World Food Programme Exec Dir. Cindy McCain

In Sudan there’s still no lasting ceasefire, as the warring parties refuse to put down arms. After nearly four weeks, the violence is having a devastating effect on the country, with hundreds killed and thousands fleeing their homes in search of safety. Those left behind or forced into refugee camps are in dire need of shelter, medicine, clean water, and of course food. The UN World Food Programme is urgently working to get the Sudanese people fed, but it’s dangerous work. Three staff members have been killed in the fighting, which forced a temporary suspension of operations. At the helm of the WFP during this tense time is Cindy McCain, the former ambassador and widow of Senator John McCain. She’s just one month into the job, and the challenges go way beyond Sudan. She joins the show from Nairobi. Also on today's show: Historian Simon Schama & New York Times London Bureau Chief Mark Landler discuss the UK's feelings about a new king and the future of the monarchy itself; Oklahoma State House Republican Toni Hasenbeck To learn more about how CNN protects listener privacy, visit cnn.com/privacy Learn more about your ad choices.
