Merkel makes last visit as chancellor to White House
German Chancellor Angela Merkel visits President Biden at the White House
With catastrophic floods back home in Germany, Chancellor Merkel is in Washington - with a big agenda to get through with her host, Joe Biden - including climate change. We speak to Matthias Matthijs who teaches at Johns Hopkins University's School of Advanced International Studies. Also in the programme, the Korean palm oil giant Korindo has been ejected from the world's leading green certification body, the Forest Stewardship Council, in the wake of a 成人快手 investigation. We find out more from the 成人快手's Rebecca Henschke. On UN Young Skills Day, we speak to Dimitris Lampros and Rania Vlachou of Swim Me, who have created a smart swimming cap and goggles that enable blind people to be more aware of where they are in a pool. Plus, the 成人快手's Russell Padmore reports on the challenges faced by pubs in Ireland, which have had to remain closed throughout most of the coronavirus pandemic. James Mayger from Bloomberg in Beijing joins us for commentary throughout the programme, alongside political journalist Erin Delmore in New York
