RUSSIA: Chaos broke on sets of a Russian talk show when a heated discussion turned into a battlefield, putting host Andrey Norkin in grip of guest Dmitriy Suvorov during live transmission.

The brawl came out of an emotional gist when German politician Andreas Maurer, during a discussion on the War in Donbass, said that the Ukrainian army killed children there.

Responding to which, Ukrainian guest Dmitriy Suvorov demanded photoproofs of it and called him ‘rascal’. The host came to Suvorov and grabbed him by shoulder and a fight broke out in turn.

One doesn’t often get to watch a political talk show turn into a fist fight, and this instant online hit from the episode of ‘Mesto Vstrechi’ (Meeting Place) attracted more than 150,000 views in less than 24 hours.
