WBR: Greece's Debt Deadline Approaches

Tue, 2 Jun 15

Greece owes its creditors1 300 million euros, payable2 by Friday, and a further 1.2bn euros by the end of the month. We speak to Christos Michelos, a political correspondent based in Athens. Tobacco companies in Canada are ordered to pay millions in compensation to smokers3. We hear from Martin Blais, who is part of the class action lawsuit4, and whose father died of lung cancer in 2012. And a list of the world's top 50 restaurants has been announced - our reporter Elizabeth Hotson meets the winners. And in breaking news, the embattled President of FIFA announces an extraordinary congress to select a successor to the post.
