President Trump Prepared for Tense Nato Meeting

Tensions are rising between the US and its Nato allies over defence spending.

Tensions are rising between the US and its Nato allies over defence spending. We ask former US Ambassador to NATO Nicholas Burns to analyse what's at stake. Tesla has announced plans to build a factory in China in founder Elon Musk's biggest foreign expansion to date. Tasha Keeny at ARK Invest explains the significance of the move. Attention now turns to Europe for its response to the UK's new Brexit proposal. We get the views of Ilja Nothangel, of the German Chamber of Industry and Commerce, and further analysis from our regular economic commentator, Roger Bootle of Capital Economics. Also in the programme, the Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ's Roger Hearing reports from Mongolia on how the country is urbanising at a rapid pace.
