Russia orders 'peacekeeper' deployment in Ukraine

BBC World Service - Newsday, Russia orders 'peacekeeper' deployment in Ukraine

Ukraine's president accused Russia of wilfully violating its sovereignty.

The crisis over Ukraine deepens: the Russian President Vladimir Putin orders troops into eastern Ukraine after recognising two breakaway regions controlled by Russian-backed separatists. 

International reaction has been quick and damning with new sanctions being put in place. 

We'll head live to both Ukraine and the Netherlands to hear about the response to President Putin's plans.

Also: we'll hear why Colombia has decriminalised abortion - after a long campaign by activists.
