Calls for more UK devolution on the rise

CNN
About this episode

Tributes to the now late Queen Elizabeth II haven't quieted the calls for more devolution around the United Kingdom and overseas, to shake off vestiges of the former British empire. To discuss this, Christiane spoke to Sir David Manning, a former British Ambassador to the United States.

Meanwhile, following a stunning Ukrainian counter offensive in Kharkiv, and for the first time since his February invasion, Putin is facing mounting criticism from his own side. Loyal commentators have asked whether he miscalculated or was misinformed. Deputies from 18 municipal districts in Moscow, St. Petersburg and elsewhere are now calling on him to resign. The former Commander of American forces in Europe, General Ben Hodges, joined Christiane from Germany. 

Also on today's show: former Archbishop of Canterbury Rowan Williams; Baroness Beeban Kidron, member of the House of Lords.
