One week after the high stakes talks in Geneva to end the war in Ukraine, top American officials met with a Ukrainian delegation yesterday in Mar-a-Lago. This as a corruption scandal hit Kyiv leading to the resignation of President Zelensky's right hand man, Andri Yermak. To break it all down, we are joined in the studio by Euronews’ Ukraine correspondent, Sasha Vakulina.

We will also be joined by General Ben Hodges, a former Commanding General of US Army Europe and an infantry officer who served in Iraq and Afghanistan. Since retirement in 2018, Ben Hodges has become a leading analyst and author on European defence and security.

Have you heard about the squabbles between the airline industry, EU capitals and consumer rights groups over better protection and compensation for us when we are flying with European airlines? Aida Sanchez fills you in.

Fingers crossed a deal is sealed before the Christmas break when millions of us travel through European airports. As one thing that flight delays can lead to is excessive doom scrolling on social media sites. Our reporter Jakub Janas has been taking a look at how social media addiction is keeping European politicians up at night.
