'Not sure it will do anything': Ukrainian soldiers realistic ahead of peace summit

"We don't have time to watch the news" says Oleksandr, a member of a Ukrainian tank unit near the Donetsk region frontline, ahead of a peace summit due to take place in Switzerland.

"All the guys just want to come home alive" he adds.
