Under the framework deal, a ceasefire will come into effect in the next seventy-two hours. Also in the programme: Poland will "water down" a law that made it illegal to accuse it of complicity in Nazi war crimes, and we speak to the Philippines police chief in charge of the country's murderous drugs war.
