Business Matters: West eyes more Russia sanctions1 15 April 14

Tue, 15 Apr 14

The EU and the US say they will impose2 "further costs" on Russia over its actions in Ukraine, as unrest continues in the east of the country. Officials in Chile say it could take more than 20 days to extinguish3 a deadly forest fire in the hills around the port city of Valparaiso. We get the latest from our reporter there. As Donna Tartt's "Goldfinch" wins the Pulitzer prize for literature, we ask whether this prestigious4 prize helps book sales. Plus we're joined in the studio by special guest Nicholas Wood who runs "Political Tours" a holiday company which takes travellers around political hotspots. And Financial Times reporter Anjili Raval joins us from New York.
