BBC World Service - Weekend, More grain shipments leave Ukrainian ports

Grain shipments get the nod to leave war-torn Ukraine

Grain shipments get the nod to leave war-torn Ukraine.

Are grain shipments - finally out of Ukraine -  going to where they are needed most? We speak to UN's World Food Programme.

Also, a story of disinformation: How a self-proclaimed Queen of Canada who issues edicts such as non-payment of utility bills to her followers.

And the prime minister who knows how to party.  Finland's young Premier under fire.

Joining Anna Holligan to discuss these and other issues are Rachel Ombaka, Kenya subeditor for The Africa report, a news and current affairs publication covering the continent; and Ryan Heath, senior editor at Politico, the online news publication.
