Donald Trump’s second impeachment process begins

An impeachment trial would be the first against a former president

The historic second impeachment against former President Trump has begun in the US Senate, with constitutional arguments about the process itself. We hear the latest from Washington and speak to one of Mr Trump’s former political directors. Also in the programme: an advisor to Colombia's President Ivan Duque tells us why Colombia has granted legal status to almost a million undocumented Venezuelan migrants; and the United Arab Emirates successfully puts a probe into orbit around Mars.
