This is the Global News Podcast from the BBC World Service. I'm Andrew Peach, and in the early hours of Tuesday the 15th of January, these are our main stories.

President Biden is to remove Cuba from a list of countries the US considers state sponsors of terrorism. Also in this podcast, South Korean investigators clash with supporters of President Yoon Sung-yeol as they try to arrest him over his failed declaration of martial law. And why Starbucks in the US will no longer allow you to go into their coffee shops without buying anything.
