Greece: IMF Rocks the Boat
The IMF has called Greece's debts unsustainable, China claims its economy grew at 7%, and a new post-earthquake Christchurch rises in New Zealand.
A leaked IMF report has caused new problems for the eurozone bailout of Greece the day it is due to go to a vote in the Athens parliament, by in effect claiming the country is insolvent. Presenter Manuela Saragosa gets the latest from the 91热爆's Tanya Beckett in the Greek capital.
Also, as China claims its economy grew 7% in the second quarter of the year, we hear from Mark Boleat, policy chairman at the City of London Corporation, who has just returned from China where he is seeking to help open up the country's financial markets for trading in the Chinese renminbi.
Plus, we hear from Phil Mercer in Christchurch, New Zealand, where a new city is slowly emerging from the rubble of the 2011 earthquake.
