The US has targeted key allies of Russian President Vladimir Putin, including 17 senior government officials and seven oligarchs. We speak to Brian O'Toole, senior fellow at the Atlantic Council think tank in Washington, for the reasoning behind Trump's move. As the UK brings in a sugar tax on soft drinks, we hear from Dr Corinna Hawkes, director of the Centre for Food Policy at City University in London, about how successful the tax has been around the world. Plus, following the death of Japanese film-director Isao Takahata, we ask how he impacted the Anime industry.
