Can the UN end the war?

The United Nations boss travels to Moscow to discuss peace with Putin.

Victoria Derbyshire and Vitaly Shevchenko are joined by Lyse Doucet, BBC Chief International Correspondent, who presents Ukrainecast for the first time.

They discuss the prospect of a diplomatic solution to the conflict as the United Nations' Secretary General Antonio Guterres visits Moscow for talks with Russian Foreign Minister Lavrov and President Putin.

We hear from a woman in close contact with fighters in the Azovstal steel plant in Mariupol, who says water and food is running low.

Also on the podcast, BBC defence correspondent Jonathan Beale talks about reporting from the Donbas.

Today's Ukrainecast was made by Estelle Doyle with Chris Flynn and Osman Iqbal. The technical producer was Hannah Montgomery. The editor was Jonathan Aspinwall.
