We discuss what the future of the EU might look like following a report by former Italian prime minister, Enrico Letta. Also in the programme: Oscar Guardiola-Rivera on the importance of Brazil president Lula’s visit to Bogotá and Fiona O’Brien from Reporters without Borders explains the threats to Iranian journalists globally. Plus: we ask why the UAE is so unprepared for flooding and speak to architect Matteo Corbellini at Salone del Mobile.
