Russia warns US and its allies against arming Ukraine

Russia has warned the United States and its allies against supplying arms to Ukraine saying doing so could lead to "unpredictable consequences."

The head of the World Food Programme says humanitarian organisations are finding it difficult to reach out to those in need of aid in Ukraine cities and towns.

Also in the programme: An update on China's biggest city Shanghai and its fight against rising cases of Covid-19.

Joining Celia Hatton to discuss these and other topical issues of the day are Rokhaya Diallo, a French journalist, author, filmmaker and an activist for minority rights and racial and religious equality and Colleen Graffy, a former United States Deputy Assistant Secretary of State and now an associate professor of law at Pepperdine University, Caruso Law School in the US.
