Allerede før de første medier ruller deres 1MDB-afsløringer ud, er Jho Low over alle bjerge. I forbindelse med sin flugt, anskaffer han sig en bred vifte af falske pas. Befinder han sig i tilsvarende luksus i dag, som den han snød sig til – bare uden at kunne være festens centrum? Bliver han nogensinde fanget og holdt ansvarlig? Og hvad siger det om både tiden og verdensdelen, at en korruption i denne skala kunne lade sig gøre? Lasse Karner, ekspert i svindelforebyggelse og tidligere Asien-korrespondent, er med igen. Vært: Signe Frederikke Pedersen.

Political judgement is the skill that is seen as compulsory if you are to reach high office. In the past week, UK Prime Minister Kier Starmer has had his judgment questioned from all sides of the political spectrum as revelation after revelation flows from the Epstein papers. Central to the story is the disgraced financier's relationship with Lord Mandelson, the co-architect of the New Labour project in the 1990s. Instead of policy, Starmer is dealing with photos of the peer in his pants, and the unsightly mess could even cost the PM his job. Joining Emmet Oliver to discuss is Enda Brady, presenter with TRT World.

It's been a dramatic week for Irish artists, activism and the UK's terrorism law. Sally Rooney — one of Ireland's most prominent literary voices — has made headlines for her vocal support of Palestine Action, a group recently designated a terrorist organisation by the UK government. The Normal People author has pledged to donate earnings from her books and BBC adaptations to the group — a move that could place her at risk of arrest under UK anti-terror legislation. Her stance came in the same week that Kneecap rapper Liam Óg Ó hAnnaidh appeared in a London court on terrorism charges, accused of displaying a flag in support of Hezbollah. Meanwhile, back home, another protest is gathering momentum — this time in the world of sport. A letter signed by around 800 GAA players — including stars from football, hurling and camogie — was delivered to Croke Park, calling on the association to cut ties with Allianz, one of its biggest sponsors. The call comes after a UN special rapporteur's report named Allianz, through its asset-management arm Pimco, as a significant buyer of Israeli government bonds. On today's Indo Daily, Tessa Fleming is joined by TRT World presenter Enda Brady and Conor McKeon, sports journalist with the Irish Independent, to look at the high-profile costs and consequences of speaking out on Israel and Palestine.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In an interview on “Palestine Talks” by TRT World, Max Blumenthal dissects Israel's genocidal campaign in Gaza, exposing Western complicity and the profit-driven motives behind arms and tech industries. He reveals how Europe's belated condemnations stem from fear of refugee crises, not moral reckoning, and details Israel's use of AI and military tactics to perpetuate atrocities. Blumenthal also examines the growing pariah status of Israel globally and the societal fractures within its borders.Watch on Telegram TheGrayzone.com
This is TRT World's Daily News Brief for Wednesday, May 14th. Palestine says Israel continues to 'weaponise aid' to punish Gaza "Palestine's representative to the UN, Riyad Mansour, says Israel is using starvation as a deliberate weapon in Gaza. He accused Israeli authorities of systematically blocking aid and manipulating its delivery—not just occasionally, but in a way he described as deliberate and ongoing for over two months. Mansour told the UN Security Council that this isn't just mismanagement, it's what he calls ""engineered starvation""." Trump's Arab ally worked discreetly to secure release of US-Israeli captive:sources "Sources have told TRT World that the release of American-Israeli hostage Edan Alexander was the result of quiet, behind-the-scenes diplomacy, and a key figure in this was American-Arab activist Bishara Bahbah. According to the sources, a senior Hamas official reached out to Bahbah last month in search of a communication channel to Steve Witkoff, who served as Donald Trump's Middle East envoy. That backchannel eventually led to Alexander's release, carried out by Hamas's armed wing, the Qassam Brigades." Celebrations in Damascus as Syria calls Trump's decision to lift sanctions 'a turning point' "Over in Syria, officials are celebrating what they see as a major shift in US policy. President Donald Trump's move to lift sanctions on Syria is being hailed as a ""turning point"" by the country's leadership. Foreign Minister Asaad al Shaibani welcomed the announcement, saying it marks a significant moment for the Syrian people. He called it a step toward greater stability, economic independence, and the chance to rebuild after years of war." Trump secures $600B Saudi investment pledge on Gulf tour "Donald Trump has locked in a massive $600 billion investment pledge from Saudi Arabia during his Gulf tour. As Trump stepped off Air Force One, he was greeted by Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman. Later, the two signed a major agreement in Riyadh that includes cooperation in energy, defence, mining and more. The deal also features what Washington is calling the biggest-ever defence sales agreement between the two countries—nearly $142 billion worth of commitments in that area alone." Spain chooses Turkish HURJET as advanced trainer for its air force "In a notable boost for Turkish aerospace, Spain has picked Türkiye's HURJET as the next advanced jet trainer for its air force. The news comes just as the 2025 International Defence and Security Exhibition (FEINDEF) wraps up. According to Spanish aviation media outlet Avion Revue Internacional, an official signing is expected this Wednesday between the Spain's defence industry and HURJET's manufacturer Turkish Aerospace. The agreement sets the stage for future collaboration and the formal inclusion of HURJET into the Spanish Air and Space Force's training fleet."
Förra veckan publicerade Göteborgsposten en lång, exklusiv intervju med artisten Måns Zelmerlöw från hans hem i skånska Staffanstorp. Artisten befinner sig mitt i en sårig skillsmässa som utspelar sig inför öppna ridåer. Lyssna på alla avsnitt i Sveriges Radio Play. I intervjun erkänner Måns Zelmerlöw att han tagit kokain. En nyhet som fick stort nationellt genomslag. Men precis som att Göteborg är Sveriges andra stad så var Göteborgsposten andrahandsvalet när Måns pressfolk erbjöd den här exklusiva intervjun till svenska medier. Förstahandsvalet var Dagens Nyheter. Och det fanns en anledning till att DN valde att tacka nej till den här chansen.Reporter: Freddi RamelI förra veckan skedde ett brutalt trippelmord i Uppsala. Tre killar, mellan 15- och 20 år gamla, sköts till döds inne på en frisersalong i stadsdelen Vaksala. Mitt på blanka dagen. Samma kväll greps en 16-årig kille i sitt hem och på en pressträff sa polisen att han anhållits på sannolika skäl misstänkt för att vara skytten som dödade de tre killarna. Men blott tre dagar senare släpptes han och alla misstankar avskrevs plötsligt. Kvar finns nu en mängd publiceringar om honom, om än anonymiserade så tämligen utbroderade. Reporter: Martina PierrouVilka frilansjobb kan man egentligen kombinera med återkommande uppdrag för Sveriges Radio? I veckan kunde sajten Bulletin berätta att en av Ekots medarbetare, programledaren och reportern Per Bergfors Nyberg har en bakgrund som nyhetsankare på den turkiska tv-kanalen TRT World. Det här ledde i veckan både till en diskussion och högljudd till kritik mot Sveriges radio. Att just nu när den svenska journalisten Joakim Medin sitter fängslad i just Turkiet— ha en anställd med bakgrund på en kanal som beskrivs som närmast ett propagandaorgan för Turkiets president Erdogan, jaa det har stuckit i ögonen.

This is TRT World's Daily News Brief for Thursday, May 8th. Pakistan shoots down Indian jets as tensions soar "To calm tensions between the two arch-rivals India and Pakistan, world leaders have urged them to stop fighting. US President Donald Trump called for both nations to cease hostilities, while Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan offered diplomatic support to de-escalate the situation. Pakistan has said Indian strikes resulted in the deaths of 31 Pakistani civilians and injuries to 57 others, vowing to respond. It also said its air force brought down five Indian fighter jets and one drone in an act of ""self-defence” — including three Rafale aircraft." Israel kills over 50 Palestinians in continued Gaza bombardment "At least 54 Palestinians were killed and dozens more wounded in fresh Israeli air strikes across Gaza, according to medics. In Al-Tuffah, 16 Palestinians were killed in Israeli shelling of a school-turned-shelter, while 22 others were killed in an attack on a market in Gaza City. Further casualties occurred in Khan Younis, Bani Suhaila and various refugee camps. Gaza's government media office confirmed that Israel has targeted over 234 shelters. Total blockade on Gaza has caused severe famine among Palestinians, with the world urging Tel Aviv to allow aid to flow. Israel has killed over 52,600 people in the Palestinian enclave, mostly women and children, since October 7, 2023. " US court blocks Trump admin's transfer bid for detained Turkish student "A federal appeals court has ordered the transfer of Turkish doctoral student Rumeysa Ozturk from an immigration jail in Louisiana to a court in Vermont, where a bail hearing is scheduled for May 9. Ozturk was arrested in March after co-authoring a critical op-ed on Israel's genocidal war on Gaza. The ruling rejects the Trump administration's attempt to block her transfer. Ozturk's legal team argues her detention violates free speech rights." Russia declares ceasefire with Ukraine during Victory Day "Russia declares a unilateral ceasefire lasting until midnight on 11 May, marking the 80th anniversary of Victory Day, a national holiday, commemorating the 1945 defeat of Nazi Germany in World War II. President Vladimir Putin's move to pause hostilities during the national holiday met resistance from Kiev. President Volodymyr Zelenskyy rejected the initiative and warned foreign dignitaries against attending Moscow's celebrations, citing safety concerns. The Kremlin hit back, labelling the warning a “threat,” while spokesman Dmitry Peskov vowed a “swift and effective” military response to any breach by Ukraine." Black smoke rises again as Vatican delays papal decision "Tension runs high in Vatican City as black smoke once again billowed from the Sistine Chapel, signalling no decision yet on the next pope. The 133 cardinals, the most diverse group ever assembled, began their second day of secret voting Thursday. With no clear favourite, speculation swirls—from Italy's Pizzaballa to Sri Lanka's Ranjith. As Catholic pilgrims crowd St Peter's Square, hope lingers as the Christian world awaits the white smoke that will herald the 267th pontiff."
