France Hosts Climate Summit

The event takes place on the two-year anniversary of the Paris climate accord.

The event takes place on the two-year anniversary of the Paris climate accord. We find out more from Samir Saran of India's Observer Research Foundation. Also in the programme, we explore what regulatory alignment with the EU will mean for the UK, after it emerged as a key element of last week's deal to move Brexit talks forward. Simon Boyd is managing director of steel maker REIDSteel, and Andrew Varga runs Seetru, which makes safety valves for industrial equipment. We take stock of progress towards US president Donald Trump's ambitions to reform and significantly cut taxes, with economist Irwin Stelzer of the Hudson Institute. Plus we have a special report from Greece, where the Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ's Ed Butler has been asking whether the eurozone's most troubled economy is showing signs of recovery.
