In today’s program, we will continue with the discussion on “anti-terrorism”. As the world becomes unstable with outbreaks of regional conflicts, terrorism has shown signs of rising, or the question might be, has it ever left? Regional conflicts increase the flow of weapons, while an increasingly segmented global financial system makes it harder to track terrorist activities.
What efforts are needed to combat terrorism at the national or international level? How should individuals view terrorism rationally?
On our program today we have Dr. Victor J. Willi, Executive Director at the Middle East Institute Switzerland, a think tank working exclusively on the Middle East and North Africa. Dr. Willi shared with us his views on terrorism in a more fragmented world, and how China and mid-powers like countries in the Middle East are playing a bigger role in mediation and conflict resolution, to settle the root causes of terrorism.
