First, we'll look at how recent events in Crimea may effect US relations with China and Japan. Then, voting has begun in one of the world's largest elections. Indian voters will elect 543 members of the lower house and a new president. It's expected to take several weeks for all voters to cast their ballots. We'll take a look at how the country's minorities are expected to vote. Finally, a look at another disputed region in the former Soviet Union.
