Trump's racism row

Duration: 23 minutes

First broadcast: on BBC World Service East and Southern AfricaLatest broadcast: on BBC World Service Europe and the Middle East

The president was accused of using racist language about Democrat congresswomen. He says he's not racist, but crowds at one of his rallies chanted: 'Send her back!' Also in this edition: an outline peace deal in Sudan; China's disappointing growth figures; the race for space; and why you shouldn't say footballers are worth their weight in gold.
