Parents separated from children at border missing
Parents of 545 children separated from their parents at the US-Mexico border are missing.
The American Civil Liberties Union says the parents of 545 children separated from their families at the US border, as part of the Trump administration's "zero tolerance" policy, cannot be traced. About two-thirds of those parents have been deported back to their country of origin, according to a court filing.
Also in the programme: Coronavirus cases continue to rise in the US.
Joining Paul Henley to discuss these and other issues is Matina Stevis-Gridneff, the Brussels correspondent for The New York Times, covering the European Union and Oliver McTernan, co-founder and director of Forward Thinking.
