Trump phones the BBC
President Trump has told the BBC that "he's not done" with Putin. He spoke to Gary O'Donoghue a day after he approved billions of dollars of new arms transfers to Ukraine.
US President Donald Trump has given Russia 50 days to agree to a ceasefire in Ukraine or he's threatening trade tariffs of one hundred per cent. Will this be enough to persuade Vladimir Putin to halt the fighting? And in an exclusive BBC interview, the US president also talked about Nato, the attempted assassination attempt while he was on the campaign trail, and he also reflected on the impact he thought he has had since he returned to the White House.
And a leading aid agency, Médecins Sans Frontières, says that three of its workers who died during the war in Tigray were targeted and killed by Ethiopian government forces.
