From the BBC World Service: G-7 leaders say the pledge will offer lower-income countries a new source of infrastructure finance and an alternative to Chinese loans from the "Belt and Road" initiative.

And, WhatsApp says it will resist attempts by governments to weaken end-to-end encryption of messages.
