BBC World Service - Weekend, Amazon forest takes centre stage in Brazil election

Amazon forest becomes a key issue in Brazil's upcoming general election.

The Amazon forest has become one of the main issues in Brazil's upcoming election.

The latest on voting in the discredited plebiscite organised by Russia in occupied Ukrainian territory.

Plus, a rare interview with a young Russian who says he would rather go to prison than answer President Putin's call to serve in the military.

Joining Julian Worricker to discuss these and other topical issues of the day are Lina Khatib the Director of the Middle East and North Africa Programme at the foreign affairs thinktank, Chatham House and Silio Boccanera a London-based Brazilian journalist, who's spent almost 40 years as a foreign correspondent.
