White House rebuffs Kremlin’s request to interrogate several American citizens

White House rebuffs Kremlin’s request to interrogate several American citizens.

US President Donald Trump has rejected a proposal made by President Vladimir Putin that Russia be allowed to question a number US citizens. We speak to Bill Browder, one of the men on Russia’s list, who wants to know why it has taken a number of days for his government to reject this controversial request.

Also in the programme: Montenegro’s NATO worries; and why Burberry burnt millions of dollars worth of its clothes.
