Zelensky continues to send out a firm message of defiance

Newsday

Available for 27 days

Mr Zelensky accused President Putin of trying to impose a different way of life on the world -- warning that the Russian leader would "not stop" at Ukraine. The conflict has led to hundreds of thousands of casualties. Mexico's most wanted drug lord, El Mencho, has been killed in a military operation. The defence ministry says he died while being flown to the capital, New Mexico. Violence has broken out in the western state of Jalisco following the operation. We'll also look at what Donald Trump's order to impose new tariffs means after the Supreme Court ruled against the previous order. We'll speak to Mr. Trump's former trade advisor.
