The Latest from Ukraine - is the tide turning?

As Russia faces embarrassment and humiliation with the St Petersburg Economic Forum taking place against a backdrop of plumes of smoke from burning oil refineries, Ukraine has been bracing against huge Russian air-raids targeting Kyiv. Nonetheless, Ukraine seems to be gaining an upper hand, with Russia unable to make progress and struggling to mobilise troops in the face of enormous casualties. To discuss all of this it was my pleasure to speak to long-term Kyiv-based correspondent Euan MacDonald.
