A close aid of the North Korean leader Kim Jong-un is reported to be on his way to the United States amid a flurry of diplomacy ahead of possible summit. The South Korean news agency says Kim Yong-chol is due to arrive in Washington on Wednesday. Here's our correspondent Rupert Wingfield-Hayes. He's a very experienced adviser. He's a former spy chief. He's a former general and he accompanied Kim Jong-un on both of his recent trips to China to meet with President Xi Jinping. He accompanied Kim Jong-un's younger sister when she came to the winter Olympics in South Korea. The fact that he's now heading to the United States suggests that he is going to have some sort of meeting with senior US officials. And that suggests that things are picking up although that is no guaranette at all that the summit will take place.

因意大利政局动荡，金融市场的反响不尽如人意，意大利激进党“北方联盟”和“五星运动党”将投票反对组建技术官僚政府。在三月份的选举中，极右派“北方联盟”警告盟友西尔维奥•贝卢斯科尼不要支持过渡政府，前国际货币基金组织经济学家卡洛•科塔雷利试图组建该政府。旨在制定统一利比亚计划大会在巴黎召开，BBC北非记者罗娜•格瓦德。主要目的之一就是重新促成联合国提议，在今年年底之前举行全国和议会大选，利比亚一直处在水深火热之中。这次会议召集了利比亚的四支敌对派代表团，分别由在的黎波里的利比亚首相，在利比亚东部掌握军权的哈里发•哈夫塔，以及两大敌对议会大会主席。自从2011年卡达菲倒台后，不管是在地区、政治、军事还是部落之间，利比亚都处在分裂状态。
