UK and EU 'Close to Brexit Breakthrough'

Duration: 26 minutes

There are indications an agreement on the first phase of Brexit talks could be struck. We get the latest from Brussels where British prime minister Theresa May has been meeting European Commission president Jean-Claude Juncker. Jennifer Rankin is Brussels correspondent for the UK's Guardian newspaper. Also in the programme, we hear about the challenging situation for youth unemployment in Mozambique, and discuss the causes with Antonio Francisco, director of research at the Institute of Social and Economic Studies. We find out why Nigeria's agriculture ministry believes yams could become a significant export for the country. Plus Malcolm White of the UK-based communications agency Krow Communications tells us why he thinks there is positive power in negative thinking. Show less
