In 1975, Jose Ramos-Horta, the then foreign minister of the newly-liberated nation of East Timor, was sent by his country's prime minister to New York. By the time his plane landed in the US, his country had been invaded and annexed by Indonesia.
In a revealing interview, Sir David Frost travels to East Timor to meet the Nobel laureate and hear his remarkable story.
"I got involved in politics by [an] accident of history," Ramos-Horta says.
