European leaders have agreed a $54bn funding deal for Ukraine, overcoming objections from Hungary. The government in Ukraine described the package as 'a guarantee for victory'. We get reaction from Estonia and Kyiv.

Also in the programme: we report from Cambodia where waste from the international fashion industry is adding to pollution; and Pokemon with AK47s - how a violent satire of the Japanese franchise became one of the fastest-selling independent video games ever.
