Description

A new draft of a global climate agreement at the COP29 summit proposes rich countries provide two hundred and fifty billion dollars annually over the next decade to help poorer nations combat global warming. Africa's delegation denounced the figure as "unacceptable".

Also, is Russia giving North Korea weapons -- as well as oil -- in return for Pyongyang's support in Ukraine?

And we will hear about some brand new recordings of the jazz great Miles Davis that have come to light.
