From Russia Without Love?

Things are heated with Russia at the moment, but what do young Russians think of the UK? Newsbeat reporter Will Chalk finds out. Are we enemies? If so, how do we make friends?

To say tensions are high between Russia and the UK at the moment would be an understatement.

Russia has been accused of a lot - everything from poisoning spies to peddling fake news and trying to influence elections.

But what do they think of Britain? To find out, Newsbeat reporter Will Chalk spent a week there.

He meets real young Russians, from an arts collective formed around a shared love of Vladamir Putin, to a 26-year-old who makes his living by climbing high buildings without a safety harness.

Are our countries enemies? And if so, how are we supposed to build bridges?
