BBC World Service - Newshour, Baltimore residents defend city after President Trump's criticism

The President described Baltimore as a "rodent-infested mess"

Democratic House speaker Nancy Pelosi has accused US President Donald Trump of "racist attacks" in his tweets about African-American lawmaker Elijah Cummings. The president described Mr Cummings' majority-black district in Baltimore as somewhere that “no human being would want to live”.

Also in the programme: President Ashraf Ghani's running mate has been injured in an attack on the first day of campaigning for Afghanistan's presidential election and we hear the reaction from the home town of Tour de France winner Egan Bernal.
