And today is also Ukraine Independence Day.

It was on this day in 1991 that Ukraine was no longer part of the Soviet Union.

Since Russia invaded Ukraine in February, a third of Ukraine's population has been uprooted by the war - there are now an estimated six-and-a-half-million refugees across Europe. Many of them have been re-homed here in the UK.

It's 31 years since Ukraine gained independence and there will be a gathering in centenary square later to mark the occasion.

We have Angelika Frankowska, one of the organisers, in the studio.
