| Summary |
SEX IN THE CITYHas Ukraine emerged from the former Soviet Union to become the illicit sex tourism capital of Europe?The statistics speak for themselves... 60,000 prostitutes; 2,500 street children, making it a hub for child pornography; a third of the population in poverty; one of the fastest growing HIV rates in the world; and drug and alcohol abuse rates amongst the highest in eastern Europe.Video journalist Nick Lazaredes has been investigating Ukraine's underworld and the social problems it's causing. He also meets the people trying to stop the sex trade in the face of violence and lack of interest from the authorities.THE ART OF POLITICSWith a floating island made out of stainless steel and a 'celestial trumpet' calling to the skies, a rural corner of New Zealand's North Island has become the unlikely home of one of the world's major sculpture collections.There are almost two dozen works of art nestling around 'The Farm' in the Kaipara countryside, owned by wealthy businessman and hard-line economic rationalist Alan Gibbs. Almost all of them were commissioned especially for the collection. The sculptors featured include Richard Serra, Anish Kapoor and Zhan Wang.See the amazing sight, captured on camera by video journalist Amos Roberts, and find out why Alan Gibbs thinks New Zealand is run like communist Cuba.You can also find out more about the sculptors and their work in Dateline's photo gallery.INTERVIEW WITH YOSSI BEILINThe disagreement between Israel and the United States over the building of Jewish settlements in disputed East Jerusalem has left relations between the two countries at the lowest point since 1975.So, as Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton prepare to meet in Washington, Dateline speaks to one of the key Israeli politicians involved in trying to solve the Middle East conflict.Yossi Beilin took part in years of negotiations, which ultimately led to the 2003 Geneva Initiative proposing changes to the borders of the West Bank, Gaza Strip and Israel as a solution to the dispute.He ultimately left government in 2008, but is still pursuing his mission for peace and advises the United States on the conflict.George Negus asks what now for the Middle East peace process, and can Beilin's work with America help heal the wounds between the two countries?
