	Description:		Would you be willing to risk arrest to stand up for what you believed in? How about 13 times? François Picard invites a panel of journalists to discuss the Nobel Peace Prize going to human rights activist Narges Mohammadi, who's currently serving what amounts to 12 years behind bars in Tehran's notorious Evin prison. From her cell, the 51-year-old activist put out a statement for a prize that's a nod to all those who have risen up since last year's death of Mahsa Amini in the hands of Iran's morality police. The panel, which included regular guests Paul Moreira, Nico Hines, Matthew Dalton and Ana Navarro Pedro, went on to discuss the situation in Ukraine, whose leader was in Granada this Friday asking for aid to European allies as American support wavers, and in the other two conflicts on Europe's doorstep: Armenia and Kosovo. Finally, what to make of Paris's bedbug scare? Produced by Alessandro Xenos, Rebecca Gnignati and Imen Mellaz.
