“CrossTalk” is the newest addition to the RT program lineup. This TV debate club presents hot-topic discussions on politics, business, newsmakers, global trends, present-day conflicts, dangers and challenges of modern world.

Peter Lavelle poses hard, straightforward questions to his guests, and demands concrete answers in response. His guests are politicians, journalists, scientists - anyone who influences the decisions changing our world or plays a key role in forming public opinion.
