BBC World Service - Newshour, Brexit talks resume but obstacles remain

Trade talks between the EU and UK resume today, but there’s no clear path in sight

Trade talks between the EU and UK  resume today, but there’s no clear path in sight.

Representatives from the EU and UK resume post-Brexit trade negotiations today. They were paused on Friday with both sides citing what they called 'significant divergences'. So can a deal be done? We talk to Philip Rycroft, a former head of the UK’s Brexit department. 

Also on the programme: after US government employees working in Cuba complained of a series of mysterious illnesses, the first official investigation says the cause was most likely directed radiowaves; and how a tiny amount of asteroid could help us understand how the solar system was formed.
