Emmanuel Macron heads to China in an attempt to woo Xi Jinping and make him use his influence with Moscow to end the war in Ukraine. The four-day work week is gaining traction across Europe, although it’s not always easy to roll out. Lastly, we go to Ghana, where a creative designer is upcycling second-hand clothing from Europe that would otherwise end up in landfill.

This weekly News programme is produced by the Franco-German broadcaster ARTE and made available in 8 languages through a European media partnership formed by El País (ES), Gazeta Wyborcza (PL), Internazionale (IT), Kathimerini (GR), Le Soir (BE), Telex (HU) in coordination with ARTE. The project has been made possible with EU funding within the framework of the „European Media Platforms” preparatory action.
