What Hope?

What Hope?

What hope is there amidst rising violence in Mexico and Afghanistan's 'forever war'? Kate Adie introduces stories and insight form correspondents around the world: The rich and poor in Mexico City may live in seemingly different worlds, but they are united by a fear of violence ahead of local and national elections. Could the prospect of peace talks in Afghanistan lead to the end of forty years of war? Lyse Doucet finds a tiny ray of hope. When Jenny Hill first met Syrian refugee Eli at the height of the migrant crisis in 2015, he seemed as thrilled to be in Abensberg as the German town was to have him. But a lot has changed since then… Niall O’Gallagher’s search for the plotters behind the clandestine operation in which volunteers smuggled ballot boxes into Catalonia for its disputed referendum leads him to an unlikely location. And Benjamin Zand manages to secure an interview with one of Venezuela’s notorious kidnap gangs – only to be accused of being an undercover policeman.
