All eyes are on Hamas as Donald Trump gives it three or four days to respond to his proposed peace plan. The deal would end the war, see hostages returned, Israeli troops pulled out of Gaza, and Trump leading an interim Government. It's been supported by our Foreign Minister Winston Peters as well as European and Middle Eastern leaders. CBS Jerusalem correspondent Linda Gradstein told Ryan Bridge there's been very little indication of what Hamas will do. She says initial reports suggest Hamas is leaning towards accepting the deal, and they're under a lot of pressure from Qatar. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The government has decided against recognising a Palestinian state. Foreign minister Winston Peters argues that the move would be counter-productive, but he retains the "when, not if" stance.

Virginia Evans joins Carol Fitzgerald to talk about her debut novel, THE CORRESPONDENT. Virginia always saw the book as having an epistolary format, and she wrote it as readers are seeing it, with one letter after another. Carol thought this style worked for the storytelling as it allowed for pacing and for different aspects of Sybil's life, and the world as she knows it now, to be explored. Virginia loved that Carol picked up on one detail that no one else has mentioned in an interview or a review. Carol listened to the audiobook recording, which features a 13-person ensemble cast, and enjoyed it so much that it's a Bookreporter Bets On selection in audio. It already has been named an AudioFile Earphones Award Winner and an Audible Best of the Year (So Far) selection. In a moment of what seemed like kismet, THE CORRESPONDENT was announced as a New York Times bestseller a few hours after Carol and Virginia spoke. As it was published in April, and the interview was recorded in September, it shows that the book has been growing its readership over the past five months. Amazing!

US President Donald Trump announced an acquisition of social media platform Tiktok - a platform that is owned by Chinese software company ByteDance. The President said that the deal was a closed case, however Asia business correspondent Peter Lewis told Ryan Bridge that there is more to be done. He said that although Washington has approved their side of the deal, Beijing and ByteDance are more guarded on their position. 'No representatives from ByteDance were present at the signing.

Former French president Nicolas Sarkozy claims his court case is politically motivated. He's been sentenced to five years in prison after being found guilty of criminal conspiracy, relating to illicit funds from the late Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi. He was acquitted of all other charges. Europe correspondent Vincent McAviney told Francesca Rudkin it's unclear whether he will spend the full five years in prison.

China's economy continues to slow down after months of decline, and retail sales and industrial production are at their lowest levels of the year. Falling property prices are also to blame, with house prices in Beijing down 19% from last year.
