Turkey slows process of resolving Armenian border dispute
A day after Turkish Prime Minister Tayyip Erdogan signed an agreement with Armenia to end a border dispute, he backtracked on the deal, demanding assurances from Armenia about its relations with Azerbaijan. We speak to Caucasus expert Svante Cornell on what this means for the region.

Rwanda praises China for investing in Africa

China has invested more than 400 million US dollars in Africa over the past three years, and Rwandan President Paul Kagame has endorsed Beijing's approach. We ask Africa expert Dr Klaas van Walraven whether President Kagame has the right idea.

Fitna sparks pro-Muslim feelings in the US

Geert Wilders may have intended to promote what he calls the dangers of Islam in his controversial film Fitna, but in the US it had the opposite effect when it was screened at a high school. We hear from Bill Cruey, whose daughter was inspired to spread a message of tolerance after seeing the film.
