In-depth reporting and analysis from a global perspective, as Turkish forces gather on the Syrian border in a threat to attack Kurdish militia backed by the US.
As Turkish tanks gather on the Syrian border - is one NATO country about to attack a Kurdish militia backed by another - the United States? We speak to senior advisor to the Turkish President Gulnur Aybet. We also have an interview with the new Secretary of State for Northern Ireland - Karen Bradley - on the day she announces fresh talks to restore power-sharing at Stormont. Plus: Zimbabwe's new President announces elections - will they be free and fair? A murdered Russian politician is honoured in America's capital...and the drone that saves you from drowning. We speak to Steven Tearce, head of the volunteer surf lifesavers network behind the rescue.
