Today, delegates from the US and Russia are meeting for another round of talks on the war in Ukraine.

Adam is joined by North America editor Sarah Smith and diplomatic correspondent James Landale.
Plus, David Dimbleby tells Adam all about the free market revolution ahead of the release of his new podcast ‘Invisible Hands’.
