US Calls For A Yemen Ceasefire
US calls on all participants in the Yemen civil war to agree to a ceasefire.
US Secretary of Defense Jim Mattis and Secretary of State Mike Pompeo have called on all participants in the Yemen civil war to agree to a ceasefire 'in the next 30 days'. We hear the latest on that development. Also in the show: Denmark accuses Iran of a political assassination plot on its soil. A Pakistan court has overturned the death sentence of Asia Bibi, a Christian woman convicted of blasphemy. We hear reaction to that story and we hear what it's like being a minority group there. And a new museum in Sweden is dishing out the most disgusting food from all around the world.
