US & UK: Unshakeable support for Ukraine

Britain's Prime Minister sits down with the US President to discuss Ukraine.

UK Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer did not signal any decision on allowing Ukraine to use long-range missiles to hit targets inside Russia after talks with US President Joe Biden in Washington. Sir Keir said the pair had had a "productive" discussion on Ukraine that concentrated on "strategy", rather than a "particular step or tactic". We hear the view from Moscow and the US.

Also on the programme: Devastating floods in Myanmar push its military ruler to make a rare appeal for foreign aid; and an outpouring of sadness and anger as Uganda buries its olympic star, Rebecca Cheptegei, whose coach tells us her life could have been saved.
