C'est à Lomé, au Togo, que va se tenir, après-demain samedi, un nouveau sommet sur la RDC. En effet, le président Faure Gnassingbé a été désigné par l'Union africaine pour faire la médiation dans cette crise meurtrière. Autour du chef de l'État togolais, on attend de nombreux ministres africains des Affaires étrangères et les envoyés spéciaux des États-Unis et du Qatar. Ce sommet pourra-t-il empêcher une nouvelle offensive sur le terrain du M23 et de son allié rwandais ? Christian Moleka est le coordinateur de la Dynamique des politologues du Congo, la DYPOL. En ligne de Kinshasa, il répond à Christophe Boisbouvier RFI : Christian Moleka, ce sommet de Lomé ce 17 janvier 2026, est-ce qu'il peut en sortir quelque chose ? Christian Moleka : il peut en sortir une tentative de coordination des initiatives de médiation qui sont aujourd'hui à la fois africaines et internationales, qatariennes et américaines. Le Togo, qui représente l'Union africaine de la médiation, a depuis 2025 lancé l'initiative qui a pris du temps à s'implémenter. Et donc, il y a une nécessité de tenter de redonner sens à l'initiative, à la fois africaine, mais de coordonner également avec ce qu'il s'est fait à Doha et à Washington. Et donc, la rencontre peut aider à une clarification des rôles, redonner à l'Union africaine probablement une dynamique de dialogue interne et peut-être une dynamique régionale qui prendra en compte les autres acteurs comme l'Ouganda et le Burundi, qui n'ont jamais été pris en compte afin qu'elle ne marche pas, je dirais, sur les plates-bandes de Doha et de Washington. Avant ce sommet, le Congolais Félix Tshisekedi a fait plusieurs déplacements. Il est allé voir le Togolais Faure Gnassingbé à Lomé. Il est allé aussi rencontrer l'Angolais Joao Lourenço à Luanda. Le président angolais lui aurait fait des propositions intéressantes. De quoi pourrait-il s'agir ? Il peut s'agir de la volonté de relancer un dialogue interne, un dialogue national interne congolais. L'Angola qui aujourd'hui voit une rébellion qui peut s'étendre vers le Katanga et donc remettre en question les intérêts économiques du corridor de Lobito, a besoin d'un minimum de stabilité. Et donc, un processus de dialogue interne peut naître de la démarche angolaise. Parce que Kinshasa a refusé à ce jour de prendre l'initiative des évêques, notamment la démarche du pacte social. Et donc, une initiative angolaise qui porterait sur le dialogue national inclusif peut, pour Kinshasa, être un plan de rechange contre la dynamique interne portée par les évêques. Sur le fond du dossier, il y a une paix artificielle qui a été signée le 4 décembre à Washington par les présidents du Congo et du Rwanda en présence de Donald Trump. Mais quelques jours plus tard, les rebelles du M23 et leurs alliés rwandais se sont emparés de la ville d'Uvira, au Sud-Kivu. Qu'est-ce qu'il faut en déduire ? Il faut en déduire que le M23, qui reste l'acteur militaire souterrain, ne se sent pas lié par le processus de Washington et qu'on a un processus de Doha qui, à ce jour, est quelque peu en panne, puisqu'il ne marche pas. Et sans une complémentarité Doha-Washington, il sera très difficile d'avoir sur le terrain des solutions définitives tant que la donne M23 ne sera pas prise en compte. Et donc, la reprise des armes pour le M23, c'est un levier de pression pour pousser Kinshasa à revenir à la table de négociations et à entériner également Doha. Alors, après la prise d'Uvira au Sud-Kivu, le secrétaire d'État américain Marco Rubio a déclaré que c'était une claire violation de l'accord de Washington et que les États-Unis y répondraient. Sous-entendu, il y aurait des sanctions contre le Rwanda. Mais depuis un mois, les Américains n'ont pris aucune mesure. Qu'est-ce que cela vous inspire ? On peut penser déjà qu'il y a une pression sur l'administration américaine pour que les sanctions ne soient pas prises. À Kinshasa, on a pointé du doigt, sans le dire à haute voix, le Qatar, pour que des sanctions ne soient pas prises directement vis-à-vis du Rwanda. Mais on a également une administration américaine qui est, à ce jour, portée par d'autres crises et une attention de moins en moins tournée sur cette question congolaise, avec la dynamique qu'on a au Venezuela, mais également au Moyen-Orient avec l'Iran. Et vous pensez donc que pour les autorités congolaises, peut-être aussi pour les autorités burundaises, le Qatar fait pression sur les États-Unis pour qu'il n'y ait pas de sanctions contre le Rwanda ? Effectivement, je crois que pour Kinshasa et le Burundi, la lecture est très claire : le Qatar a certainement dû peser sur la décision américaine pour ne pas sanctionner le Rwanda. Il y a des enjeux économiques derrière. Le Qatar a énormément investi au Rwanda et donc des sanctions toucheraient aux intérêts également économiques du Qatar. Comment voyez-vous les jours à venir, d'ici la fin de ce mois sur le terrain ? Un enlisement ou peut-être une nouvelle offensive militaire de la part des rebelles du M23 et de leurs alliés rwandais ? Le M23 est en mode observation aujourd'hui. Après la pression américaine sur Uvira, ils laisseront passer la pression. Mais chaque partie s'organise militairement et construit un narratif pour justifier la suite des combats qui pourrait s'étendre cette fois-ci vers le Katanga. L'une des stratégies du Congolais Félix Tshisekedi, c'est d'obtenir un clair soutien des États-Unis contre le Rwanda. Est-ce que cette stratégie peut marcher ou non ? Les États-Unis, pour l'instant, se sont intéressés aux minerais du Congo et ont besoin d'un minimum de stabilité pour faire le partenariat économique. Et donc, c'est un levier sur lequel Kinshasa peut appuyer. Le vrai défi, c'est que vous avez un médiateur américain imprévisible qui est à la fois sur beaucoup de chantiers - le Venezuela, l'Iran, le Groenland - et qui, à un moment donné, sera lui-même enlisé dans une politique intérieure avec les élections de midterm qui viennent. Donc, 2026 peut être une année où la tension américaine sur la crise congolaise peut être réduite. Et donc, à ce moment-là, Kinshasa perdra ce levier américain d'intérêt stratégique sur le conflit.

« Le Baromètre des accords de paix en Afrique a rendu publique lundi, constate le site congolais Actualité.cd, l'évaluation de la mise en œuvre de l'accord de paix de Washington, signé en juin dernier entre la RDC et le Rwanda. Une évaluation qui couvre la période du mois de décembre 2025. » Ses conclusions sont sans appel : « la dynamique observée les mois précédents s'est essoufflée en fin d'année. » En clair, précise Actualité.cd, « malgré l'implication du président américain Donald Trump et l'accélération apparente du processus de Washington — matérialisée par l'entérinement des accords par les présidents Tshisekedi et Kagame — la situation sécuritaire sur le terrain peine à s'améliorer. Kinshasa et Kigali continuent de s'accuser mutuellement de violations des engagements pris, alimentant une méfiance persistante. » Qui plus est, « les discussions de Doha, menées sous l'égide de l'émir du Qatar, connaissent également un net ralentissement. (…) Plusieurs mesures déjà actées, dont le mécanisme de cessez-le-feu, la déclaration de principes et l'accord-cadre, n'ont toujours pas été mises en œuvre. » Pour Kinshasa, pas question de partager le pouvoir « Conflit en RDC : le spectre de l'enlisement », constate également Afrikarabia, site spécialisé sur la RDC. « Les multiples accords signés entre la RDC et les rebelles de l'AFC-M23 n'ont toujours pas réussi à faire taire les armes. Les processus de Washington et de Doha semblent moribonds, la guerre s'installe dans la durée et le président congolais Félix Tshisekedi n'a plus beaucoup de cartes dans son jeu pour reprendre la main. » Certes, précise Afrikarabia, « sur la table, il y a la libération de prisonniers, l'intégration de certains combattants rebelles dans l'armée régulière, mais il y a surtout un partage du pouvoir entre Kinshasa et la rébellion sur l'administration politique, économique et sécuritaire du Nord-Kivu et du Sud-Kivu. Ce que l'AFC-M23 présente comme un "projet fédéraliste". Et cela, Kinshasa n'y est pas du tout disposé, pointe le site, considérant qu'il s'agit, ni plus ni moins, que d'une annexion de l'Est congolais par le Rwanda et ses supplétifs. Félix Tshisekedi s'accroche à la résolution 2773 des Nations unies qui exige un retrait des troupes rwandaises du sol congolais, l'arrêt du soutien de Kigali à l'AFC-M23, et le retrait immédiat des rebelles des zones occupées. Kinshasa estime donc qu'il n'y a rien à négocier avec l'AFC-M23. Le hic, relève encore Afrikarabia, c'est que la réalité du terrain et l'état des rapports de force ne plaident pas en sa faveur. La rébellion n'a jamais contrôlé un territoire aussi vaste. Elle installe ses propres hommes à la tête des administrations et recrute de nouveaux combattants, issus de ses conquêtes territoriales. » « Extrême méfiance » En fait, rebondit Jeune Afrique, « chaque partie s'accuse de mauvaise foi et les débats tournent court. Les mesures de confiance, comme l'échange de prisonniers avec l'aide du Comité international de la Croix-Rouge, n'ont pas encore abouti malgré la signature d'un mécanisme par les deux parties. "Le climat actuel est très tendu, polarisé entre la RDC et l'AFC-M23. Je vois mal comment ils pourront progresser. Il y a une atmosphère d'extrême méfiance des deux côtés", constate une source diplomatique. Malgré l'adhésion aux processus de paix en cours, les deux parties semblent avoir un point commun : elles croient toujours au rapport de force. » Jeune Afrique précise enfin le calendrier diplomatique : « En attendant un nouveau round de négociations au Qatar, les pays de la région ont rendez-vous à Livingstone, en Zambie, aujourd'hui et demain, dans le cadre d'une réunion sécuritaire de la Conférence internationale sur la région des Grands Lacs animée par les ministres de la Défense des 12 pays de l'organisation. Ce sera ensuite au tour de Lomé, au Togo, d'accueillir le 17 janvier une réunion "sur la cohérence et la consolidation du processus de paix en RDC et dans la région des Grands Lacs visant à renforcer la confiance et à faire progresser le processus de paix". » Un intitulé ronflant pour un résultat attendu plutôt mince.

Without a clear understanding of ground conditions, unquantified risk can be transferred from project owner to lead contractors when a contract is signed. In the first episode of this three part series, we explored how geophysical screening, using non-intrusive methods, can be used to reduce uncertainty in site selection and provide clarity on construction costs and delivery schedules. In this episode, we move past the final investment decision, to the development of project designs. Karim Khalaf, Regional Business Line Manager, Middle East, at Fugro, explains how one client commissioned a new method of site screening, ambient noise tomography, to check subsurface conditions before starting work on building a stormwater pumping station in Doha, Qatar. Not every project owner performs this sort of early geophysical investigation. However, as Rod Eddies explains, the Geo-Risk Management Framework can still be applied by lead contractors as they complete designs and schedule construction work. We learn how early screening can provide a basis for more detailed geotechnical techniques, using boreholes and cone penetration testing. This approach gives clients the answers they need, when they need them, while minimising the need to deploy heavy equipment.

Depuis la prise d'Uvira la semaine dernière par les rebelles du M23, soutenus par le Rwanda, Kigali est sous le feu des critiques. « "Les États-Unis sont profondément préoccupés et incroyablement déçus par la nouvelle flambée de la violence dans l'est de la RDC", s'est indigné Mike Waltz, l'ambassadeur américain auprès des Nations unies, rapporte Afrikarabia, site spécialisé sur la RDC. (…) En ligne de mire, le soutien actif du Rwanda aux rebelles, en matériel et en logistique. 5 000 à 7 000 soldats rwandais combattraient au Congo au début de décembre, selon Mike Waltz. Marco Rubio, le patron de la diplomatie américaine, a été encore plus clair sur les intentions de Washington, indiquant que "les États-Unis prendraient des mesures pour garantir le respect des engagements pris envers le président" Donald Trump. » Qui plus est, rapporte le site congolais Actualité CD, « le vice-secrétaire d'État américain Christopher Landau a qualifié l'offensive récente sur Uvira de "grave erreur", avertissant que "cela ne pourrait pas continuer" si le Rwanda "persistait à jouer les mêmes vieux jeux avec le M23" ». Les États-Unis furieux… La presse congolaise pointe du doigt le président rwandais : « Kagame a tourné Donald Trump en dérision : ses jours sont comptés », s'exclame La Tempête des Tropiques. Le quotidien kinois cite un officiel américain proche de la Maison Blanche qui accuse le chef de l'État rwandais d'avoir trahi la confiance des États-Unis et du président Trump : « dans un langage particulièrement offensif, il qualifie Paul Kagame de "criminel de guerre" incapable de tenir parole, et affirme que "le temps du dialogue est terminé" et qu'il est "temps pour Kagame de partir" ». Et « au-delà de l'attaque directe contre le président rwandais, note encore La Tempête des Tropiques, ce proche de la Maison Blanche lance un appel explicite aux militants pro-démocratie au Rwanda, les invitant à entrer en contact avec ses réseaux aux États-Unis, suggérant une volonté de soutenir ou structurer une opposition politique en exil. Cette sortie marque un changement notable de ton dans certains cercles américains, relève encore le quotidien kinois, alors que Kigali bénéficiait jusqu'ici d'une image relativement favorable auprès des partenaires occidentaux ». Le M23 va-t-il quitter Uvira ? Conséquence sans doute de toutes ces pressions : l'AFC-M23 a annoncé hier lundi qu'elle allait se retirer d'Uvira… La rébellion l'indique dans un communiqué repris notamment par le site congolais Actualité CD : « "malgré les provocations et abus persistants de la part des FARDC et de leurs alliés, l'AFC-M23 a décidé d'initier une mesure unilatérale de confiance afin de donner au processus de paix de Doha toutes les chances de réussir", affirme le mouvement, ajoutant qu'il "retirera unilatéralement ses forces de la ville d'Uvira, comme demandé par la médiation des États-Unis". La rébellion précise toutefois que ce "retrait est conditionné à des garanties de sécurité", appelant "les garants du processus de paix à assurer la gestion de la ville, notamment sa démilitarisation, la protection des civils et des infrastructures, ainsi que le contrôle du cessez-le-feu par le déploiement d'une force neutre" ». Alors le M23 va-t-il vraiment se retirer d'Uvira ? Le Rwanda va-t-il céder aux injonctions internationales, notamment américaines ? Difficile de répondre… À Kigali, le quotidien The New Times, proche du pouvoir, contre-attaque en affirmant que « la coalition de la RDC poursuit une campagne d'extermination ciblée contre les civils banyamulenge », ces Tutsis congolais qui vivent dans le Kivu. Le pouvoir rwandais avance régulièrement ce prétexte de défendre cette minorité ethnique d'origine rwandaise pour justifier sa présence militaire dans l'est de la RDC. Plus de 500 000 personnes déplacées En attendant, la crise humanitaire s'amplifie. « Selon l'Unicef, rapporte Afrik.com, plus de 500 000 personnes, dont plus de 100 000 enfants, ont été déplacées depuis le 1er décembre au Sud-Kivu. Et plus de 40 000 Congolais ont franchi la frontière vers le Burundi en seulement quatre jours. Au total, 5,3 millions de personnes sont déplacées à l'intérieur du pays et plus de 24 millions souffrent d'insécurité alimentaire ». Enfin, rapporte encore Afrik.com, « la ministre congolaise des Affaires étrangères, Thérèse Wagner, appelle le Conseil de sécurité de l'ONU à imposer des sanctions ciblées contre les responsables militaires et politiques de l'agression, à instaurer un embargo total sur les minerais exportés comme rwandais, et à révoquer le statut de contributeur de troupes du Rwanda aux opérations de paix. Et elle prévient : "soit l'ordre international accepte d'être ouvertement bafoué, soit ce Conseil assume ses responsabilités" ».

For the past five years Lebanon has faced crisis upon crisis including; economic collapse, the Beirut Port blast, and Israel's war. But now the country is entering a new political chapter under a new government, marked by shifts in priorities and a renewed attention to social policy. In this podcast IDS Research Fellow, Philip Proudfoot, interviews Haneen Sayed, Lebanon's Minister of social affairs who talks about her country's main issues. Philip asks the Minister these key questions: After five years of crisis upon crisis, what do you see as Lebanon's need right now? How is the new government approaching social protection differently from the government that came before? Financing is always a challenge, especially with the increasing withdrawal of international support, is this an obstacle or an opportunity? At the recent second world summit on social development in Doha, the high-level panel made a big push for social protection as a stabilisation mechanism. What might this mean for Lebanon, the social contract, and the building blocks needed to enhance and build it. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
In this must-listen episode, Josh Hammer pulls no punches as he exposes the bad actors corrupting the conservative movement — including Nick Fuentes, Tucker Carlson, and the grifters cheering them on. Josh breaks down Tucker’s latest bizarre comments about buying a house in Doha, Qatar, and torches the delusion behind pretending Qatar is some kind of model society. Josh also details Qatar’s deep ties to the Muslim Brotherhood and highlights what Florida is doing to push back against creeping sharia influence in the U.S. Then he turns to the Left, calling out Rep. Jasmine Crockett for her latest unhinged proposal on reparations — another desperate attempt to score headlines at the expense of common sense.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

PREVIEW — Edmund Fitton-Brown — Turkey, Qatar, and the Muslim Brotherhood. Fitton-Brown identifies Turkeyand Qatar as principal state sponsors of the Muslim Brotherhood, providing financial resources, media platforms, and territorial sanctuary for exiled Islamist leadership and operatives throughout the region. Fitton-Brown acknowledges that Hamas's armed conflict with Israel generates considerable risk to the Muslim Brotherhood's strategic "deniability" and institutional separation from militant operations and terrorist designations. Fitton-Brown argues paradoxically that Hamas ultimately strengthens the broader Muslim Brotherhood movement by generating globally inspiring headlines through its military resistance against Israeli military operations, thereby amplifying the organization's ideological appeal and recruitment potential despite operational complications for the parent organization. 1904 DOHA
Today's Headlines: The Trump administration released its 33-page National Security Strategy — immediately praised by the Kremlin — outlining U.S. “dominance” in the Americas, embracing Middle East leaders “as they are,” warning Europe of “civilizational erasure,” and boosting far-right movements there. It also shifts U.S. policy in Africa toward extracting “latent economic potential,” and says avoiding conflict with China is suddenly a “priority.” At the Reagan Defense Forum, Pete Hegseth declared the end of America's “utopian idealism,” saying the military should ditch democracy-building and climate concerns for “practical interests.” Sure, Pete. Israel, Qatar, and the U.S. met to build relations after Israel's strike in Doha it was, of course, hosted by Steve Witkoff — who, along with Jared Kushner, also had a long call with Zelensky about territory and “security guarantees.” Meanwhile, the Supreme Court will hear Trump's effort to end birthright citizenship, despite the Constitution spelling it out pretty clearly and Trump threw a fit after pardoned Democrat Henry Cuellar didn't switch parties, accusing him of “disloyalty” and claiming “God was very happy” with his pardon. In other news, the Jan. 5 pipe-bomb suspect is cooperating with the FBI and says he planted them to support Trump, RFK Jr.'s HHS and anti-vax panel voted to end universal Hep B shots at birth, disregarding the risks to infants, and the Netflix–Warner Bros. merger is in trouble, with the Trump administration favoring a sale to Trump-ally-owned Paramount instead.

One year ago today, Syria's fallen President Bashar al-Assad fled the country. The man who replaced him, opposition leader Ahmed al-Sharaa, is certainly an international darling, welcomed all the way to the White House. According to a new poll by Arab Barometer, he has the approval of 81% of the Syrian people. But these numbers aren't universal: among minorities, including Alawites and Druze, support for him falls below 50%. Moreover, a United Nations commission warns that Syria's transition remains fragile amid continuing insecurity and sporadic violence. Christiane put crucial questions to him at this weekend's Doha forum. Also on today's show: correspondent Clare Sebastian; former CDC official Demetre Daskalakis Learn more about your ad choices.

Phase Two or Fantasy? As President Trump ramps up pressure on Israel to advance his peace plan, Gaza spirals deeper into chaos. Hamas still refuses to disarm. The last hostage's body remains in enemy hands. And yet Doha's elites, Hollywood celebs, even supposed allies, are all screaming: Move forward. In this episode of The Quad, the panel rips into Qatar's propaganda machine, Tucker Carlson's doublespeak, Hollywood's obsession with freeing terrorists and the West's terrifying slide into moral collapse.
This is a special edition of Chatham House's Independent Thinking international affairs podcast, recorded at the Doha Forum 2025. Many of the official and backroom discussions at Qatar's annual gathering of more than 5,000 world leaders, policymakers, dialogue, corporate and humanitarian organizations from 162 countries were dominated by discussions of President Donald Trump's National Security Strategy, which was released on the eve of the forum. At one of the first events in the Doha Forum, Chatham House Director Bronwen Maddox questioned US Ambassador to NATO Mathew Whitaker about it. The podcast examines the implications for Europe, Asia, the Middle East and US foreign policy generally of the NSS document, which reinforces the Trump administration's 'America First' strategy, and contains stark language about Europe, talking about its 'economic decline' and 'the real and more stark prospect of civilizational erasure'. It also says: 'The days in which the Middle East dominated American foreign policy in both long-term planning and day-to-day execution are thankfully over.' Joining host Bronwen Maddox in Doha were: Leslie Vinjamuri, President and Chief Executive Officer, Chicago Council on Global Affairs, and Yu Jie, a Senior Research Fellow on China in Chatham House's Asia-Pacific Programme, and Renad Mansour, a Senior Research Fellow with the Middle East and North Africa Programme. Produced by Stephen Farrell and John Pollock.
Welcome to The Times of Israel's Daily Briefing, your 20-minute audio update on what's happening in Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish world. US bureau chief Jacob Magid joins host Amanda Borschel-Dan for today's episode. Magid joins us from the Doha Forum, an annual gathering bringing together government officials, policymakers, civil society representatives and business leaders from around the world to discuss major global challenges. Qatar’s Prime Minister said yesterday that Doha does not consider the current situation in Gaza to be a ceasefire, arguing that this would require an Israeli withdrawal from the entirety of the enclave. At the same time, Egyptian Foreign Minister Badr Abdelatty called for deploying the International Stabilization Force (ISF) in Gaza “as soon as possible,” claiming that Israel is using the absence of international monitors on the ground in Gaza to violate the ceasefire on a daily basis. We hear additional statements critical of Israel and discuss their significance, even as the Trump administration appears to announce that Phase 2 of the Gaza ceasefire will commence in the coming weeks. Also yesterday at the Doha Forum, Syrian President Ahmed al-Sharaa accused Israel of “exporting crises” to other countries around the region to distract from its “horrifying massacres” in Gaza. We learn how those at the forum consider that the Syrian president, once denounced as a terrorist, is a legitimate actor in the region, whereas Israel is not. Piling on to the criticism against Israel at the forum, also yesterday, a senior Saudi diplomat said that while there is much focus in the international community on the need for the Palestinian Authority to engage in a comprehensive reform process, a reform of the Israeli government is what is most needed for peace in the region. Magid puts this new Saudi statement in the context of what we also learned yesterday: that the US and Saudi Arabia had reached understandings on the eve of Hamas’s October 7 attack regarding the concessions Israel would have to make vis-à-vis the Palestinians for Riyadh to normalize relations with Jerusalem. Magid previews what he has uncovered, which will be discussed more in depth in Friday's Lazar Focus podcast. Check out The Times of Israel's ongoing liveblog for more updates.

I am back from my travels in Doha, and am coming to you from the SXM studios in Miami. You didn't think I was missing Art Basel, did you? We talk to someone who is dealing with a bad kisser, a woman struggling with a sister in law from hell, and a divorced dad who calls in to shoot his shot with me. This call comes at the end and I implore everyone to hear me break harder on the air, than I have ever before. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Arman Tsarukyan sent a message to lightweight champion Ilia Topuria in the main event of UFC Qatar, and then sent another in his post-fight interview. After dispatching Dan Hooker in dominant fashion, is Tsarukyan the guy that faces Topuria in his first title defense? Following Saturday's UFC Fight Night event in Doha, MMA Fighting's Mike Heck and Jed Meshew react to the eventful card, Tsarukyan's incredible performance against Hooker, and if he should be next for Topuria over Paddy Pimblett. Additionally, they discuss Ian Machado Garry's decision win over Belal Muhammad in the co-main event and what the victory does in the Islam Makhachev conversation, the standout, bonus-winning performances from Waldo Cortes-Acosta and Kyoji Horiguchi, and much more.

SHOW 11-10-2025 CBS EYE ON THE WORLD WITH JOHN BATCHELOR 1910 gaza THE SHOW BEGINS IN THE DOUBTS ABOUT THE GAZA "BOARD OF PEACE." FIRST HOUR 9-915 Analysis of the Trump Administration's "Take It or Leave It" Gaza Peace Plan. Bill Roggio and Ambassador Husain Haqqani discuss how the Trump administration proposed a "take it or leave it" Gaza victory plan, including a Board of Peace, international financing, and security. Ambassador Haqqani found the plan vague and a "fantasy," failing to address ground realities like disarming Hamas or the IDF's withdrawal. Bill Roggio insisted that peace is impossible under Hamas, whose charter demands Israel's removal. The vagueness makes it unclear how regional capitals like Cairo and Doha will respond, potentially allowing turmoil to continue. 915-930 Analysis of the Trump Administration's "Take It or Leave It" Gaza Peace Plan.

The vagueness makes it unclear how regional capitals like Cairo and Doha will respond, potentially allowing turmoil to continue. 930-945 Hezbollah's Rearmament and Israeli Active Defense Strategy in Lebanon and Gaza Peace Plan. David Daoud discusses how since the Gaza ceasefire, Hezbollah has been rearming, which the deal did not preclude. Israel shifted to "active defense," striking Hezbollah personnel and assets north and south of the Litani River, including in the Beqaa Valley, making no place in Lebanon off-limits. Hezbollah funds its operations through illicit transnational and internal economic channels. The US plan for Gaza aims for international engagement to preclude Hamas's resurgence, potentially relying on an international force and Israeli assistance. 945-1000 Hezbollah's Rearmament and Israeli Active Defense Strategy in Lebanon and Gaza Peace Plan.

The US plan for Gaza aims for international engagement to preclude Hamas's resurgence, potentially relying on an international force and Israeli assistance. SECOND HOUR 10-1015 Geopolitical Shifts: Gaza Peace, Syria's al-Sharaa, and REising Anti-Semitism. Malcolm Hoenlein discusses how the comprehensive US plan for Gaza proposes a transitional Board of Peace and mandates the disarming of Hamas. Hoenlein expressed skepticism regarding al-Sharaa's White House visit, noting his background as an ex-jihadist who ordered massacres of minorities in Syria. While neutralizing Syria would be positive, al-Sharaa has yet to prove himself. There is also rising concern over anti-Semitism in Europe, evidenced by attacks on Israeli sports teams and polls showing sympathy for Hamas. 1015-1030 Geopolitical Shifts: Gaza Peace, Syria's al-Sharaa, and Rising Anti-Semitism.

There is also rising concern over anti-Semitism in Europe, evidenced by attacks on Israeli sports teams and polls showing sympathy for Hamas. 1030-1045 Assessing European Reliability in Countering the China Threat to Taiwan. Steve Yates discusses how Europe's reliability in defending Taiwan is questioned, despite the Taiwan Vice President addressing the EU Parliament. Europe has historically lacked a significant defense footprint in East Asia. China exploits the narrative of European colonial history and decline to separate Europe from Taiwan. Although some European leaders prioritize economic opportunity with Beijing, reliable economic partners like Japan, South Korea, and Taiwan offer strong strategic and economic ballast against the risks posed by the People's Republic of China. 1045-1100 China's Censorship Campaign Against Pessimism and Social Discontent. Charles Burton discusses how China initiated a two-month campaign against "pessimism," targeting citizens who criticize the state due to economic failure, unfair housing, or joblessness. The regime ignores serious societal issues, relying on propaganda while profound discontent exists privately. Censorship is counterproductive, leading to false reporting and increasing internal cynicism toward the leadership. With official news censored, people rely on fast-running rumors, which the government attempts to deal with by arresting activists and rumor-mongers. THIRD HOUR 1100-1115 Russia's Winter Strikes on Ukrainian Energy and the Battle for Pokrovsk. John Hardie discusses how Russia is escalating its winter campaign against Ukrainian energy infrastructure using a higher percentage of hard-to-intercept ballistic missiles and drones. This aims to break Ukrainian will and create leverage for negotiations. On the front, the battle for Pokrovsk is difficult, with Russians infiltrating the city and disrupting logistics using fiber-optic-controlled FPV drones. Although Ukraine has succeeded in attriting Russian forces there, preserving manpower by avoiding a late withdrawal remains a critical concern. 1115-1130 Russia's Winter Strikes on Ukrainian Energy and the Battle for Pokrovsk.

Although Ukraine has succeeded in attriting Russian forces there, preserving manpower by avoiding a late withdrawal remains a critical concern. 1130-1145 Assessing al-Sharaa's Visit and the Risks of the Gaza Board of Peace Proposal. Edmund Fitton-Brown discusses how the proposed Gaza "Board of Peace" is part of the Trump plan to create active international engagement and prevent a return to Hamas control. The international stabilization force must have "real teeth" to fight subversive elements, unlike the failed UNIFIL mission. Regarding al-Sharaa, the self-named Syrian president and ex-al-Qaeda veteran, the White House visit gives him a chance to stabilize Syria. However, he must be pressured to investigate massacres of Druze and Alawites and hold people accountable (trust but verify). 1145-1200 Assessing al-Sharaa's Visit and the Risks of the Gaza Board of Peace Proposal.

FOURTH HOUR 12-1215 Discussion of al-Sharaa's White House Visit, Syrian Sanctions, and Domestic Stability Issues. Ahmad Sharawi discusses how al-Sharaa (formerly al-Jolani), the self-named president of Syria and former al-Qaeda leader, visited the White House seeking the repeal of Caesar sanctions. The administration hopes he can stabilize Syria, ignoring his history of massacres against minorities like the Alawites and Druze. Critics argue he must address internal stability and remove foreign fighters first, as he is being rewarded for actions already serving his self-interest, such as fighting ISIS and limiting Iran's influence. 1215-1230 Discussion of al-Sharaa's White House Visit, Syrian Sanctions, and Domestic Stability Issues.

Critics argue he must address internal stability and remove foreign fighters first, as he is being rewarded for actions already serving his self-interest, such as fighting ISIS and limiting Iran's influence. 1230-1245 Climate Change, Indigenous Demands, and Governance Challenges in the Amazon. Ernesto Araújo discusses how indigenous leaders at COP 30 highlighted demands tied to environmental issues in the Amazon, which spans many countries. Poverty drives illegal activities, like logging and mining, even on indigenous lands (14% of Brazilian territory), which are often exploited through bribery and organized crime. While Lula speaks of protecting the Amazon, deforestation and indigenous health figures remain poor. The complex solution requires enforcing existing laws and focusing on establishing law and order to fight pervasive corruption. 1245-100 AM Iran's Nuclear Stalemate, Economic Crisis, and Missile Program Aspirations. Jonathan Schanzer discusses how Iran views the lack of peace or war with Israel as a dangerous stalemate, while aspiring to fire 2,000 ballistic missiles at once in a future conflict. Covert Israeli operations target Iranian missile facilities. Despite sanctions, Iran's oil exports have sharply increased (2.3 million barrels/day) due to lax enforcement, funneling money to regime kleptocrats. Domestic crises like water and power shortages are increasing internal desperation, as the regime prioritizes regional ambitions over the welfare of the average Iranian. |
