Ukraine Russia peace talks

Newsday

Available for 7 days

Ukraine and Russia are to resume peace talks in Abu Dhabi today, under the auspices of the United States. President Zelensky has said Russian air-strikes on Ukraine showed Moscow was choosing terror over diplomacy. We get the view of the Norwegian foreign minister. Seif al Islam Gaddafi - the son of the late Libyan leader Moammar Gaddafi - has been killed in Western Libya. And thousands of documents related to the late convicted sex offender, Jeffrey Epsteine, have been removed from official websites. It follows complaints by victims that their identities had been compromised. But what are we learning from the millions of new files? We speak to a group of citizen journalists trying to make sense of it all. Presenters: James Copnall and Anne Soy.
