Undercover agents in US and abroad
The arrest of ten Russian agents working undercover in the US has reopened the debate about intelligence gathering. But as the Dutch secret services warn foreign students are infiltrating universities, we ask whether governments will ever give up their covert operations? Prof Ben de Jong says there are more spies than ever.

Vatican clashes with Belgian government
Belgium has urged the Vatican to stay out of its affairs, and leave it to conduct its own investigation of abuse in the Catholic church. The Holy See says Belgian police used 'Communist' tactics to investigate Bishops and the situation has escalated into a diplomatic row. Listen to a report by Vanessa Mock.

South Africa gripped by 'orange fever'
The Dutch football team's victory against Slovakia on Monday has raised the hopes of a nation backing their favourite players to win the quarter finals on Friday. RNW's correspondent Eric Beauchemin is in South Africa to talk to fans ahead of a much-anticipated match against Brazil.
