From Morning Report, 7:38 am on 16 September 2022

China's leader Xi Jinping and Russia's Vladimir Putin have met for the first time since Russia invaded Ukraine.

But it appears the Chinese leader has raised questions and concerns about the war which has killed tens of thousands of people and caused widespread pressure on the global economy.

The pair met in Uzbekistan to discuss the war at a summit that aims to show an "alternative" to the Western world according to the Kremlin.
