CNA Correspondent Podcast: Russia-Ukraine war - Two years on

Host Teresa Tang sits down with CNA's Lim Yun Suk who shares stories of locals from her recent trip to Ukraine.

It has been a grinding war. But two years after Russia invaded Ukraine, resilience has emerged as a key trait among Ukrainians. 

CNA’s Lim Yun Suk travelled to Ukraine to find out how robust the war effort has been, and how its economy is trying to post growth despite the conflict.
