Athens and Nicosia are putting the spotlight on reports that Turkey and Syria could potentially reach a deal to delimit their maritime zones in a way that would promote Turkey's “Blue Homeland” doctrine, and disregard the rights of neighboring states like Cyprus. Such a move would raise the specter of legal and political tensions reminiscent of the illegal Turkey-Libya memorandum. Vassilis Nedos, Kathimerini's diplomatic and defense editor, joins Thanos Davelis to break down what such a deal between Ankara and Damascus could mean for the region, and what steps Athens and Nicosia are taking to pre-empt it.You can read the articles we discuss on our podcast here:Athens and Nicosia on alert over possible Turkey-Syria EEZ delimitation dealAthens, Nicosia aim to pre-empt Turkey in SyriaCyprus can help rid Syria of chemical weapons and search for its missing, Cypriot top diplomat says

In this episode of The President's Daily Brief:     It appears the rifts within Jerusalem's halls of power are growing larger, as reports emerge that Israel's top military brass want to see a ceasefire in Gaza, even if such a truce ultimately leaves Hamas in power. China may be expanding their support of Russia to the military, as reports emerge that the CCP is building Iranian-style attack drones for their friends in Moscow. Several days of violent clashes between Syrian refugees and Turkish troops has prompted Turkey to temporarily shut down their border crossings with Syria.

When you think of Bethenny Frankel, the first thing that probably comes to mind is Bravo's The Real Housewives of New York City. But what may surprise you are the hundreds of millions of dollars her BStrong organization has delivered to people in crisis, such as for Ukrainian refugees and victims of the Turkey-Syria earthquakes. “Hollywood is the land of bullsh**,” Frankel told Newsweek's H. Alan Scott about celebrities' responses to international tragedies. “There are cool crises and not cool crises...bam, next week, it's something else.” But BStrong is “gonna talk about things when they're not cool anymore.” Frankel also spoke about her call to unionize reality TV talent (“Bravo is scare”) and what it's like to be a new TikTok beauty influencer.

It's Hump Day! Sam and Emma host Amy Wilentz, Professor of Literary Journalism at the University of California Irvine and contributing editor at The Nation, to discuss her recent piece in The Nation entitled "Haiti, April 2023: Soon There Will Be No One Left to Kidnap." Then, they're joined by Djene Bajalan, professor of history at Missouri State University, to discuss the upcoming Turkish elections. First, Sam and Emma run through updates on Kevin McCarthy's impending austerity bill, the nomination of Julie Su, John Roberts' ethics crisis, Fox's opposition file on Tucker,  and Bernie's Biden endorsement, before diving into a former Tucker producer's testimony on what's been coming out of Fox News. Professor Amy Wilentz then steps back to walk through the impact of the 2010 Haiti Earthquake in cementing the US-backed rule of Ariel Henry over a country with devastated infrastructure that was falling more and more into the hands of capitalists and gangs, before analyzing the complete neutering of Haiti's governmental forces, be they military or police, the connections between the cops and the criminals, and how these elements bolstered the rise of gangs and human trafficking in the country, leading to its current moment of intense upheaval. Wrapping up, Amy, Sam, and Emma explore what solutions are even viable, and why an election might only serve to reinforce the current moment of chaos. Djene Bajalan then dives into the nationalist discourse ahead of Turkey's election, before walking through the role this election plays in Erdogan's path to supreme power. After tackling the impact of the Turkey-Syria earthquake earlier this year and Erdogan's fascistic response, Sam, Emma, and Djene wrap up the interview by tracing the political movements that have existed alongside Erdogan's reign, and what to expect from their post-election check-in. And in the Fun Half: Sam and Emma cover the attacks on Kevin McCarthy's austerity from the right, the silencing of Zooey Zephyr on the Montana house floor, Candace responding to Crowder with infinitely more grit than he provided, and the importance of building new housing.  Cade from Washington dives into the importance of engaging local politics on an individual level, and Kyle from LA starts a long conversation on Russia's invasion of Ukraine, and the predication of violence, plus, your calls and IMs!

We think of our natural environment as a subset of history, like studying the history of warfare or economics. But in truth, climate is the driving force of humanity, and understanding our climate helps us to understand life on earth in an entirely different way. Of all natural disasters, earthquakes are amongst the most impactful and the most destructive. The tragic Turkey–Syria earthquake on the 6th of February, 2023 came with a deadly cost, and will likely change the futures of both nations. With us is Peter Frankopan, Professor of Global History at Oxford University and author of the soon to be published book, The Earth Transformed: An Untold History. Peter will guide us through the main themes of climate history, how it has impacted on the human species, and it's power to change our future.Produced by James Hickmann and mixed by Stuart Beckwith.If you'd like to learn more, we have hundreds of history documentaries, ad-free podcasts and audiobooks at History Hit - subscribe to History Hit today!Download the History Hit app from the Google Play store.Download the History Hit app from the Apple Store.

There's a lot going on in this episode as we look back on the 1-1 draw with Brentford on Saturday. The Arsenal performance is one thing, but there's a lot of discussion of VAR, Lee Mason 'forgetting' to do his job, and how it feels like we've been robbed of two points. We acknowledge a good Brentford display, and ask whether there might be any kind of silver lining to the officials making such a bad decision. There's chat about the game itself, especially with Man City on the horizon, the atmosphere in the stadium as the title race reality really sinks in, and lots more – including questions about how we cope with the deep block, possible changes for Wednesday and squad rotation in general, Erling Haaland's reported injury, the standard of officiating, and the new stadium artwork.Help the Turkey/Syria earthquake appeal here: https://www.dec.org.uk/Get extra bonus content and help support Arseblog by becoming an Arseblog Member on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/arseblog Hosted on Acast.

In Turkey, it's taken two days for government aid to reach some of the areas hardest hit by Monday's devastating earthquakes, leaving residents and volunteers to manage rescue and relief efforts. And much of the areas in northern Syria hit hardest by the disaster had already been devastated by years of civil war, making it even more challenging to bring in humanitarian relief. Also, this corner of the globe sits at the intersection of three tectonic plates, including the Arabian Plate moving northward into Europe. We learn about the science behind these massive quakes. Plus, a campaign in France targets "macho" driving.

In Episode 291 of Hidden Forces, Demetri Kofinas speaks with Joshua Landis. Landis is the director of the Center for Middle East Studies at the University of Oklahoma and a widely recognized Syria expert. He was last on the podcast over three years ago to discuss the then-ongoing invasion of northern Syria by the Turkish military and the long-term withdrawal of American forces from the Middle East and Central Asia. The background for today's conversation are the ongoing negotiations between Turkey, Russia, and Syria and President Erdoğan's desire to expand Turkey's military presence in northern Syria. Erdoğan's stated aim is to create a larger buffer zone in which to transfer Syrian refugees and from which to defend Turkey from the threat posed by an independent Kurdish state aligned with elements of The Kurdistan Workers' Party (PKK). Ankara's jingoistic rhetoric may be in part responsible for bringing Russia and Syria to the table and we may be on the verge of a reset in Turkish-Syrian relations and a reproachment between President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan and President Bashar al-Assad. The implications of such a reset would be profound for the Syrian people and is further evidence of Turkey's bid for strategic autonomy. It is also reflective of the emerging geopolitical complexities of the Middle East and Europe, which have only been exacerbated by the war in Ukraine. Joshua Landis and Demetri spend the first hour of their conversation focused mostly on the historical antecedents of the conflict in Syria and the larger American presence in the Middle East. They devote the second hour to assessing long-term prospects for Turkey as a regional power, the role of the EU and NATO as counterbalancing forces to Turkish aggression in the Aegean, and the prospects for normalization of relations between Turkey and Syria and what this means for the US and Europe long-term.
