the use different things eric mann. a former weatherman that's not a guy on tv, but i remember the weather on the ground went to prison very key communist.

to have you with us, angela.sia and china in the middle of this ukrainian crisis. how significant do you see president xi and president putin meeting in this way? i think today was really an inflection point. you have this detailed 18 page statement setting out russia and china's strategic partnership, saying that they are better than allies, pushing back at the west, saying the west has no right to tell them what to do, and you have the chinese explicitly endorsing the russian demands that nato never enlarge and of course russia confirming its view that, of the one china policy. and so there was a lot of detail may also —— they also lashed out against the aukus alliance, the united states, great britain and australia, and the west's whole indo pacific strategy. it is interesting, a lot of the country they are lashing out at other ones that boycotted the olympics diplomatically due to human rights abuses in china. but if it is a new era, which i think you are outlining there, when it comes to these strategic alli

joining me now is angela harrelson, aunt of george floyd.published a book called" lift your voice: how my nephew's murder changed the world." . angela, thank you for joining us, skpiand i'll get to your bon a minute. it's been two and a half years since the death of your nephew, george floyd. now we see the death of someone at the hands of police. as you see his parents fighting for justice for his death, what goes through your mind? >> it's heart-wrenching. it's like trauma all over again. it's not just an emotional trigger for me of the pain, but it's also for the community. it's for the community. and black america. it's like, here we go again. >> have you reached out to amir's family? would you like to? what message would you send to them? >> i wanted to reach out to them. i know they've been pulled in so many directions. i tried to reach out to another source, to a referral, but what i would say to them is just surround yourself with family, with friends and just know that you're not alone in this, and that we got your back, and we're g

you need to read angela stent and elizabeth economy.'s world and the widely anticipated, the world according to china. her books have been definitive for decades. dr. economy joins us with the hoover institute. congratulations. after the old liv-ex, after ukraine, you talk about the china reset. what is the reset toward the party congress? elizabeth: the 20 ton -- the congress is coming this fall, perhaps in november. geez jinping will likely be reluctant for his third term for the communist party. he has routed out his political enemies, whether in the communist party or the broader civil society. say something against xi jinping and you will disappear for four years or 18 years. this will mark the beginning of the third term for xi jinping, the third five-year term. he has an ambitious agenda ahead of him. doubling per capita gdp by 2035. tom: that is all great. to be honest, you have been original in saying he is more fragile domestically then we perceive, do you stand by that? elizabeth: absolutely. we can look just back to the firs

judy: angela, do you also see this as a fatal day for diplomacy? >> i do.had an unusually aggressive speech by putin. he expressed all the grievances he has been expressing for the past 15 to 20 years. and by recognizing these so-called republics as independent entities, by sending russian troops, he has raised the stakes, the likelihood of an actual war with ukraine. he was unrelenting in his criticism of ukraine. in his speech, denigrated them. we have not quite seen anything like this. this was much different than the munich security conference in 2015 and it does not bode well for the future. judy: explain the significance of putin today saying russia now recognizes the independence of these two regions. for people who don't follow exactly what has been happening in that part of the world. >> putin is following a plan he followed in georgia in 2008 with recognizing separatist regions in that area. russia occupies 20% of georgian territory to this day. now has done what he did in 2014 with the illegal annexation of crimea. except in this time in the case

i think you heard angela mention a lot of the perspectives.st justice since justice marshall to represent criminal defendants. first justice to be a public defender. and john, that's not going to move the center of gravity on the court, but i do think it's an important perspective that perhaps over time, as joan said, over the decades, that she's likely to serve on the court, could potentially move some of the justices around her. we know, for example, that ruth bader ginsburg had an effect on chief justice rehnquist as they served together. so i think it's such an important pick, not just for the obvious reasons but for the less obvious reasons. for the ways in which a justice jackson would diversify, not just the color of skin of the justices, not just the first black woman on the court but someone who actually understands what it's like to be in the nitty-gritty of our criminal justice system in a way that frankly none of the current nine justices do. and in a way that could only help the court's jurisprudence. >> we don't have cameras in f

. >> thank you so much, angela. and what a pleasure to be able to participate in this program on the american presidency and why we have a president. and being a history person, i'm going to start off by sketching some background for how we got this particular officer of government that we call the president of the united states. as it is, the president of the united states is probably the single most familiar face in the world. and the irony of that dominance is that very few people at the nation's founding expected that that would ever be the case. the american revolution was, after all, a revolution against the rule of a single executive at the head of government. thety executive in the case of e revolution being the e king of england. but americans have been having difficult times with governmental executives for a lot longer than just the years preceding 1776. governors of the english colonies -- now, for instance, as far back as the 17th century -- had found ruling in america to be a very difficult task. kings

plus angela has little fish all of the, both the shapiro legible wish it doesn't live in a pushing just really, you know, but it is comply of the so they'll they come on because the son of mister shows and may 2004 the very cove narada published a report that revealed financial interference by western countries in the internal politics of ukraine in july 2004. the u. s. house of representatives adopted resolution number 336, which gave a negative assessment to the political situation in ukraine. usually this means a bern notice on the opposite side. in september 2004, the u. s. senate passed a resolution ordering the executive branch to impose sanctions on ukraine in case of violations during the presidential campaign. basically, the ukranian president had already been selected in the united states. there was little left to do, simply force ukraine to bend to the will of the united states. ah, when discussing ukraine, we must remember that its external and internal borders were formed in a unique environment. all in 1920 ukraine became a part of the socialist community. and then after t

you or i knew more to know it would issue mcdonald novel angela. this is mean the sport formula. this me in the cool you follow him, show him where we're moller. of know what i knew that he put away the chest that will read. know what i'm sure to with. oh dish. these one gun me laska. he would last cuffed, was a me says new dumas from them drove up with this. this is she pull out? okay. push out the quote. oh, see what you need them to be there over a parade. and i just, she just, even though shift my values for normal, for example, occupancy ah, often what are called spontaneous movements and are really quite well organized. this is all the more. yes, when one observes the full fledged infrastructure for a spontaneous movement, which is equipped with food, fuel tents, warning system and transportation. but in any case, under the pressure of the street, a 3rd round of elections were held. victor use jenko as expected, became the 3rd president of ukraine. ah, the country turned to the west. a plugin with shank of hulu? no, no, the t. i came a bullet, bishop cleaning. i ordered. la

. >> you know, it is incredible, angela, if i may call you that.o think that any police officer would not share key details to their colleagues about what happened at the scene of your nephew's killing. you must be outraged by this testimony. >> yeah, because it's -- it -- it says coverup. and it was something they obvious was trying to hide and they didn't want the -- the people that should have known, known about -- should know about it. so, if they didn't say anything, it's because they didn't want people to know. >> you know, this trial has had several prosecution witnesses testify that officers had a duty to intervene, and help floyd per minneapolis police training but didn't do it. is this trial just as important or even more important than officer chauvin's murder trial? because it demonstrate that this isn't just about one man. it's about a broken policing system. this isn't just about derek chauvin. it is about the entire system. >> it is. and this -- this trial is just as important as derek chauvin's trial because it is about a broken sys

the president's meeting with the new german chancellor, and this is the man that has taken over for angela merkel, and he has been criticized for not doing that much when it comes to ukraine's security, at least not with the other nato allies, what they are doing, and i know the pipeline will be a hot topic or big topic of conversation for the president, and what can you tell us from the white house's standpoint? >> it's also from bipartisan member of the congress and the senate, and people like senator blumenthal, so a republican and a democrat. the more they publicly confirm there are difference about what type of attack to take towards a potential invasion, and those are the kinds of divisions vladimir putin is seeking to exploit and is good at exploiting as we have seen from past conflicts. i think the message you will hear publicly today from the president as well as chancellor schultz is one of unity. a brief introduction to the meeting where reporters were allowed in a moment ago, president biden called germany one of the closest allies of the united states and they were working in

happens to them when they when they break apart and then come back together, but i'm also reading angela davis's our prisons obsolete because i'm really trying to understand i have seen the phenomenon of mass incarceration happened in the 22 years and i've been a librarian but that being said i think that there's something that angela davis is dealing with this idea of a punitive measures to encourage good behavior that somehow you know, there is there's something there that doesn't work and i think what we're seeing in libraries is that that civic sense of civic responsibility that i borrow a book and then return it for others that that isn't encouraged through fines. in fact, it discourages people sometimes especially people who don't have the means of a $2 fine and just a shame sometimes can keep someone from not going to a library that books are for you that's one of the main rules of librarianship and so what we're seeing is across the nation libraries are beginning to rethink and many of them eliminate fines to encourage use. i think there are other ways like relationship building
