The UN Emergency Relief Coordinator has held what has been described as “very positive” talks with the authorities of Ukraine on how to provide assistance to displaced people in the country.

Valerie Amos is on a four-day visit to the country to see how the conflict in the eastern part of the country has affected people.

The UN estimates that currently 190, 000 people have been displaced by fighting between government troops and rebel fighters in that region.

Ms. Amos spoke with Elena Vapnitchnaia about her visit and what she has been doing in Ukraine.
