Ukraine's president suggests Germany is focused on economic interests ahead of ending war. Jakob Schlandt is an energy and climate journalist for the German daily Tagesspiegel and discusses President Zelensky's concerns. Also in the programme, we hear from the chief economist of the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development, Laurence Boone, about the likely global economic impact of Russia's war in Ukraine. The historic shipping firm P&O Ferries, which operates services from the UK to a number of destinations has fired 800 seafaring staff and intends to replace them with agency workers. We get the background from the Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ's Dharshini David. Plus, a Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ investigation has found that dozens of social media influencers have been promoting illegal self-tanning products described as "dangerous" by leading dermatologists. We find out more from reporter Ellie Layhe.
