International efforts to isolate Russia continue. The EU is set to impose sanctions on people and banks associated with the Kremlin and with Belarus, Russia's ally. The UK's Foreign Secretary Liz Truss is in the US and was speaking alongside Secretary of State Antony Blinken as Ukraine repeats its request for military help, particularly in the form of no-fly zones. On that topic we speak to Professor Peter Harris of the Department of Political Science at Colorado State University. Canada was, until very recently, home to the biggest population of Ukrainians outside of the country. We hear from Victor Getmanchuk of the Canada Ukraine Foundation. In Uttar Pradesh in northern India, millions will vote in an election dominated by talk of Hindu nationalism in a country with the second largest Muslim population in the world. The BBC's Rajini Vaidyanathan reports. Another election, this time in South Korea, has been narrowly won by the conservative opposition candidate. We get the latest from the BBC's Laura Bicker. We talk wet markets with Dr Michael Worobey of the University of Arizona and Peter Knights of Wildaid, while the BBC's Ed Butler tracks down the superyatchs of the super rich. Throughout the programme we're joined by Sushma Ramachandran, an economics writer based in Delhi, and Ralph Silva of Yorkville University in Toronto.
