IN THE PRESS © FRANCE 24

IN THE PRESS – Tuesday, 22.03.2022: We take a look at two Associated Press journalists' escape from the besieged Ukrainian city of Mariupol while being pursued by Russian troops. We also discuss how the French press is covering Corsican nationalist Yvan Colonna's death. In the US, the papers are discussing how some Republican senators filled the first day of Judge Jackson's Supreme Court confirmation hearings with grievances. Finally, we discuss the monkey business of chimps and orangutans, be it with a stick and a rock or with slang.
