Trump to Reveal Infrastructure Plan

World Business Report

Available for over a year

President Trump will unveil his plans for infrastructure spending over the next decade. He wants individual states - and private companies - to meet some of the cost, which the Democrats oppose. We speak to Diana Furchtgott-Roth, a former economic adviser to President Trump. Speculation is rife in South Africa that President Jacob Zuma could be out of office within days. We get the latest from the BBC's Matthew Davies. And we hear about Norway's innovative method of recycling plastic bottles. (Picture: A work site stands next to the Brooklyn Bridge in New York City.
