Small island states demand compensation at COP27 summit

Small island states facing threats from climate change make demands for compensation.

At the UN Climate summit, in Egypt, small island nations get to make demands for demands for compensation, as they face the most critical threats of all.

Also, there is happiness and excitement among residents of Kherson, after Ukrainian troops re-entered the southern city. Russian ones seem to have gone - but MPs send a warning.

Joining Paul Henley to discuss these and other issues are Mary Fitzgerald, non-resident scholar of the Middle East Institute, based in Washington DC. She works on the Mediterranean and focuses on Libya; and Andrew Small, Senior transatlantic fellow with the German Marshall Fund.
