  • Well, just for a moment, brushing aside the blizzard of Trump news in Beijing, they've been carrying out the biggest political meeting of the year.

  • Every year at this time there's a meeting called Yanghui, the two meetings, so it's the National People's Congress and the Chinese People's Consultative Conference.

  • But what's important about these is it sets the parameters for the year.

  • You get a real sort of insight into political thinking.

  • Foreign Minister Wang Yi set to Trump.

  • Thank you for that, Isabel.

  • We'll be checking in with our correspondent Petri Butsoff.

  • In a world Turned Upside Down, Sweden will be represented in the Eurovision Song Contest by Finland.
