Hi guys,
Here in China we don't have many foreign news channels. So, I very often listen to the BBC World Service ... and in particular to its pod casts. So, if you're not desperate to see Zeinab Badawi and Andreas Mavroyiannis and/or if you miss the show on BBC World, then you might like to listen to this:

As Cyprusishome states, thanks to Zeinab Badawi's style, the interview is indeed quite amusing at times.

I think she is one of BBC's best and incisive interviewers. I think she knew more than the GC had thought cos she did catch him out.

BBC hardtalk today 6/11/12 was good too - The Egyptian prime minister was getting seriously uncomfortable in his seat when asked about current security issues, women's rights, no parliament yet, no resolving of the rubbish mountain problems, Sharia law being implemented, or not plus other current affair topics for here in Egypt. The BBC interviewer was not being 'fobbed off', good on him.

Re: Hard Talk on BBC News
many thanks ian for the link
badawi is I believe of sudanese descent:
her obvious knowledge of cyprus may have been shaped
to some extent by her own point of view, just perhaps...
the old chestnut about cyprus problems being the reason
turkey is not being admitted to the eu is trotted out yet
again, but it is always worth remembering turkey's original
application to join europe was on 30th july 1959
there is at the moment a game of "chicken" being played
out between cyprus and the "troika"...it will be interesting
to see whether in the end the imf, eu and the ecb can be
forced to allow nicosia more liberal conditions for their bail
-out in order to maintain confidence in the single currency
