Is new Ukraine support a 'game-changer?'...

SKY NEWS
About this episode
In a show of unity aimed at President Putin, G7 leaders meeting in Italy this week finally agreed to a deal to use profits from frozen Russian assets to provide around $50bn (£40bn) worth of support to Ukraine. And in another significant announcement, President Biden signed a 10-year bilateral security deal between the US and Ukraine which Kyiv is calling 'historic'. 
  
On this episode, Niall Paterson explores the impact these deals will have for Ukraine in its war against Russia with international editor Dominic Waghorn. 
  
Plus, Rob Harris, our sports correspondent, joins Niall to talk us through what to look out for as the European football championships get under way.
