The Arab Spring, one year later (2012x3)

Data emisji: Sty 31, 2012

The Arab Spring is not yet over; it has evolved and it's much more complex than last year. Every nation and country is different and every state dealt differently with the unrest. In Tunisia and Egypt the leaders were quick to step down. Libya experienced a civil war, while the president of Yemen is leaving through a negotiated deal. The unrest in Bahrain and Saudi Arabia is not over yet and Syria has become a geopolitical battlefield. To make matters even more complicated the Iranians are exploiting religion in the region to expand their sphere of influence.
