US support arrives in Ukraine

BBC World Service - Weekend, US support arrives in Ukraine

As US-Russia talks drag on, military support comes to Ukraine

As talks between Russia and the US amount to little more than the promise of continued conversation, military aid has arrived in Kyiv. 

Also in the programme, a week after a giant underwater volcano erupted near Tonga, the first aid ships have arrived to the island nation. And, in the UK, the prime minister is accused of blackmail by his own members of parliament.   

To discuss this and more, Rebecca Kesby is joined by Peter Neumann, Professor of Security Studies at Kings College London, and Rosamund Urwin, Media Editor of the Sunday Times newspaper.
