Newsday

Available for over a year

There are now no Australian journalists left in China after the ABC's Bill Birtles and the Australian Financial Review's Mike Smith were forced to leave after being questioned. Another opposition leader is disappeared in Belarus - bundled into the back of a van in broad day light. And we head to Ukraine to hear how its climate is radically changing.... with little snow in winter and now the lakes are shrinking.
