For in-depth analysis and a deeper perspective, FRANCE 24's François Picard is joined by our International Affairs Editor Kethevane Gorjestani and they welcome Dr. Aghiad Ghanem, Fellow Researcher at SciencesPo's Centre for International Studies (CERI) and Academic Advisor / Program Manager at the Paris School of International Affairs (PSIA).
