Ukraine says Russia broke pledge not to attack

There are thousands and thousands of pages of documents and they are accounts from CIA agents. There's also looks like they're ledgers to me of accounting. There's maps. There are all sorts of things in this tranche of documents. The problem is you can't search. You can't filter. So even if you know what you're looking for, it's actually really hard to find it.

And this document here, it's a really bad photocopy. And it's actually even hard to read the text. And there's acronyms that people like me and you won't understand. There's codes. Some people have code names. So I think even for the real history buffs that know a lot about JFK and a lot about the JFK assassination...

There are a few nuggets that we don't think we knew before. So, for example, there's a conversation between a CIA agent and someone in the KGB, which was the Soviet intelligence agency. And they're talking about Lee Harvey Oswald, who shot JFK. And KGB say, oh, he wasn't one of ours. But when he was in the Soviet Union, we were watching him.

We know he had a pretty tempestuous relationship with his wife. We also watched him doing target practice with a rifle and he wasn't very good at it. They called him a lousy shot. And then there are other documents and you think, well, how did they relate to the assassination of JFK? It's quite confusing.

Absolutely not, Ollie, because I think people that are really invested in the conspiracy theories, and many Americans do not believe that Lee Harvey Oswald acted alone.

They were given to them by the CIA, and the CIA wouldn't have handed over anything. Embarrassing. They must still have... secret records about the assassination. The CIA say that isn't the case and they've handed over everything. But there are still some redactions. President Trump said none of the documents would be redacted. You'd be able to see what was on them.

But on a lot of them, you can see that familiar black rectangle, which is blocking out names and addresses, kind of obvious things. But some documents are still redacted.

Putin responds to Trump's ceasefire plan

She took over a very difficult time for her personally and also a very difficult time for Versace. So the brand was co-founded by her brother Gianni in the 1970s. Donna Teller had no formal fashion training. She was his muse, essentially. So a lot of the early Versace designs were inspired by her, but she'd never designed a dress. She didn't know how to cut patterns, for example.
