An interview with soon-to-be head of the European Central Bank Christine Lagarde about the dangers facing the global economy. With the global economy at risk of recession, Lagarde, who led the International Monetary Fund, gives a candid interview covering a range of issues from Brexit to the threat of nationalism. The first woman to head the ECB, Lagarde is unhappy with only two percent of bank presidents being female and suggests a clear correlation between good management and the number of women on executive boards. While she names Trump as a challenge to the global economy, she maintains international trade is the key to cohesive foreign relations and urges policy makers to make a shift towards transparency.

An interview with Maria Ressa, a journalist in the Philippines. Ressa details the oppressive regime of President Rodrigo Duterte that threatens violence against the press and creates a constant sense of danger. Ressa was named the Time magazine person of the year for her reporting on Duterte’s aggressive drug war, under threats of prison and violence. She has been arrested twice. Ressa says she will not be intimidated out of her battle for truth in the Philippines. Salvador Panelo, a presidential spokesman claims that criticisms of Duterte’s drug war are exaggerated. Ressa’s website has reported Duterte’s administration has killed over 20,000 people in the drug war, while the administration claim only 5,000. In the last 3 years, a dozen journalists in the Philippines have been shot or beaten to death, and Ressa has been dismissed as “fake news” by Duterte. Includes an interview with Salvador Panelo, a spokesman for Duterte.

The Lebanese Civil War saw 170,000 dead, 1 million displaced and 17,000 people still missing.
