Now trying my best to make sense of International Relations, conflict and security over on YouTube:

- #Syria recently launched an offensive to retake the Kurdish-held areas in the north and northeast of the country. While a ceasefire is now in place, and the government has offered new political and cultural rights, what happens next? youtu.be/GN0CvEFoTmw
- For decades, #Morocco and #Algeria have been at odds, not least of all over #WesternSahara. But as the Trump Administration adds their dispute to its long list of conflicts to be resolved, could it really succeed in forging a new relationship between these North African rivals? youtu.be/WUB-Q4pMxA8
- Reminded today that a low point of my professional life was being stuck between Nadhim Zahawi and Kwasi Kwarteng for lunch the day after the Brexit result. Soul crushingly depressing. (For Americans, think being stuck between Kristi Noem and Pete Hegseth the day after Trump’s election win.)

- There’s a lot of talk about the Monroe Doctrine. But what exactly is it? And how did it emerge and evolve? More to the point, are we now seeing a “Donroe Doctrine”? youtu.be/IdK0x2laNLE
- On 26 December, #Israel became the first UN member to recognise #Somaliland, much to the anger of #Somalia and widespread international disapproval. But what exactly lay behind the decision and what does it mean? youtu.be/D0kqdErR4ns
- Who really protects #humanrights in Europe? Conflict and populism pose a growing threat to fundamental rights and freedoms. But are the institutions put in place to protect them still up to the job? It was great discussing all this with @drandrewforde.bsky.social youtu.be/Z6MaOMzJ-e8 #ECHR #CoE
- This month marks the 30th anniversary of Dayton Peace Accords, which ended the brutal war in #Bosnia. But how do things stand today? What’s worked and what hasn’t? And is a new conflict really looming, as many have warned? Good to discuss all this with @ianbancroft.bsky.social youtu.be/jjfeaINkAZQ

- Reposted by James Ker-LindsayThis is an absolutely fantastic video by @jameskerlindsay.bsky.social : "Could Britain rejoin Europe?" www.youtube.com/watch?v=9KKk...
- Eight years ago, hundreds of thousands of #Rohingya were forced to flee #Myanmar. Today they’re forgotten, living in dire conditions in the world’s largest refugee camp in #Bangladesh. But as resources are stretched, there’s pressure for them to return home. But will they ever? youtu.be/_ltGPLDcFoM
