The new dangers in Syria after Assad's fall

Listen on

Episode notes

Today on GPS, the scenes coming out of post-Assad Syria are extraordinary: prisoners freed, families reunited, a missing American found. Now comes the tough part: putting a country of dueling factions back together ... under the leadership of a group that's deemed a terror organization by the United States and many other countries. I'll talk to Richard Haass and Kim Ghattas about Syria's uncertain future.

And ... Syria has one of the world's biggest humanitarian emergencies for many years. But what are the OTHER global crises that the world can't afford to ignore RIGHT NOW? David Miliband of the International Rescue Committe will tell us.

Plus, Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm on the Biden's administration's work to fight climate change ... before the Trump team comes to power.
