Today on the show: after Syrian rebels took Damascus, Fareed is joined by Natasha Hall, senior fellow at the CSIS Middle East Program, and Karim Sadjadpour, senior fellow at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, to discuss what the fall of Assad’s regime means for Syria and the region.
Then, former senior CIA and State Department official Jung Pak speaks with Fareed about South Korea’s brief period of martial law this week, why President Yoon decided to make the declaration, and what might come next.
Finally, Anne Applebaum, staff writer at The Atlantic, joins the show to discuss the unrest in Georgia and Romania, and Russia’s widening influence in Europe.
