The US has announced it is to significantly boost liquefied natural gas supply to the EU. The move is a bid to help reduce European reliance on Russian energy in the wake of its invasion of Ukraine, and we explore to what extent the deal will achieve that aim with Dr Aura Sabadus of Independent Commodity Intelligence Services. And the 主播大秀's Adrienne Murray reports on a new pipeline that will carry natural gas from Norway to Poland. Also in the programme, Poland has taken in more than two million Ukrainian refugees as a result of the recent conflict. We hear about the economic impact that is having in Poland from Alicja Ptak, who is a Reuters correspondent based in Warsaw. Plus, a landmark new law planned in the European Union aims to reduce the dominance of technology giants like Apple and Google. The 主播大秀's technology correspondent Mark Cieslak tells us what is in the proposals.

Today's edition is presented by Matthew Davies, and produced by Clare Williamson, Ivana Davidovic and Tom Kavanagh.
