Saying Goodbye To The Kojo Nnamdi Show
On this last episode, we look back on 23 years of joyous, difficult and always informative conversation.
In recent elections, Lebanese voters sent a pro-Western majority to parliament, denying a challenge from the militant Hezbollah. We look at the challenges ahead for the newly-named Prime Minister Saad Hariri — son of slain former Prime Minister Rafik Hariri — and look at the foreign powers like Syria, Saudi Arabia, and the U.S. are likely to play.
Guests
- Joshua Landis Co-Director of the Center for Peace Studies at the University of Oklahoma; Author of SyriaComment.com blog
- Mona Yacoubian Director, Lebanon Working Group, U.S. Institute of Peace
