I'm Krasi Twig from the Global Jigsaw podcast
on the BBC World Service where we are asking how Russia is transforming occupied Eastern Ukraine.
The status of the self proclaimed Donetsk
and Luhansk people's republics is far less clear cut than it seems
and independent reporting from there,
extremely difficult.
The Global Jigsaw looks at the world through the lens of its media.

BBC Sounds music radio podcasts it's.
1,100 days since Russia began its full scale invasion of Ukraine.
Sir Keir Starmer has been meeting President Trump in Washington.
Some friends of the podcast, James Landale and Lyse Doucet,
along with presenter James Cook
and Newsnight's Nick Watt have recorded an episode of Newscast following
that meeting.
And we thought you might like to hear that chat.
We'll be back tomorrow with a normal edition of UkraineCast reflecting on both Sir Keir Starmer's
and President Zelenskyy's visits to Washington.
So please send in your questions if you have them.
