It’s a solemn occasion that President Biden is marking by awarding the Presidential Citizens Medal to 12 individuals who have defended U.S. democracy – many of them are Capitol police who faced the rioters two years ago. Meantime Congress faces a new crisis, not seen in 164 years: after three days, the House of Representatives remains speaker-less as the Republican majority struggles to overcome bitter divides. Their leader Kevin McCarthy is trading away more and more power to garner the support of some stubborn holdouts – but even if this strategy pays off, what he’s giving away could make Congress almost unmanageable.

Ukraine’s President Zelensky meanwhile told the annual gathering at Davos that he fears the world is losing interest, that momentum behind Ukraine is fading. He appealed “not to lose this feeling of unity.” Sergiy Kyslytsya is Ukraine’s Ambassador to the United Nations. He’s spent the last three months since the invasion driving home the horror of this war, unafraid to confront his Russian counterparts, and he joins Christiane from New York.  Also in today's show: Mohammad Shtayyeh, the Palestinian Authority Prime Minister; Nina Jankowicz, who just resigned from Homeland Security’s newly launched Disinformation Governance Board.To learn more about how CNN protects listener privacy, visit <a href="https://cnn.com/privacy" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">cnn.com/privacy</a>]]></itunes:summary><itunes:duration>3392</itunes:duration><itunes:explicit>clean</itunes:explicit><itunes:image href="https://d3wo5wojvuv7l.cloudfront.net/t_rss_itunes_square_1400/images.spreaker.com/original/3c31e6045503bbfd125609d82477863c.jpg"/><itunes:episodeType>full</itunes:episodeType></item><item><title>Biden challenges Taiwan 'strategic ambiguity' policy</title><link>https://www.spreaker.com/user/13385721/biden-challenges-taiwan-strategic-ambigu</link><description><![CDATA[President Joe Biden is on the last full day of his Asia trip, hoping to shore up America’s commitment to its allies after they were shaken by the last president. It’s a trip that all plays out against a backdrop of China’s growing dominance.
