In the Kremlin, presidents of Russia and France agreed to cooperate more closely in the fight against terrorism. Their countries were exchanging intelligence on Islamic State and coordinate air strikes in Syria. But this was not the grand coalition against terror which President Hollande had called for after the Paris attacks. The kind of broad anti-terrorist alliance that would include America. The US remains deeply suspicious of Moscow's intentions in Syria and the feeling is mutual.

President Putin has sharply criticized the United States which he says fail to prevent Turkey shooting down a Russian jet on Tuesday saying the US knew about the plane's movement.

The head of International Athletics Sabastian Coe says he has ended his association with Nike because it was interfering with his efforts to clean up the sport. Lord Coe has been under pressure to resign since being appointed president of the IAAWF. Alex Capstick reports. His decision comes two days after a BBC investigation suggested he had lobbied his predecessor Lamine Diack for Eugen to hold 2021 World Championships. It was chosen without the normal bidding process. Nike has close links with the American city. Its headquarter is just outside nearby Portland. Lord Coe insisted his departure from the sports-wear giant was nothing to do with that. He denied there had been a conflict of interest, but admitted his role in the firm had become a distraction.
