COP26: A deal is reached

After two weeks and a missed Friday evening deadline, nations in attendance at the UN climate summit have reached a deal.

Also in the programme: Facing severe security threats, Mali turns to an unlikely ally: Russia. We hear from Manu Lekunze, a specialist on African security, on the Mali government's strategy. And we speak to the first elected albino lawmaker, Overstone Kondowe, who took his seat in Malawi's parliament last week.

Joining Celia Hatton to discuss these and other issues are Loretta Napoleoni, Italian-born author and economist and Toby Green, Professor of Precolonial and Lusophone African History and Culture at King's College, London.
