You're listening to the Globalist, first broadcast on 30 January 2025 on Monocle Radio,
the Globalist in association with UBS Live.
Hello from London.
This is the Globalist with me, Emma Nelson.
A very warm welcome to today's program.
Coming up, a plane carrying more than 60 people collides with an army helicopter and crashes in Washington D.C.
we'll bring you the latest.
Also ahead, despite efforts to keep them on board, Niger, Mali and Burkina Faso abandon icoas.
We'll look at what it means for their neighbours
and also examine whether this marks a moment of declining influence for France.
France has become toxic in the region and its loss of standing is Russia's gain.
More from our Paris bureau chief a little later on.
Also ahead on today's show.
And she's airborne.
Boom's prototype goes supersonic.
Now, how close are we to the return of super fast commercial aviation?
We investigate the global Importance of the U.S.
national Institutes of Health.
Head to Copenhagen Fashion Week and hear the business news too.
That's all coming up on the Globalist live from London.
