The war in Ukraine continues. In Turkey, a proposal aimed at bringing that war to an end was discussed by Turkish president Recep Tayyip Erdogan and Russia's Vladimir Putin - we have reaction from Ukraine's deputy Prime Minister Olha Stefanishyna. Meanwhile, Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelensky spoke to the German parliament on Thursday in an effort to build support for tougher action against Russia. Germany relies on Russian gas, oil and coal and is still paying the Kremlin hundreds of millions of dollars a day - we speak to Tagesspiegel's energy journalist Jakob Schlandt and hear from Lord Browne, former chief executive at BP. The war is taking a toll on the global economy too and the OECD has given its first assessment of the likely damage. Laurence Boone, chief economist at the OECD, tells us more. The BBC's Frey Lindsay looks at how climate change is threatening lives and livelihoods on islands in the South Pacific, and Spotify gets into the NFT space, as investor and enthusiast Peta Cooper explains. Throughout the programme Jon Bithrey is joined by Alexander Kaufman, senior reporter at Huffpost in New York and by Emily Feng, Beijing correspondent for NPR.
