US House backs new Russia sanctions
In-depth reporting and analysis from a global perspective as the US House of Representatives votes overwhelmingly for new sanctions against Russia.
The US House of Representatives has voted to impose fresh sanctions on Russia, despite President Donald Trump objecting to the legislation. We speak to a Republican congressman about whether this shows President Trump's party is trying to undermine him and to one of the leading architects of the legislation, Democrat Senator Ben Cardin. Also, we hear from wives of IS fighters who have fled Fallujah and speak to one of the researchers behind the alarming study indicating that sperm count among Western men has halved in less than 40 years.
