Belgian king returns artefacts to DRC

Newshour - A podcast by BBC World Service

This rare royal visit to the Democratic Republic of Congo marks a new direction for the Belgian monarchy as it examines its role in past atrocities carried out against the Congolese people. We hear from the king's aunt, Princess Esmeralda. Also on the programme: the head of the International Atomic Energy Agency, Rafael Grossi, hits out at allegations of collusion with Russia; and an interview with Steve Reich, one of the most influential names in music in the United States.
