of 19 of the world's wealthiest economies — and the european union. it accounts for 85 % of global economic output and two—thirds of its population. it's a key forum for international issues — but there are deep divisions on some subjects, such as the war in ukraine. mr sunak�*s indian heritage will attract extra attention — he says he feels like the country's "son—in—law". the bbc�*s south asia correspondent samira hussain reports. when he arrived he was greeted with dancers, of course the british high commissioner was there to greet him along with other indian dignitaries including the minister of state. now, before mr sunak got on the plane, he did tweet he was heading to the 620 summit and made it very clear what his three priorities are — stabilising the global economy, building international relationships and supporting the most vulnerable, but what he also mentioned was the fact that russia's leader is not going to be here and he reiterated the fact that they are going to be showing strong support for ukraine. and of course, that may work against his agenda with india which is to set up a trade deal, because india has been reluctant to show full support for ukraine. absolutely, and i think there's a few threads that are happening here with regards to the uk and with india. of course, when the two leaders meet tomorrow, they will certainly be talking about the trade deal. remember of course that the two sides were hoping to eke out a trade deal before the 620 summit but that did not happen but so that will certainly be part of the discussions during the bilateral meeting between prime minister modi and prime minister sunak tomorrow. of course the other part of it is how to have a joint statement condemning russia's actions in ukraine. of course there are some of 620 members who have been reluctant, india being one of them. there is a real push here by the indian government to try and eke out some sort of joint statement and there are rumours that the language with regards to the ukraine war may be softening but as of yet that is still rumours. clearly there is the absence of representation from china and russia, and particularly china in this context, although the premier is due to arrive, it suggests that it really takes some of the energy, some of the momentum away from this because china's economy is so important. yes, no, and that is absolutely true and i think that was sort of the feeling. when it comes to russia's president vladimir putin not attending, of course there are other issues there, his arrest warrant issued by the international criminal court, so there were some concerns with him coming here although they did say his schedule was frankly too busy. with president xi not coming as well, remember relations between china and india right now are fraught, they have been getting quite testy over the last few years and just recently there was a diplomatic incident in which the chinese government released a new map and put part of indian territory, included it as part of china. that is being seen by some people as the reason for the snub, the strong diplomatic reaction from india, as to why china will not be appearing here. suhasini haidar, the diplomatic correspondent with the newspaper the hindu, says the big question facing the global leaders in delhi is how to find common ground. well, absolutely as the leaders do start arriving and we are expecting prime minister of the uk, rishi sunak, in india, shortly, we are expecting the us president biden here later this evening, and all about 16 of 20 leaders will be here. the big question on everyone�*s mind really will be can they forge a joint declaration which is right now at an impasse over ukraine? the sherpas have tried, it is now the leaders�* turn to try, as they did in indonesia, to find some language they can all be comfortable with. we have to bear in mind that this is taking place in that context in india, which is itself, one could argue, sitting on the fence. well, certainly, but you know, there have been things that india has tried to do over the last year. one of the sort of priorities for india, the sherpas have been saying, is to ensure the ukraine war doesn't take over the entire centre stage of the 620, so you know, the pitch for the global south to look at development issues, the pitch for the african union membership, these are all new initiatives by the indian government to try and say, look, the 620 is an economic platform, we don't want it overrun by this geopolitical issue. however, in the sherpa meetings, we have seen very little common ground between the two sides and remember, the indonesian presidentjoko widodo actually travelled to moscow and to kyiv to try and convince the two sides of the need for the 620 to come to some kind of arrangement. he also invited ed the president of ukraine, zelensky, to address the 620 at one point. so far, india has not agreed to president zelensky�*s request to be represented or to be, you know, appear virtually at the indian summit, and neither has prime minister modi made an effort to go to either moscow or kyiv. instead, holding the position that india's position is for diplomacy and dialogue, that is what we want to see here, we want everyone to move towards that middle ground. it is a tricky tightrope but it is one that india has been trying to run for the last year. let's turn to trade, all—important particularly at the moment, given the global downturn, and inflation worries and so on. rishi sunak would very much like to strike a deal with india but so far, that ambition has proved elusive. well, that is absolutely right and it is notjust rishi sunak, before him we have seen the fta negotiations launch from what looked like near success to not coming through, even under prime minister liz truss�*s time a year ago, in fact they seemed to be just on the brink of announcing it when the truss government had its own domestic issue. now what we are hearing is that both sides have taken a more considered position on what kind of agreement they want, and of course, the big sticking points are the indian desire for much more leniency when it comes to services, to visas, to immigration, the british desire for more tariffs removed and for access, trade access to a number of indian areas, but what we are hearing more and more is that that deal will not be done until both sides are completely satisfied, so they are not going to paper over the cracks and announce something. prime minister sunak in an interview to an indian news agency a few days ago said we are still some way away, so i presume that means that barring any kind of a breakthrough when the two men get into a room, and i understand they are going to meet on saturday for a bilateral meeting, barring a breakthrough in that meeting, it looks like the fta will be a bit away. and i should add there are others in the queue watching the uk—india fta, so if that goes through, australia is looking to go ahead as well and canada is also in that. let's turn to the uk — and the search for a terrorism suspect who escaped a london prison has entered a third day. police have refused to rule out the possibility that daniel khalife left the country after his break—out on wednesday. he was awaiting trial on charges that included collecting information useful to an enemy state. the ukjustice secretary, alex chalk, says he wants the findings of an investigation into the incident by the end of the week. 0ur news reporter simonjones is following the story. the government says it wants answers and its commissioned no fewer than five separate investigations and reports into what happened. now, the first two of those are going to examine the events that took place on wednesday morning, how was daniel khalife able to get out of this jail by clinging to the bottom after food delivery truck, that is one line of investigation. they also want to know why he was in this prison, a category b prison, and not a more secure category a prison, given the seriousness of the charges that he was facing, and those two initial investigations are due report back to the justice secretary by the weekend, so the findings could come as soon as today or perhaps tomorrow. it is unclear how much information the government will then release to the public. as regards the other investigations and reviews, there is going to be an independent overarching investigation into what happened, independent of the prison service, and also, two reviews looking generally about where terror prisoners are held, and also, another review looking at all the prisoners here in wandsworth to see if they are in the right level ofjail, in terms of security. so a lot for the investigators to get their teeth into and the government wanting answers quickly. simon, it has been pointed out that daniel khalife is a former soldier, so he may be skilled in this context, in a way that other people might not be, but also there's is a possibility that has been hinted at he may have been helped in his escape. yes, the police say they can't rule out the possibility that he might have had some help, inside the prison, to carry out this escape and also now that he has managed to breakfree he might be getting help from someone or people on the outside. the police also say they can't rule out the possibility that he has already fled the country. now, we know increased checks are taking place, at places like eurotunnel for the channel tunnel and the port of dover, so all cars are being individually searched, so drivers are having to get out their car, open the boot to check that someone isn't stowing away like daniel khalife in theory he could be doing, given he has a history of hiding in or at least under vehicles, so questions about what might have happened. in some ways the police are talking up his military past, they say he has a degree of sophistication and ingenuity and that may help him avoid the capture of police but it also might be seen as a bit of an explanation for the metropolitan police about why there is little progress in this case more than two days after he escaped from the prison here. the french state council — the highest administrative court in the country has rejected a bid to overturn the recent ban on wearing the islamic dress known as the abaya in schools. education minister 6abriel attal announced the ban two weeks ago. a community group sought an injunction to prevent it from being applied. at least 67 girls were sent home from school in france this week after refusing to change out of garments schools believed were covered by the ban. one of former us president donald trump's trade advisers has been found guilty on two counts of criminal contempt of congress in a federal trial on thursday. peter navarro was found in contempt for refusing to co—operate with an inquiry into the january 6th attack on the us capitol. each count carries a maximum of one year in prison and a fine of up to $100,000. 0ur correspondent 6ary 0'donoghue has more. it was an incredibly short trial, lasting just two days, and the jury took just about six hours to come to its guilty verdict on both charges. now, those charges are contempt of congress, and that is because peter navarro failed to comply with a congressional subpoena from the january 6th committee to produce documents and to appear to give testimony. what they wanted to hear about was something called the green bay sweep, which was peter navarro�*s own name for a plan to overturn the election results, in congress, onjanuary 6th. now, he said he didn't have to give them the documents or appear because it was all covered by executive privilege, but the judge threw out that defence before the trial even started, so he was unable to run that, and really offered no defence in terms of his own case. after the court concluded, he appeared and said he would appeal the conviction. he could face up to a year in prison on each of the charges, and up to a $100,000 fine. we are expecting him to be sentenced in january. he is the second trump adviser to be charged on contempt of congress. steve bannon, of course, got four months for the same charges, but he is still at liberty because his appeal is pending. but here we are, once again, the president's men going to court and getting convicted. around the world and across the uk. this is bbc news. 6reek emergency services are still trying to rescue dozens of people

than 60 people were killed in attacks by islamist militants. military authorities say 64 people were killed in two separate attacks in the northeast of the country. a boat on the niger river and a military camp at bamba were targeted. 50 militants are also thought to have also been killed. with more on this, bbc world service africa editor richard hamilton. what more can you tell us about this attack and the mounting problem? the first attack and the mounting problem? tue: first attack attack and the mounting problem? tte: first attack was on a passenger boat on the river niger. islamist militants fired three rockets at the engine of this passenger boat and around 50 civilians were killed. and then after that, there was an attack on a military base also in a place called bamber, near the river as well. 15 malian soldiers were killed. the malian army said that they retaliated and killed 50 islamist militants but we haven't had any verification of that claim. but that has been a mounting problem since the beginning of this year? definitely. even in the last few minutes, we are getting breaking news of another attack of potomac vans are driven into a military army base in northern mali whether believed suicide attack. the security situation is getting much worse and we have seen these coups in west africa which have been prompted by the insecurity so we have had military regimes taking overin have had military regimes taking over in niger, burkina faso. they have been told to leave but that is just going to make things worse. these military leaders, the coup, are relying on wagner and their mercenaries to fight the islamist but the evidence is that wagner are committing atrocities and human rights abuses on the civilian population in the countryside in places like northern mali. and that is only radicalising people. and encouraging them tojoin is only radicalising people. and encouraging them to join these islamist groups which are affiliated to islamic states and al-qaeda. you mention the — to islamic states and al-qaeda. you mention the departure of peacekeeping forces there in mali and an upsurge in violence in response to that. why is it

young people didn't like the colonial legacy so there has been, they basically told the french at they basically told the french at the united nations to pack up their bags and there is towards russia. russia is not able to provide enough military assistance as well. so there are soviet powers being supplied such as helicopters, drains and planes, but the evidence is that the mercenaries on the ground, in mali, there is some 1500 mercenaries, that doesn't compare to the 13,000 united nations troops, so simply not enough firepower to repel the islamist. simply not enough firepower to
