Ukrainians head to the polls

Ukrainians choose a new president; voting in North Macedonia; Serbia's EU bid

Ukraine heads to the polls to choose a new president, but will it be the chocolate king or the comedian?

Also in the programme: voting starts shortly too in North Macedonia's presidential election. It’s the first poll in the country since it changed its name.

Plus, as Britain prepares to leave the EU, Serbia is trying to join the bloc, but some in the country say it is not ready for membership.

Joining Julian Worricker to discuss these and other issues are Emma Beals, journalist, writer, and researcher focused on Syria and Mark Stephens, an international lawyer, former head of Commonwealth Lawyers Association.
