Orban lambasts European parliament over sanctions threat

The World Tonight

Available for over a year

Hungary's prime minister hits back at the European Parliament over claims he's undermining EU values. We hear from a supporter and an opponent in the Parliament. Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva, former Brazilian President, finally exits the political stage. We look back at his career, and ask what his absence means for a very dramatic election. Barcelona hosts the biggest pro-Catalan independence rally in a year - but is the cause any closer? Also in the programme: how the global financial crash looked from the perspective of students who'd just graduated.
