The move to exclude ZTE and Huawei brings Canada in line with its intelligence partners in the US, UK, Australia and New Zealand. We ask Canadian technology journalist Takara Small why the country took a long time to impose the ban. Also in the programme, food delivery drivers in the United Arab Emirates have been on strike, concerned at the rising price of petrol. We find out more from the 大象传媒's Sameer Hashmi. With Europe attempting to wean itself off Russian energy following the invasion of Ukraine, coal power stations have increased output in recent months. The 大象传媒's George Thomas reports on how it will impact the continent's ambitious targets to end coal power generation by the middle of the decade. Plus, following the death of the Greek film composer Vangelis, who among other things created the famous theme tune for Chariots of Fire, we examine his legacy with the Athens-based journalist Nikki Kitsantonis.

Today's edition is presented by Mike Johnson, and produced by Sarah Hawkins, Faarea Masud, and Elizabeth Hotson.
